Urban Farm DB summary

Studying public-private community gardens in Koto Ward through interviews with the ward, developers, and participant surveys, this paper identifies their potential as models for area-contribution development burden systems in new development and challenges to sustaining activities.

Key points

  • 1This study investigated cases of public-private partnership community gardens utilizing block parks in Koto Ward, Tokyo.
  • 2The research was conducted through literature and internet surveys, interviews with the ward and developers, and surveys of activity participants.
  • 3These community gardens were evaluated as pioneering for their redevelopment of existing public facilities (block parks).
  • 4They were suggested to be a potential model for a new area-contribution development burden system linked to new developments.
  • 5Challenges remain in forming the main body for community garden activities and ensuring their continuity.
  • 6Administrative support is required for establishing multi-stakeholder collaboration and for evolving the development burden system into a general regional contribution system.

本研究において、公民連携によるコミュニティガーデンを用いた街区公園の利活用に関して東京都江東区の事例を取り上げ、先駆性や発展可能性、課題について明らかにした。研究方法は、文献調査やインターネット調査に加え、区やデベロッパーなどの各関係主体へのインタビュー調査と活動参加者へのアンケート調査により研究を進めた。公民連携のコミュニティガーデンは先駆性として街区公園という既存公共施設の再整備という点、発展可能性として新規開発にともなう新しい地域貢献型の開発負担制度につながり得るモデルになり得る点で評価できる。ただ、CG活動の主体形成と活動の継続性の確保において課題が残されている。また、多主体連携の体制構築への支援や開発負担制度から地域貢献制度への展開が一般制度化にむけた行政側からの支援や必要な対応として求められる。

Why it matters for urban farming

This research offers important insights into how urban farms can utilize existing public spaces, especially places like block parks, and contribute to the community. The public-private partnership model presents new possibilities for funding and land use when citizens take the lead in operating urban farms. The identified challenges regarding activity continuity and multi-stakeholder collaboration will help citizens consider how to build cooperative systems with local governments and developers, and secure support for the long-term success of urban farms.
