Why is it important?

This research provides information to facilitate consultation with government entities tasked with re-framing planning processes to increase public participation. Also, potential increased opportunities for collaborative decision-making and consequent reduction in risk exposure amongst DKI Jakarta’s most vulnerable populations can help to address issues of social justice.

Perspectives

This research empirically investigates barriers and constraints to increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of flood risk management by engaging in dialogues with government and NGOs as well as community groups. This research has practical relevance to improve the community resilience relevant to Jakarta flood risk management.
