Climate change poses challenges to infrastructure resilience in Southeast Asia's flood-prone regions. This study identifies and evaluates strategies for enhancing through wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia. Using a mixed-method approach, we analyzed the case studies conducted quantitative assessments of flood mitigation efforts. Data were collected (2021–2024) site visits, interviews with key stakeholders, analysis historical performance data. involved statistical methods assessing their effectiveness comparative analyses across them. Singapore reduced areas by 30% using integrated WWTP technologies drainage systems, while Malaysia developed resilient networks WWTPs designed withstand extreme weather, preventing 85% contamination cases. Thailand combined green blue WWTPs, decreasing vulnerability 25%. Indonesia invested decentralized urban areas, increasing 40%. Nature-based solutions, such as ecological restoration, reduce flooding impacts 20%. The implications policymakers practitioners include need integrate advanced nature-based solutions bolster mitigate risks. offers insights into developing effective climate adaptation flood-vulnerable regions, emphasizing critical role resilience.

Abstract Coastal communities in northern Central Java, Indonesia, are facing urgent threats from climate change, including rising sea levels, land subsidence, and extreme weather events, particularly Semarang, Demak, Pekalongan. This research aims to explore the adaptation strategies these employ cope with challenges while emphasizing critical right adequate housing. Using a qualitative approach that includes literature reviews, analysis of legal frameworks, interviews government community stakeholders, study investigates how housing rights integrated into efforts. The findings reveal significant barriers achieving resilient housing, socioeconomic constraints limitations initiatives, such as inadequate subsidies ineffective development models. Based on insights, recommends policymakers design targeted programs address specific needs vulnerable populations, enhance resilience, ensure provision safe contributes deeper understanding support coastal navigating growing posed by change.
