Indonesia has experienced rapid urbanization and growth of slums. The government has implemented several policies and programs to address this issue:
1. National laws and plans provide the framework for slum upgrading and prevention, focusing on increasing affordable housing, land tenure security, and infrastructure development.
2. Local programs implement slum upgrading through community-driven initiatives like the National Program for Community Empowerment and vertical housing developments that provide core facilities.
3. Efforts are made to build capacity, provide access to financing, and standardize data on slums, but challenges remain around land issues, economic opportunities, and keeping pace with slum growth.
