從社區參與到建立社區與民眾共生文化,以蟾蜍山煥民新村生態聚落為例【The Transition from Community Participation to the Establishment of a Symbiotic Culture between Community and Public: A Case Study of the Ecological Settlement in Toad Mountain Huanmin Village.】

The Toad Mountain settlement is located at the southern end of the Taipei Basin, with a long history that spans the Qing Dynasty's Gongguan origins, the development ofthe Taiwan Liugong Canal River basin, and the industrial and agricultural policies ofthe Japanese colonial era. The area, adjacent to National Taiwan University, was once an important research institution for agricultural development during the Japanese era,nurturing numerous professionals in agriculture and entomology. With the relocation of the Nationalist government to Taiwan, the topography of Toad Mountain made it asite for the establishment of the Air Force Operations Command, which continues tomaintain a military landscape. This also led to the creation of the Huan ming New Village, where unassigned military families built their own homes, resulting in the development of three unique forms of community settlement: "government dormitories," "regulated military dependents' villages," and "self-built housing." These forms of coexistence have continued to this day.As the local community has gradually developed, strong community associations have been established, local artists have moved in, and long-term cooperation with National Taiwan University’s faculty and students has been ongoing. Later, the Taipei City Cultural Foundation's involvement has focused the area's development on four major areas: Satoyama ecological learning, urban agriculture and food education, intergenerational neighborhood networks, and cultural preservation spaces. These initiatives have contributed to the creation of a new ecological symbiotic culture and promoted joint maintenance with community residents, resulting in a new landscape of symbiotic participation between the Toad Mountain ecological "community settlement" and the city of Taipei. This paper, through participatory observation and literature analysis, aims to explore how to build a sense of belonging and cohesion among residents during the community development process. The analysis reveals that building community culture should be based on shared historical experiences, connections between space and memory, collaboration between higher education and practice, community autonomy, and the participation of local activities and external historical memories. The paper hopes to provide insights into the sustainable development of community building and local revitalization through specific cases, emphasizing the importance of establishing interpersonal connections between internal community, local memory, and external residents, thereby promoting the long-term development of the community and locality.
