What does the 21st Century Settlement look like? The case of Pembroke House.

英国的定居运动始于19世纪80年代初，它提供了一个可以发展积极伙伴关系的空间，受过大学教育的“富人”可以住在贫穷的社区中，以发展社会团结，共同建立一个更好的社区。这些定居点提供社区服务，如教育、培训、家庭医疗和娱乐活动。在伦敦东部和东南部建立了各种定居点。彭布罗克之家是为数不多的以居住为基础的定居点之一，由剑桥大学彭布罗克学院的学生在130多年前建立。在20世纪，随着福利国家的出现，定居点提供的许多福利服务变得市政化，并有所下降。大多数继续失去了“住宅”的特征，然而，彭布罗克大厦仍然保留了住宅作为中心特征，并为六名居民提供住宿，博士生将成为其中之一。如今，彭布罗克大厦是许多社区活动的中心，它也作为一个诚实的经纪人，将各种组织和机构聚集在一起，发展创新的社区倡议。随着由国家、慈善机构、社会企业、非营利组织和私营部门组成的日益多元化的社会福利格局，迫切需要这些类型的组织，它们可以将不同的组织聚集在一起做社会公益，并相应地需要调查如何做到这一点，以及彭布罗克大厦等定居点可以发挥什么作用。该提案将探讨如何将住区概念融入21世纪的社区行动中。本研究将调查以下问题：1。解决方案如何与其他组织和机构互动？在解决方案中，领导是如何起作用的？作为一个诚实的经纪人，结算是如何起作用的？住区概念为当地社区提供了什么？当地社区（用户和非用户）如何看待该解决方案？解决方案如何是可持续的？和解的合适金额是多少？哪种地理环境适合这种类型的社区组织？“居住”的概念提供了什么角色？这项研究的一个不可分割的方面是，学生将作为居民住在彭布罗克大厦内，融入研究空间。这为学生进行民族志研究和“讲述彭布罗克大厦的故事”提供了完美的环境。单一案例研究方法将使研究人员能够对彭布罗克大厦的工作进行丰富而深入的叙述。学生将成为彭布罗克之家团队不可或缺的一员，并在研究过程中分享和交流知识和经验。

The Settlement Movement in England began in the early 1880s to provide a space where an active partnership could be developed, where the university educated 'well-to-do' could live within poor communities to develop a social solidarity in order to build a better neighbourhood together. The settlements provided neighbourhood services such as education, training, home medicine and recreational activities. Various settlements were established in the east end and south east London. Pembroke House is one of the few surviving residence-based settlements that was founded over 130 years ago by students of Pembroke College, University of Cambridge.During the 20th century many of the welfare services that settlements provided became municipalised and declined with the advent of the Welfare State. Most of those that continued lost their feature of 'residence', however, Pembroke House, still retains residence as a central feature and provides accommodation to six residents, the PhD student will become one of these.Today, Pembroke House is a hub for a number of community activities, as well as hosting many of these it also acts as an honest broker that brings various organisations and agencies together to develop innovative community initiatives. With an increasingly pluralist social welfare landscape consisting of state, charity, social enterprise, not for profit and private sectors there is a desperate need for these type of organisations that can bring disparate organisations together to do social good and a corresponding need to investigate how this might be done and what role a settlement such as Pembroke House could play. This proposal will investigate how the settlement concept fits into neighbourhood action in the 21st century.The study will investigate the following questions:1. How does the settlement interact with otherorganisations and agencies?2. How does leadership work in a settlement?3. How can a settlement work as an honest broker?4. What does the settlement concept offer to a localneighbourhood?5. How is the settlement perceived by the local community,both users and non- users?6. How can a settlement be sustainable?7. What is the appropriate size for a settlement?8. Which geographical contexts are appropriate for this typeof community organisation?9. What role does the concept of 'residency' provide?An integral aspect of this research is that the student will be imbedded in the research space by living within Pembroke House as a resident. This provides the perfect context for the student to carry out an ethnographic study and "tell the story of Pembroke House". The single case study approach will allow the researcher to build a rich and in-depth narrative of the work of Pembroke House. The student will be an integral member of the Pembroke House team and will share and exchange knowledge and experiences during the research process.
