Over the past two decades, the implementation of integrated urban-rural development has resulted in the rejuvenation of numerous traditional villages in Zhejiang Province. These villages have not only transformed into high-quality and promising communities for residents, but also emerged as a new driving force for local economic development. Using A Village in Yiwu as a case study, this study will demonstrate the local government's engagement with village leaders, residents, and external investors for economic progress, as well as for welfare services and cultural advancement. The insights gained from this case will be examined in terms of their applications and policy implications for promoting sustainable urban-rural integration through community development, particularly in the context of Hong Kong's northern metropolis development strategy.
在过去二十年间，城乡融合发展政策的实施推动了浙江省众多传统村落的振兴。这些村落不仅转型为适合居民生活、具有发展潜力的高品质社区，也成为带动地方经济发展的新动力。本研究以浙江义乌某村为案例，展示当地政府如何与村干部、村民及外部投资者合作，推动经济发展，并促进福利服务改善与文化建设。通过该案例所得出的经验，将进一步探讨其在推动可持续城乡融合与社区发展方面的应用价值和政策启示，尤其是对香港北部都会区发展策略的参考意义。
