AbstractA person cannot live alone and a society could not develop in isolation. People have helped each other to live since a long time ago. A society and a nation also did the same. Development assistance or technical assistance is one of mechanisms by which developed countries can help developing countries. Recently, a developing country tries to help other developing country through technical cooperation programs. This is called Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries (TCDC). However, it is said that TCDC programs have contributed less to economic development of developing countries than expected. So it is necessary for us to find new approaches to increase efficiency and effectiveness of TCDC programs. This research study focuses on the development of a Technical Cooperation (TC) Model to increase the potentials for Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries (TCDC). This Mode l uses Korea as the case study to illustrate how the government of a developing country should prepare and what are the prerequisites for TCDC to be effective. It is expected that the TC Model will greatly contribute to close relationship among least (less) developed countries, developing countries, and developed countries, especially to science and technology promotion and development in developing countries.
