JICA Project
Promoting Countermeasures Against Land Subsidence in Jakarta
Sustainable Development Goal
Project also contributes to SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOAL. In the Project, countermeasures to mitigate land subsidence phenomenon are referred to as “mitigation measures” while the countermeasures against disasters that induced by land subsidence such as floods and high tides are referred as “adaptation measures”. Since the Project can contribute to the risk reduction of disaster induced by climate change such as sea water rise or torrential rainfall, the Project can also be said to provide adaptation measures against climate change. By reducing water related disaster, the Project will also protecting the poor people in vulnerable situation. Aside from these, provision of alternative water resources is one of the key challenges in the Project, as such, it can also contribute to safe and sustainable water use.
