Abstract

Informal settlements in Jakarta are known as ‘kampungs,’ which are classified as illegally constructed areas upon urban land. This paper presents a community-based approach to empower kampungs in Jakarta. The approach aims at creating an enabling environment to connect the kampungs with the market and help the kampungs fight against economic and social marginalization through emerging entrepreneurship, increased level of production and higher income. Eventually, the kampungs are expected to have bargaining power even for their land tenure to the government.
