Abstract

Jakarta's coastal communities are facing significant risks from climate change, influenced by both geographical and socioeconomic factors. Our study aimed to assess the current state of climate change adaptation efforts and propose strategies for reducing risks. Using a combination of a surveys and focused group discussions (FGDs) in six urban villages, we evaluated existing strategies, identified the remaining vulnerabilities, estimated cost-effectiveness, and provided recommendations. Our cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) identified dredging, embankments, and floodgate constructions as the most cost-effective options. Communities have also implemented water supply infrastructure using the reverse osmosis technique and have initiated training programs to support local businesses, with a focus on green mussel processing and brick manufacturing. Our findings, supported by previous policies and projects, underscore the importance of CEA recommendations. Inadequate dredging was identified as a primary factor contributing to the low effectiveness of flood canal projects. FGDs highlighted the critical role of freshwater facilities and local business promotion in enhancing community resilience to climate change. Leveraging local potential and social capital is crucial for the effective implementation of our recommendations. These findings emphasize the need for extensive community engagement, challenges associated with securing funding, and the importance of integrating technical and social aspects in adaptation programs. By prioritizing evidence-based decision-making through CEA, our study contributes to the development of effective governance models for coastal and ocean management. Our findings offer valuable insights for policymakers and practitioners worldwide, highlighting the importance of holistic community-driven strategies that integrate technical solutions with local knowledge and active community participation.
