Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research was to compare methods of creating community-based welfare plans in 3 major Japanese designated cities : Yokohama, Nagoya and Osaka. The data discussed below were collected from local governments of the above mentioned cities. In the first stage we attempted to clarify and analyze the comparative approach of each of the local governments in creating the plan. We used questionnaires which included the background and procedure of creating the plan, description of the district covered in planning, and the relationship between the city government and the council of social welfare. The results of the survey showed that there are three main types of method adopted by each local government : Yokohama-type model, which we named the government initiative model, Nagoya-type model which we called the council of social welfare initiative model, and Osaka-type model, the collaborative model. In 2007 we focused on the collaborative model in Osaka where the council of social welfare entered into negotiations with the local government through making Action Plan. It is reasonable to presume that the role of the council of social welfare as a promoter of community-based welfare is more important than the local government, because, in spite of the decentralization reform in big cities, local governments have not created any community-based administration system at the district level. We regard the role of the community-worker employed in the council of social welfare agency as the key person in the collaborative model.
