Portrait of Household Drinking Water Quality in Indonesia

Portrait of Household Drinking Water Quality in Indonesia

As mandated in the 2020-2024 National Mid-Term Development Plan, the Indonesian government targets 100% access to safe drinking water and 15% access to safe drinking water. Availability of access and ensuring safe and sustainable water quality are human rights and as part of health protection. This was conveyed by Professor of Environmental Engineering Research Center for Limnology & Water Resources - National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) and The Executive Director of Asia Pacific Centre for Ecohydrology (APCE), Prof. Dr. Ignatius D.A. Sutapa, M.Sc., at the World Water Day Webinar with the theme Groundwater-make The Invisible Visible with the sub-theme "Maintaining Safe and Sustainable Drinking Water Quality", on Tuesday (22/3).

Flood Risk Assesment with High Spatial Resolution for Flood Disaster Mitigation with Climate Change Scenario

Flood Risk Assesment with High Spatial Resolution for Flood Disaster Mitigation with Climate Change Scenario

 One of the important component in flood disaster risk reduction is the availability of spatial information on flood risk that include: flood discharge (q), flood depth (h), flood extent (A), flood duration (t), and the lost value due to flood which could be quantified in the form of damage costs (Q). Change in the value of risk f(h, A, t, Q) was hypothesized to be sensitive to climate change and other environmental factors that exist at a river basin area.
