Youth, Vertical Housing, Neighbourhood Space, Focus Group DiscussionAbstract
Focus group discussion series was set up at the vertical housing of Kerinchi People Housing Project, Lembah Pantai with two different groups in separate venues and times. The analysis was done by using Atlas.ti after transcribing and coding the audio-taped discussion, searching for networking on youth participation. The findings show youth demand indoor space compared to outdoor space due to open space inadequacy and absence of space quality yet lost the sense of belonging. Furthermore, the residents' committee neglected youth participation in the decision-making process or meeting with the committee has resulted in the youth not participating in the community actively.
