Whittiker narrated UNKRA’s achievements and pitfalls trying to avoid judgments with an objective point a view. Nevertheless, as an official historian Mr. Alexandrides published dissertations which were considered to be comprehensive studies of UNKRA activities. His narrative was not published because of a lack of funds once the Agency ceased its activities. Unfortunately, we did not find more details about his involvement or career in the United Nations. Whittiker, in April 1961, appointed as official historian. We used a unpublished historical narrative written by Mr. The preparation of this exhibition involved reading and analyzing archives of the UNKRA collection, in order to show a comprehensive overview of the Agency’s work and outcomes. The UNKRA archives are held by Archives and Records Management Section at the UN’s Headquarters in New York and they are accessible to the public. During UNKRA’s operating period it implemented 260 major projects for a total expenditure of $127 million dollars, which equals $924 million in 2010. Its efforts were focused on industry, mining, agriculture, education, housing and health in order to improve the economy and promote Korea’s long-term growth. UNKRA was finally able to start its programme 180 days after the cessation of hostilities which prevented the Agency to be fully operational because of security issues. To support the Government in its task of reconstruction, the General Assembly created the UN Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) by its resolution 401(v) on 1 December 1950. Shortly after, the Unified Command intervened to try to restore peace and to bring relief to the population. On 25 June 1950, South Korea was attacked by North Korea. The video, the photo galleries and the timelines show the work done by the United Nations Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) in collaboration with the Government of South Korea and its people during this period of reconstruction. The United Nations Archives and Records Management Section presents its virtual exhibition “The United Nations and South Korea : Partners in Reconstruction”.
