Abstract

The city’s resilience capacity needs to be carried out to support a broader, planned, and integrated development process. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to obtain the actual condition of the vulnerability of coastal women in facing climate change in the city of Makassar, which includes aspects of individual capacity and organizational capacity, as well as systems in the city of Makassar. To find the ideal strategy to manage the vulnerability of coastal women to disasters and climate change in the city of Makassar. The research method uses a qualitative-exploratory method with a phenomenological approach. The data sources used are primary and secondary data. Data collection techniques through field studies and literature studies. The data analysis technique used is an interactive model. The results of the study show that women’s vulnerability in coastal areas is caused in addition by erratic rainfall as well as policy gaps related to women concerning climate change in the city of Makassar and the government’s commitment to ensuring the protection of women’s rights through a half-hearted urban climate policy. Furthermore, the ideal strategy in ecosystem-based adaptive governance is to manage the vulnerability of coastal women.

Highlights

Indonesia's development continues, and the capacity to develop urban resilience at the local government level is limited
In the category of adaptation interventions above to respond to the impact of climate change on women on the coast, as explained earlier that due to climate change, the actual vulnerability of women in the coastal areas of Makassar City was found to be gaps in climate change policies related to women in Makassar City
It was found that there were gaps in climate change policies related to women in Makassar City. in this case women are not considered as stakeholders in formulating, implementing, monitoring and evaluating climate change policies or actions

Summary

Introduction

Indonesia's development continues, and the capacity to develop urban resilience at the local government level is limited. Most development interventions are not designed for environmental change but require people to adapt to development [1]. The adaptation of cities needs to be improved by identifying development needs and allocating resources to improve the ability of the government to adapt to changes to support a broader comprehensive development process [2,3]. Urban resilience needs to be developed so that government programs or policies that are vulnerable to climate change can be successful. In a study by Moder [4], it is stated that currently, the world is facing important serious problems, including that global climate change is the biggest problem and challenge today. It is estimated that during this century, problems such as rising temperatures, rising sea levels, and thousands of coastal wetlands have been permanently flooded by salt water, and floods and droughts have occurred at catastrophic levels with consequences for every sector, sector, and class
