碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 行政管理碩士學程 === 89 === It has been growing fast in the economical development in Taiwan in the recent years. A large number of people in the rural areas have moved to the urban areas. It results in a phenomenon of low density of population and descending agriculture in the rural areas. On the other hand, people who are from the rural areas and living in cities often see themselves as passerby. They do not care the living matters around them. It results in poor relations between these people and their communities. In order to rebuild active communities to reshow activity and to redevelop the harmonious relations of “people and people” and “people and environment”, CCA (Council for Cultural Affairs, Executive Yuan) proposes a policy of “Integrated Community Development”（ICD） to achieve the above goals by referring to Japanese Machizukuri. From the view of culture and art toward communities, it is hoped to inspire residents to participate in the public affairs automatically. Through negotiation, communication and discussion, residents who live in the same community can have a shared vision to build a humane hometown. Under the tide of global competitiveness, people realize that “sustainable revolution” will become the surviving direction of organizations in the future. Thus, the concept of “Organizational Learning” has been proposed and is focused on how to build organizational learning to fit in the possible situation in the future. The organizational learning includes “building shared vision”,“improving mental models”，“personal mastery” and “team learning”. These points have the same ideas as ICD which points out a central idea of “building new people, new society and new living value”. This research tried to build the model of how “Organizational Learning” could be applied to ICD by documentary method, observational method, interview survey, comparative study and qualitative research. It is also including integrated community development case study of some Japanese cases and Her-Pyng Old Street in Dashi. Some conclusion and suggestions will be referred to be the reference of other related sectors in the future. It concludes here that (1) ICD is a kind of creative cultural policy and must be carried out by the corporation of residents, public sectors, experts and local private sectors.（2）ICD changes the previous thinking and operating models. Promoting organizational learning can overcome difficulties.（3）If all communities can promote organizational learning, ICD can work smoothly. Then every community has its unique characteristic in Taiwan to build a citizen society. Our country can develop stably and sustainably. Other related suggestions are：（1）community residents：who should care and love their communities, find out community issues, and participate in the community matters positively.（2）planning team：which should realizes itself as an instructor to help communities and learn from them. （3）local magistrate：who should have sustainable idea to proceed organizational inner integration and develop a rule of public participation. （4）staffs：who should confirm their own abilities and help communities to proceed ICD with sincere service.（5）CCA：which should strengthen planning contents and proceed the integrated work between the different sectors positively.
