Community Building: Start from My Own Needs, Collaborating, Engaging and Cooperating with the Power of Collaboration

Communities form based on the needs of their members, where individuals with similar demands come together to cooperate and move towards cooperative associations or social enterprises. Efforts are also made to include those who cannot directly participate in these communities, forming “a community of cooperation and inclusion.” For example, in Wonju, there is a senior cooperative where elderly individuals create their jobs without taking opportunities away from the youth. Similarly, in Munrae-dong Creative Village, artists have formed a community. This lecture prompts the audience to consider their own “needs” and how communities formed around those needs should progress. Today, as mobility technology has made society more fluid and anonymous, it questions, “What kind of community should we create?”

Examples of Food Community and Village Enterprises

While everyone acknowledges the importance of community, building a thriving community is complex. Recently, social-economic researchers have been concerned that the government or local government support system, as part of an “Institutionalised social economy,” could harm community formation. Moreover, starting social enterprises only to access support funds is also problematic. This lecture emphasises that socially oriented enterprises should be established on community principles and should work to expand and revitalise communities. The lecturer shares the beginning and operation ways of “Gwacheon Cooperative Village Café TONG,” in which the lecturer has participated until now, and proposes to make a picture of an ideal community.

Examples of Co-parenting and Caring Community Movements

The necessity of community in modern society’s fluid and anonymous life is constantly underscored. The formation and operation of various communities, fueled by people’s demands, are evidence of this. This lecture focuses on efforts made towards forming communal childcare and care communities based on actual cases. The lecture explores the four educational philosophies of cooperative childcare: ecological education, cultural education, relational education, and integrated education. It also explains how cooperatives operate. It also introduces overseas examples such as the communal childcare project, “KARABAK,” in Bologna, Italy, and domestic instances.
