2012 Annual Report of Center on the Establishment and Evaluation for Community Welfare Policy

Abstract

As inequality in community welfare levels increases, effective community welfare policies become more important. This study promotes community welfare policies in order to reduce differences in residents’ welfare levels within communities. To do so, the study examines: 1) how to create an effective evaluation system for welfare policy, 2) what roles welfare foundations can take to help their communities, 3) how to strategize in establishing local welfare foundations, and 4) how to create effective community welfare policies for the public. To examine these points, a research team analyzed related works, and participated in ongoing community welfare policy forums that included scholars, government officers, and employees of welfare foundations.
