  • This study analyzed the factors affecting urban residents' expectations and participation in community gardens to present basic data of guidelines for community garden management. Urban citizens valued the necessity of community gardens overall, especially residents with outdoor gardens. The experience of private gardens was important in perceiving the need for community gardens, which are public spaces. The creation of community gardens had high expectations for social aspects such as improving quality of life, health promotion, and community revitalization. In particular, residents living in individual housing have high expectations for revitalization of the community, and community gardens can be a mediator for forming and maintaining local communities. Through this, the citizens' perception on the role and function of the garden as a community space could be examined. Expectations for quality of life, health promotion, and community revitalization are factors affecting the necessity of community garden. Participation was high in the creation and management of the community garden, and the necessity of community gardens, expectation for community revitalization, and expectation for environmental purification are factors that affect participation in the management of community gardens. The amount of donations that the residents are willing to pay for community garden management was KRW 75,222 /year on average. Overall, residents with higher need for community gardens and higher social expectation showed higher participation. Urban citizens have high expectations for community gardens, and they perceive the importance of social aspects more than personal aspects such as community revitalization and quality of life. As a strategy for increasing community involvement, it is necessary to set up the processes, determine participants' composition and roles, and establish a system to promote participation. Considering welfare aspects such as community revitalization and improvement of residents' quality of life, motivation and administrative support for participation in the creation and management of community gardens will serve as important factors.

  • Under the premise of unbalanced development between urban and rural areas, this study raised criticism that the balanced national development policies in South Korea, which had been promoted in earnest after 'the Participatory Government' has adversely deepened the development gap between urban and rural areas by promoting the development of urban. In the meantime, the agricultural economy that supported the rural economy has gradually collapsed after reckless market opening, and due to the balanced national development policy focusing on urban infrastructure construction, rural areas are facing a crisis of 'depopulation' and 'regional extinction.' For this reason, many local governments have recently recognized the public values of agriculture and have introduced 'agrarian basic income' for the sustainability of agriculture. However, there is a limit to overcoming the crisis in rural areas because the population of farmers among rural residents is only 25%. Therefore, this study proposes the necessity of introducing the basic income for rural residents as a new paradigm for balanced development between urban and rural areas beyond the existing policy limits, based on surveys of opinions of residents living in Chungchengnam-do, South Korea and experts on the introduction of 'basic income for rural residents' in the future.

  • Urban parks and open spaces provide the community residents with the most easily accessible source for outdoor recreation, contributing also to the improvement of quality of natural environment in urban area. The demands of urban residents' for more and better green area are ever-increasing. However, the level of most urban open spaces which are easily accessible for residents are not satisfactory to meet the residents' demand in availability and in quality as well. Most existing urban open spaces are simply built of green areas only or have been developed in almost identical design with little consideration for individual uniqueness of the site. When developing neighbourhood parks in urban housing complexes, for example, little consideration is being given to topographical conditions, interrelation with the adjacent green area, or viability of the urban ecosystem. In many cases, urban park development projects are being done with serious negligence of natural properties of the site, by even destroying existing healthy woodlands. for instance. The objectives of this study are; -To survey on the domestic and the overseas cases of regulatory systems, development status and planning methods for urban open space. -To identify underlying issues of residental park developments in urban housing projects and establish appropriate improvement measures thereof, by studing and analyzing current-use data of developed urban parks and management status thereof. -To establish improved standards for urban open space planning, by integrating above surveys and studies, and recommendation for revision of related legislation is also presented to implement these standards.

  • 1. 건강증진을 위한 농촌형과 도시형을 특성을 고려한 다양한 시설 및 프로그램의 개발이 필요하다. 순천시 주민의 건강실천행위는 미흡하다고 할 수 있으며 특히 농촌지역은 기본적인 의료시설 뿐만 아니라 건강증진을 위한 체육시설도 갖추고 있지 않다. 건강 행태를 실천하도록 유도하기 위한 다양한 시설과 교육프로그램을 개발하여 올바른 생활습관이 되도록 유도해야 할 것이다. 2. 건강증진을 위하여 지역사회와의 제휴를 형성하여 지역 구성원들이 적극 참여하도록 해야 한다. 좋은 보건교육프로그램이 있다 하더라도 지역 주민의 참여와 지원 없이는 성공할 수 없다. 그러므로 사기관, 자선기관, 공공보건조직을 프로그램에 따라 연계하여 실질적으로 전 주민의 참여를 유도할 수 있어야 한다. 3. 보건소의 역할에 대한 중요성을 재인식하고 지역의료체계의 핵심적인 중추기관으로서의 기능을 재정립해야 한다. 의료시설이 미비한 농촌지역의 경우는 보건지소와 보건진료소가 의료시설의 역할을 대행할 수 있는 수준으로 준비가 되어 접근성이 부족한 주민들의 불편함을 보완할 수 있다. 보건소가 지금까지 수행해온 기능을 재정리하고 지역주민이 무엇을 원하고 있는가를 파악하여 지역보건의료에 관련된 전체적인 계획을 수립하는데 기초로 삼아야 할 것이다. 이제까지의 사업실적위주의 업무에서 탈피하여 구체적인 기획을 수행하는 의사결정기구로서의 역할에 그 중요성을 두어야 할 것이다. 4. 지역주민의 요구사항을 적극 수용할 수 있는 정보시스템의 구축이 필요하다. 현대는 정보화 시대이기 때문에 빠른 업무 수행이 그 성과의 승패를 좌우할 수 있을 것이다. 현장에서 직접 주민의 요구를 수용하여 정책으로 처리하기 위해서는 정보화가 필수적이다. 순천시인 경우 그 특성상 농촌형과 도시형이 함께 존재하는데, 현재와 같이 일일이 개별 방문만을 통한 관리는 시간적으로나 경제적으로 효율적이지 않으므로 주민들의 요구를 정확히 파악하여 필요한 정보관리를 위해서는 보건의료 정보화의 구축이 시급하다.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Urban-rural inequities in health and mortality exist in Korea, a highly centralized developed country. The potential impact of multiple health-related lifestyle behaviors on mortality and difference between urban and rural areas is not fully understood. This study aimed to investigate the effect of high-risk health behaviors on all-cause mortality among residents living in urban and rural in Korea. SUBJECTS/METHODS: Cross-sectional analyses were conducted on 8,298 adults aged 40 yrs and older from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2015. High-risk behaviors were defined as having poor diet quality, current smoking, high-risk drinking, or insufficient physical activity. Mortality status was linked to the Cause of Death data followed up to December 31, 2019. The associations between all-cause mortality and high-risk behaviors were evaluated using Cox proportional hazard regression models adjusted for age, sex, education, income, and survey year. Population attributable fractions (PAFs) were calculated, and effect modification analysis was conducted. Participants were stratified by residential area (urban or rural). RESULTS: During the follow-up (median: 5.4 yrs), 313 deaths occurred. A higher proportion of rural residents than urban residents engaged in multiple high-risk behaviors (28.9% vs. 22.6%; P < 0.0001). As individual factors, a greater risk of mortality was associated with poor diet quality, current smoking, and inadequate physical activity, and these tendencies persisted in rural residents, especially for diet quality. Multiple high-risk behaviors were positively associated with a higher risk of mortality in Koreans living in urban and rural areas. PAF (95% confidence interval) was 18.5% (7.35-27.9%) and 29.8% (16.1-40.2%) in urban and rural residents, respectively. No additive or multiplicative effect of the region was observed. CONCLUSION: The higher prevalence of multiple high-risk lifestyle behaviors in rural residents may explain the higher mortality in rural areas compared to urban areas. Comprehensive public health policies to improve health-related behaviors in rural populations may be needed.

