The rapid urban growth of cities in third world countries effected in exacerbate the urban problems in those cities, and this effect emerged in the form of a breakdown of residential areas, the deterioration of the physical environment, and the cancerous growth of slums. The slums started abounding in number and growing in size in many developing countries to become a global phenomenon marks the majority of Third World cities and become a part that can not be ignored from the housing stock, the main signs of these areas are the deteriorating physical structure and lack of facilities and services, causing pressure on services and facilities of the cities contain them and lead those cities to deterioration. With the increase and exacerbate of human settlements problems, the current trend towards the developing, improving of slums and upgrading them physically, economically and socially is considered as the key requirement in all scientific, social and governmental forums. It is widely recognized that the participation of the population is essential for the sustainable and equitable development. The concept of "public participation as an essential ingredient for urban improvement and development" has been applied in many countries because of its importance on the involvement of local communities members in decision-making on their living environment. The contribution of public participation in making of the local development is a practical application of the concept of popular action based on desire and choice, which can benefit from human and substantial efforts and potential which will ease the burden on governments and also will achieve the immanence goals of development process. With the difficulty of organizing public participation, arise the importance of developing the intermediary institutions pursuing ways and means through which they could mobilize and organize energy and resources of the community members towards development actions, building channels of communication between them and various governmental agencies, from here the Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) started to be concerned in the area of development process. The non-governmental Organizations are one of achieving community development goals pillars, those organizations are important because of their ability to mobilize public awareness and activate members of the community to be involved in the process of development on one hand and to have the flexibility to enable them to work at the local level with its various problems on the other, in addition to their ability and the efficiency in reaching the public beyond the government agencies.

The method used depends on a set of steps are: • Examining the theoretical concepts of the slums, their features and characteristics, the criteria for determining their status, the advantages and disadvantages of housing in the slums, the methods of dealing with them, and finally examining the frameworks and concepts associated with each of public participation and non-governmental organizations. • Studying and evaluating some of the international experiences of programmes and projects to improve and develop the slums, the analysis protocol depends on presenting the profile of the project, its objectives, mechanisms of its implementation, its results, and extracting the indicators of the programme success and its disadvantages, and thus conclude the lessons achieved from them.
