Residents have stepped out of their homes to become "community partners", participating in sports events, food festivals... in the Minhang community | residential area | local area
A projectionist, a screen, a projector, a set of speakers... Recently, the former open-air cinema has appeared again on the European Garden Square in the Anning residential area of Jiangchuan Road Street, Minhang District. Before the movie was screened, many viewers coincidentally went to the nearby public welfare market for a stroll. "This ice cream looks very delicious, do you want to try it?" "There is free blood pressure measurement there." "This singer sings really well, it sounds great."
In the evening, a residential area in Anning suddenly became lively. The elderly greet each other and laugh, while the children run and play in groups of three or five. The scorching summer seems to have disappeared here, and the distance between the "most familiar strangers" has narrowed. The "acquaintance community" in memory is quietly returning.
In Jiangchuan Road Street, the aging population is becoming increasingly severe, and many old residential areas have relatively outdated activity facilities. How to stimulate the enthusiasm of residents to jointly build, govern, and share? Nowadays, a residential area in Anning seems to have found a path: with the aim of "Party building leading happiness and tranquility", it excavates and cultivates the endogenous resources and strength of community governance, forms a batch of replicable, promotable, and reference worthy vivid cases, and leads more and more "partners" and "think tanks" to join, transforming residents from service objects to community governance subjects, and building a truly happy and peaceful big home.
Organize activities to allow residents to step out of their homes and integrate into the community
In April of this year, the "Anning Cup" community sports meet, which had been suspended for three years, once again kicked off with the sound of gongs. Various and colorful events such as badminton, youth jump rope, healthy stride, Chinese chess, and leisure ball allowed more than 300 community "athletes" to showcase their skills and enjoy the fun at home.
"This is already the fifth sports meeting in the residential area. Since the successful holding of the first Anning Cup Games in 2017, every session of residents has made plans to meet in the spring, on this familiar field." Chen Chen, Secretary of the Party General Branch of a residential area in Anning, said with a smile.
How was the community sports meet born? Chen Chen said that the most important point is the support of the party building team and co construction units. The space of the venue is the main limiting factor for many old residential areas to carry out activities when they have more heart but less strength. In order to bring more resources, services, and management to the community and better provide precise and refined services for residents, the Party branch of the residential area actively communicates and works together with the co construction units to promote the use of idle space resources by organizing various activities as an opportunity, and to provide them for nearby community events.
For example, using the venue of the jointly built unit Jiangchuan Road Primary School, the first Anning Cup Community Sports Games were held locally, which attracted the attention of residents. That year, the sports meet attracted more than 400 residents to participate. There were no age restrictions or physical conditions on site. Among the participants, there were elderly people in their 60s and children in their 10s, making it a "family mobilization". Everyone's enthusiasm for sports was high, and cheers kept coming and going.
For example, the popular Anning Food Festival, which has also returned after three years of absence, has attracted many "new friends" to participate. They participated as friends, parent-child, neighborhood, and co construction units, forming 30 sets of food stalls, providing nearly 1500 dishes of various colors. The "kitchen gods" have showcased their unique skills, showcasing creativity and skills, meticulously making multiple snacks, desserts, and drinks, attracting residents to take photos and taste them.
"In order to let more residents know about the Anning Food Festival and participate in the Anning Food Festival, we released a recruitment announcement through different social platforms two months before the event." Chen Chen said that at that time, residents in the community, no matter what occupation they were engaged in, no matter how busy their work was, all expressed their desire to participate in the event. So, everyone formed their own teams, some prepared the menu early, prepared the ingredients, cooked the dishes for their families to taste many times, adjusted the taste in time, some brought out the special Dim sum of their hometown, and some prepared their own private dishes, which were brought to the scene for residents to taste for free.
Compared to the traditional food sharing mode in previous years, this year's Anning Food Festival has also set up multiple game challenges such as ball picking, darting, and pot throwing. By participating in activities, players can exchange food vouchers. "By playing games, players can gather points and check in, giving a sense of achievement in passing the level. Even the food they eat feels more delicious," said a resident excitedly.
"The Anning Sports Games and Anning Food Festival have now become brand events in the Anning residential area, attracting more and more community residents to step out of their homes and integrate into the Anning home." Chen Chen said that from the perspective of public participation, the residential area uses themed, branded, and series of cultural and sports activities with Anning characteristics and positive progress, using various exciting projects that are close to life and full of smoke and fire, to gather residents to participate in community construction and jointly build a "beautiful community".
Digitization brings new possibilities to community governance
In recent years, the residential area of Anning has also focused on promoting the digital transformation of community governance, benefiting residents with the power of technology, contemplating the integration and application of community governance and digitization, and creating a warm and breathing "smart tranquility".
"We have always said that we want to improve diversified services, so how can we improve it?" Chen Chen said, "Services are also divided into soft and hard, with hard services as the foundation and soft services as the guarantee. Residential areas are exploring ways to improve services by adding intelligent devices, achieving thoughtful services that" small things don't leave the village, services are right beside us ".
For example, as one of the first pilot communities for "digital homes" in Jiangchuan Road Street, Anningyi Residential Area takes the construction of "digital homes" and "service stations at the doorstep" as an opportunity, focusing on three major functions of service, display, and experience, integrating, sharing, and coordinating existing scattered service resources.
Nowadays, residential areas are equipped with 24-hour self-service terminals and remote assistance platforms at nearby party and mass service stations, allowing residents to handle various social security services without leaving the community. The "one click ride hailing" smart screen effectively alleviates the problem of travel difficulties for the elderly. "Many elderly people in the community need to go to the hospital for medication or medical treatment. As long as they book a car through this screen, there will be a car to pick them up on time, so there is no need to worry about traffic problems."
For example, using AI technology to improve community digital governance. Taking the problem of littering small bags as an example, at the beginning, as long as the monitoring screen captures it, warning messages will be pushed. However, at the same time, the property management patrols every hour, and any discovery during the process will be promptly disposed of. In this way, the warning information may differ from the actual situation on site. Afterwards, the community adjusted the monitoring mode to be based on time, and only pushed alarm messages after capturing small bags of garbage that had not been disposed of for an hour, thereby improving the pertinence and practicality of problem disposal.
At the same time, residential areas also pay attention to the construction of community digital infrastructure, with basic data such as "people, houses, things, organizations, and disposal capabilities" as the core, connecting 16 grassroots business system platforms, and building a unified and empowered community brain. When there are actual business needs, the platform can quickly generate a list of qualified personnel through intelligent matching and screening mechanisms, which can improve office efficiency and provide basis and support for decision-making.
"Community is a whole. We hope that through these activities and platforms, more new and old residents can get to know, gather, and enjoy each other, from 'integration' to 'integration', and truly turn 'you and me' into 'us'. Chen Chen Chen said that residents' demands are the driving force of community governance, and their intelligence is also the source of innovation in community governance. Anning One residential area is playing the role of the masses as the main body, using embroidery to paint the' meticulous painting 'of community governance, making the community more warm and making life more comfortable.".
