Enhancing Housing Awareness and Knowledge: The Malaysia Indigenous Community Outreach Project
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 05
Abstract
This research examines the housing challenges faced by the Indigenous community in Malaysia and implements an outreach initiative implemented by the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). The aim of this project is to improve living conditions and address issues such as overcrowding, inadequate infrastructure, and lack of essential amenities through educational programs and active community engagement. By closely collaborating with local leaders and members, this program offers specialized courses on residency rights, sustainable practices, and practical skills. Furthermore, it sheds light on economic barriers, health risks, and cultural assimilation challenges experienced by these communities. The findings underscore the need for comprehensive policy measures that integrate economic empowerment with residential improvements while reinforcing legal support for land ownership and residential rights to promote culturally sensitive development policies.
