| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
With a view to clarifying the factors which promote citizens’ activities of looking after those who need support, this study analyzed existing cases in multiple urban areas where such activities have already spread to a certain extent. The analysis revealed that the citizens under study shared information about the role and limits of social welfare workers’ activities and the possibility of the occurrence of solitary death, interacted between different citizens’ groups, and held collaborative events and meetings on a daily basis, thereby having a good motive to look after others and committing to collaboration. In addition, it was found that social welfare workers obtained information about the situation of those who lived in apartments and needed support, by deepening the friendship with the apartment managers.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
わが国において、支え合う地域づくりが求められている。その1つの活動として、見守り活動がある。これまでの研究では、住民がいかにして活動を推進したのかに着目したものは少なかった。この点に着目した研究を行った結果、住民による独創的な数々の取り組みが、見守り活動の普及に結実していることが明らかとなった。そして、それら取り組みは、先行事例を有する地域において、一定の共通性がみられるようである。今後も事例を積み上げる必要はあるが、本研究により得られた知見は、見守り活動の推進に寄与しうるものと考えられる。
