This study was started to find the policy direction on the problem of rehabilitation project for the lower-income group residential area. Though the existing rehabilitation projects have contributed to the lower-income group residential areas, development regulations and low profitability make it difficult to rehabilitate lots of small and medium scaled deteriorated houses. Most of residents living in the area are supposedly low income houses who are socially and economically vulnerable, of which houses are seriously deteriorated. This study intends to emphasis nonprofit housing movement and to regenerate small and midium scaled deteriorated residental area which must be rehabilitated. A case study on Habitat Korea who has conducted nonprofit house activity initiatively was executed to find specific research implications. As the result of case study, citizens’ volunteer service enabled housing provision projects to consider the ability of the near poverty groups, which shows the improvement possibility for residental area’s regeneration. Nonprofit group specialized by housing activity coupled with occupants’ participation could make the significant partnership with public sector which can be a more successful approach for low-income residental area’s regeneration. |
