Abstract

The World Music School community is a Non-Government Organisation (NGO) that teaches music and organises events internationally around dance and music activities. This case study investigates community connectivity and resilience development in the World Music School (WMS) Helsinki community of practice and the Shanghai WMS community of interest. Using a social ecological system approach, the community structures and relationships were explored and supported by the literature. In particular, the research focused on the feedback loops at different levels within each community structure. The WMS core activities are viewed as inclusive and human connectivity enhancers. Focusing on human connectivity, the research investigated the ‘ what ’ and ‘ why ’ of the NGO's involvement in building its community structure as it revealed what is essential for community resilience. This research discusses how connections between shocks and disturbances within the community systems were identified and the various outcomes when identifying and approaching acute weakness within the community structures. This case study examines how the WMS community, community resilience, social ecological systems, systemic approach, systemic design

案例研究：将赫尔辛基世界音乐学校视为一个社会生态系统，以增强社区连通性和韧性

世界音乐学校社区是一个非政府组织，教授音乐，并围绕舞蹈和音乐活动组织国际活动。本案例研究调查了世界音乐学校（WMS）赫尔辛基实践社区和上海WMS感兴趣社区的社区连通性和韧性发展。采用社会生态系统的方法，对社区结构和关系进行了探索，并得到了文献的支持。特别是，研究集中在每个社区结构中不同层次的反馈回路上。WMS的核心活动被视为包容性和人类连通性的增强因素。这项研究以人类的联系为重点，调查了非政府组织参与构建社区结构的“原因”和“原因”，揭示了什么对社区韧性至关重要。这项研究讨论了如何识别社区系统内的冲击和干扰之间的联系，以及在识别和处理社区结构内的严重弱点时的各种结果。本案例研究考察了WMS社区、社区复原力、社会生态系统、系统方法、系统设计

期刊介绍： Systems Research and Behavioral Science publishes original articles on new theories, experimental research, and applications relating to all levels of living and non-living systems. Its scope is comprehensive, dealing with systems approaches to: the redesign of organisational and societal structures; the management of administrative and business processes; problems of change management; the implementation of procedures to increase the quality of work and life; the resolution of clashes of norms and values; social cognitive processes; modelling; the introduction of new scientific results, etc. The editors especially want manuscripts of a theoretical or empirical nature which have broad interdisciplinary implications not found in a journal devoted to a single discipline.
