Abstract

This study aims to understand the determinants of the sustainable slum beautification (SB) program in Indonesia. The SB program has emerged as one of the successful slum improvement programs. However, many slum settlements in Indonesia failed to achieve the expected result. This indicates that the issue is the sustainability of the program, which demands the active participation of the residents, as a form of reproduction of the social system. This study employs a case study research method. Kampung Warna-Warni Jodipan (KWWJ) in Malang (East Java) is selected as the research location, because of its reputation as an example of best practice in the sustainable SB program in Indonesia. The primary data encompasses the social system and practices, and the physical condition before and after the SB program. It is obtained by observation, semi-structured interview and participatory mapping of the physical condition of the neighborhood, as the source for descriptive analysis. The finding demonstrates that the SB program, as an external intervention, is required to thrive agents to produce agencies for the reproduction of the social system and practice. However, it has to be supported by the active participation and support of other residents. As a collective, it is of urgent interest, which holds a pivotal role in the production of the agency. This result contributes to refining the sustainable SB program in the future, especially in Indonesia.
