Those affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011 were forced to live in temporary housing complexes. Neighbourhood associations established in these temporary housing complexes played important roles in improving the living conditions of the residents. In this study, we selected three types of neighbourhood associations in Ishinomaki-city, Miyagi Prefecture, and analysed the residents' activities and the management of the associations from 2013 to 2015. We found seven core activities fundamental for improving the living environment in the temporary housing complexes. The key requisites noted for sustainable management of the neighbourhood associations included reduction of the workload and responsibilities of the chairperson, appointment of female officials, and establishment of vice-group leader positions.

In the discipline of anthropology, development studies in the rural areas in developing countries should be dealt with as a field of social-cultural transformations. The Imbonggu of the Papua New Guinea Highlands started the indigenous development project, centered around the Wamb-Wenewene Association. This article tries to locate this indigenous development movement in the context of Imbonggu civilization history which started from the mid-1950s and the Imbonggu mythological background. In the first section, I depict how the English concept, ‘development',was accepted and transformed into the Imbonggu culture as ‘debelopmen'. In the second section, as an ethnographic background, I glimpse how the Western civilization arrived to the neolithic cultures of Papua New Guinea Highlands including the Imbonggu and bring them to cultural transformations. In the third section, I decipher the indigenous development movement, ‘Wamb-Wenewene Association'which is an eco-tourism project through an anthropological concept, ‘trickster'. In the fourth section, I describe the process of a gift ceremony, ‘pig-kill', celebrated in August 2006 at Ambupulu village in the Imbonggu, through which the Ambupulu commitment to the Wamb-Wenewene Association was agreed. And, in the conclusion, I abstract the principles of dynamics in the indegenous development movement, the Wamb-Wenewene Association, and make some suggestions to the development studies from standpoint of cultural anthropology.
