of new residents,their reasons for choosing to live in the two districts,and their factors of satisfaction with the new place of residence were examined (Seo, 2002). Community Involvement In the current urban renewal context,social inclusion has become a crucial objective.When discussing achieving sustainable urban renewal,it is seemingly impossible to avoid the issue of 'community involvement'or public participation'. For example,by examining OECD member countries'urban regeneration policy and programmes,Fordham (1993)concluded that improved co-ordination of public programmes,the promotion of sustainable development,and the involvement of the local community are required for solving urban problems. Bagaeen (2006)contrasted experiences of redeveloping former military sites in three countries by focusing on whether citizens participate to promote sustainability.The author concluded that in redeveloping military bases developers must look after the interests of all the parties involved when improving competitive advantages through revenue-generating activities. However,public participation does not necessarily gain support as it may fall into the dilemma of tokenism.Jones (2003)discussed whether participatory and partnership approaches have reached an impasse,by drawing upon the participation experience of the 'developing world'and the findings of a research project studying a major regeneration programme on Merseyside.To improve the participation of 'hard-to-reach'groups,Cinderby (2010)proposed an innovative participatory GIS methodology aimed at overcoming the barriers to engagement experienced by these groups.The application of the method was illustrated with reference to three case studies carried out in UK cities.Under the participatory context,partnership is one positive aspect for sustainable urban renewal.It is defined as "a dynamic relationship amongst diverse actors,based on mutually agreed objectives,pursued through a shared understanding of the most rational division of labour based on the respective comparative advantages of each partner"(Brinkerhoff,2002,P21).The function and relationships of partnership within a group of institutions that comprise the Catholic Church development chain was found to be 'patchy'at all levels(Morse McNamara,2009).Therefore, how to improve partnerships,which is expected to solve multi-faceted problems and also to bring sufficient resources to the development in urban renewal, remains a challenge.
