| Summary: | This paper presents the level of community capacity
building attained by the urban poor minority group of My Kasih
program participants towards urban poverty alleviation in Kuala
Lumpur, Malaysia. MyKasih is one of the Non-governmental
Organization focused to combat urban poverty issues in the
country. This study was conducted at Kuala Lumpur urban
squatters’ concentrated destination in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Qualitative approach was used where in-depth interview was used
as the data collection method. The results show that the
community does not have full capacity and they are still
dependent on outsiders’ assistance. It is hoped that the findings
of this study will contribute to existing body of knowledge within
urban poverty and community development disciplines. |
