Abstract
In this Paper, Capability Approach which Amartya Sen asserts was reviewed. It was shown that the past methods are inadequate forevaluating “wellbeing”. The method of evaluating the effect of a community bus from the viewpoint of welfare was proposed. This method based on the capability: the width of a way of life. The contribution of a community bus is evaluated by a spread of the state that various functions can be attained. Going-out action was accounted for function. The welfare bus in Suita-city was taken up as a case study. Consequently, the welfare bus improved the achievement of Functioning.
