本研究採取社區資產之路徑，了解澎湖縣望安鄉目前社區資產之現況，繪製社區資產地圖，並且進一步探究面臨之困境，做為規劃未來社區發展藍圖之參考。本研究中社區資產之內涵主要包括了有形資本、人力資本、社會資本、政治資本、環境資本、文化資本等六個面向；採用質量並重的研究方法，主要的研究場域是以望安鄉與將軍澳嶼為主；資料搜集期間為2012年7月。本研究結果發現，有形資本方面，當地仍有一些基礎建設，是有機會可促進社區的發展。人力資本方面，雖然當地居民教育程度不高，但是因為靠海為生，居民擁有捕魚與釣魚的專長，且當地居民有高度願意投入志願服務。社會資本方面，社區居民彼此的連結性強，擁有高度的結合型社會資本。政治資本方面，以宗教團體及學校家長會為有利於社區發展的團體。環境資本方面，具備有助於社區觀光產業發展的自然景觀。文化資本方面，擁有列入「世界文化紀念物守護計畫」的中社古厝。本研究建議社區必須讓這些資產與社區的發展目標相互結合，透過社區組織的機制運作，使社區資產形成一個關係網絡，讓社區、組織與居民建立夥伴關係，共同促進澎湖縣望安鄉的社區永續發展。
