Abstract
In recent years, there has been a lot of attention paid to activities in which local residents voluntarily form communities. However, spontaneous activities by local residents have not been able to be realized and sustained because there are few opportunities to share their thoughts and feelings with others, or because they do not know how to promote their activities even if they are organized. In this study, we define ”spontaneous resident activities” as activities that generate new activities through a certain ”place” and show the role of platforms in spontaneous resident activities. In this paper, we focus on the spontaneous resident activities in Narashino City and examine whether the activities can be a platform for sharing ideas among multiple projects and generating sympathy among participants.
