Abstract
This article is based on research to analyse the impact of resettlement on women’s household livelihood in Kampung Pulo and Muara Baru, Jakarta. These urban slum dwellers have been evicted from the local government of Jakarta as part of flood mitigation program which include slum clearance for people who encroached the green zones. As a result of evictions, they got resettlement compensation into vertical housing, known as rusun, although they prefer cash compensation instead of resettlement. This paper describes how resettlement affecting women’s livelihood in terms of their assets in two locations. Both women’s household struggled over difficulty in adaptation for living in vertical housing, especially in regards of financial assets, human assets, physical assets, and social assets. However, Kampung Pulo dwellers are likely have better livelihood than people in Muara Baru.
