全国大会（論文発表会）

The promotion of compact living bases is now one of the popular means of enhancing the sustainability of local communities in rural areas. This study aims to clarify the actual situation of community-based activities related to compact living bases and to evaluate these activities. We conducted a questionnaire survey of the local governments.The results are as follows. First, half of the local governments have organized new community-based organizations, creating new activity plans. Second, they attempted to introduce new activities to sustain local communities in addition to traditional ones. Third, local governments can be categorized into four types by the degree of activities evaluation and management of community-based organizations.
