社區營造是指社區內的居民自發性從事自己社區內的公共建設,在參與規劃、設計、營造、成果分享中,凝聚社區共識,促進居民關心共同生活環境品質之提升。本研究以台中石岡龍興里為例研究方法採用文獻回顧與相關專業人士訪談資料彙整分析。研究發現,社區規劃師(專家學者)從中協助居民與協調溝通,凝聚社區共識成效不斐,因此社區營造過程中,社區規劃師扮演了很重要的角色之一。 研究也發現,社區營造過程包括居民參與、討論、共識、行動。社區營造從發現社區生活中的問題開始,進而了解問題的原因,擬定解決策略、尋找解決方法、尋求資源協助、實務進行操作、持續經驗累積,打造屬於自己地方特色的社區。
Community management has been an important public affair including planning, design, construction and result sharing of public development facilities by the local residents in a community. In addition, motivation, inspiration, and consensus among all the residents are critical for a complete and successful development project to not only meet basic needs but also significantly upgrade the living standard and quality of the residents in the community. The research was conducted based on a case study of Lung-Sheng village in Chikang, Taichung, Taiwan, for which the related community development data and articles were collected and analyzed to identify the major issues in the community development plan and improvement tactics. Selected residents and professionals with strong connection with local community development management were identified and interviewed to obtain the first-hand field information and opinion regarding the community development for the study area. Results of the study indicate that agricultural and tourism are the most promising elements in community development management which requires involvement and corporation among the residents, professional community planners and township government officials. In the study, community development management was carried out through a series of town-hall meeting and public hearing to formulate the consensus, planning and action for the local development projects. Problems and difficulties imposing negative impacts on the community development were also identified and studied to obtain proper solution and improvement tactics to help seek appropriate resources and means for better development management of the community with local characteristics and uniqueness.
