Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

従来の建築計画では障害者の「住宅」や「施設」を対象に研究が進められてきたが、本研究では障害者の地域居住を基盤にする必要があり、それを実現するために「活動支援拠点」も必要という視点に立ちその計画手法を提示した点に学術的意義がある。また地域住民の地域組織や商店街・空き家といった地域資源を利活用することで多くの健常者と同様社会のなかで役割をもつこと、多様な社会の場への参加をつくること、さまざまな人と交流することにより地域居住を推進することが効果的であることを示した点に社会的意義がある。