  • With the increasing number of migrants from urban to rural areas in Korea, Population inflow policies have helped increase the number of urban-to-rural migrants which has eased the labor shortage in rural areas.. But, there are new problems in rural areas caused by the "perception gap in regard to harmony, awareness, pride and opportunity to meet" between the urban-to-rural migrants and the original residents. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting the harmony between the urban-to-rural migrants and residents. A survey was conducted among 70 people living in Hongseong-gun in Chungcheongnam-do with an aim to come up with proposals for policies that can help resolve these social problems in the mutual understanding of urban-to-rural migrants and original residents. An ordered logit model was used to analyze the effect of the perception gap between the urban-to-rural migrants and the rural residents. The result of the survey showed that most of the urban-to-rural migrants believed that the increase in urban-to-rural migrants did not bring harmony to rural areas because of the perception gap. Based on these results, we concluded that the following three policy alternatives would be needed: first, development of urban-to-rural migrant education programs for relatively young men; second, a policy supporting various forms of community gathering in a rural society; third, diversification of urban-to-rural migrant education programs such as communication program and conflict management program, etc.

  • The purpose of this study were to investigate the socio-economic impacts of urban-to-rural migration on the rural community and to identify the factors influencing rural residents' recognition of the socio-economic impacts of urban-to-rural migration on the rural community. For the purpose, this study analyzed Korea Rural Economic Institute's rural residents survey(2016), using multiple regression model. The main finding of this study were as follows: Positive social impacts of urban-to-rural migration on rural community were (1) contributing to community sustainability through population growth, (2) contributing to securing agricultural human resources, and others. Negative social impacts of urban-to-rural migration on rural community were (1) increasing unnecessary complaints and deepening distrust, (2) weakening of community consciousness, and others. Positive economic impacts of urban-to-rural migration on rural community were (1) increasing the value of residents' property, (2) contributing to local finance through increased local tax revenue, and others. Negative economic impacts of urban-to-rural migration on rural community were (1) difficulty of scaling farmland due to small-scale farming, (2) land shortage caused by rising land prices, and (3) fierce competition to secure labor force. According to the multiple regression analysis, the major factors influencing rural residents' recognition of the socio-economic impacts of urban-to-rural migration were (1) villagers' general attitude toward urban-to-rural migrants, (2) urban-to-rural migrants' community participation, (3) age, and (4) fitness of village in urban-to-rural migration.

  • 본 연구는 부산시의 북항재개발사업을 사례로 항만형 도시재생사업에서 주민참여 방안과 효과적인 주민참여를 위한 도시마케팅 방안을 분석하고, 이를 통해 도시재생사업의 활성화 방안을 모색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 우선, 설문결과를 보면, 북항재개발사업의 주민참여 방안으로는 여론조사, 공론조사, 시민자문위원회의 타당성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 주민의견수렴이 가장 필요한 단계로는 최종 대안을 선택하는 단계로 나타났다. 사업단계별로 적절한 시민의견 수렴방법으로는 시민의 가치관 판단 단계에서는 여론조사가, 나머지 모든 단계에서 전문가위원회를 가장 적절한 방법으로 나타났다. 둘째로, 주민참여의 활성화를 위한 도시마케팅 방안을 보면, 도시마케팅의 주체는 지방자치단체가, 도시마케팅의 과제로는 도시 공간 질 향상과 같은 인프라 요소가 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 도시마케팅 방안으로는 항만도시로서의 이미지를 부각하고 외국인 관광객 대상으로 홍보하는 것이 적절한 것으로 나타난다. 결론적으로 효과적인 주민참여와 도시마케팅을 통해, 지역의 특성을 살리면서 다른 경쟁지역과의 차별적인 창조적 개발 방안이 도출됨으로 항만형 도시재생사업이 활성화될 것으로 판단된다.
