KSBB Permukiman: Help Fulfill Adequate Housing for Citizens

The Jakarta Government is calling all of us to collaborate in putting an end to the Covid-19 outbreak. One of the concrete steps taken is to open the door of collaboration through Kolaborasi Sosial Berskala Besar (KSBB). The KSBB program which was launched in May 2020, consists of several sub-programs, including KSBB Pangan, KSBB UMKM, KSBB Pendidikan, and most recently the KSBB Permukiman.

The implementation of the KSBB Permukiman program is based on the objective of fulfilling the rights of citizens' to a proper place to live. During this Covid-19 outbreak, the settlement density that lacks proper infrastructure may spread the virus even more and this is the last thing we want. In order to achieve this mission, Jakarta has also carried out an integrated and sustainable settlement area arrangement through the Settlement Quality Improvement program. Needless to say, for this mission to be successful, Jakarta relies heavily on our participation.

KSBB Permukiman Aims to Help 200 RW and 21 Villages

The Jakarta Government is targeting 200 neighborhood (RW) and 21 priority villages to receive the donation through KSBB Permukiman within 2017 up until 2022.
