United Nations Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA)

The United Nations Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA) was created by the General Assembly in 1951. Its efforts were focussed on industry, mining, agriculture, education, housing and health in order to improve the economy and promote Korea's long-term growth. Here, you can watch a short slideshow with some digitized photographs taken in Korea.
