BACKGROUND
USAID Indonesia Urban Resilient Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (USAID IUWASH Tangguh) is a five-year Activity to advance Indonesia’s development goals in increasing access to safely managed drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) in vulnerable urban areas and strengthening climate-resilient WASH services and water resources management. In close partnership with the Government of Indonesia (GOI), USAID IUWASH Tangguh supports Indonesia’s work to achieve their Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets to ensure access to water and sanitation for all (SDG 6) and to make cities and settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable (SDG 11).
Using an Integrated Resilient IUWASH System (IRIS) approach which aligns actions and incentives between upstream and downstream actors, while crowding in collaboration with key stakeholders through partnerships that accelerate the enabling environment and key enabling factors, such as finance and data—the USAID IUWASH Tangguh team provides technical assistance to GOI, private sector, and civil society stakeholders to achieve four Objectives: 1) Strengthened WASH and WRM Sector Governance and Financing; 2) Increased Access to Poor-Inclusive, Climate-Resilient, Safely Managed Drinking Water and Sanitation Services; 3) Improved Water Resources Management to Support Resilient Drinking Water Services; and 4) Increased Adoption of Behaviors and Improved Women’s Participation and Leadership Roles that Contribute to Improvements of WASH and WRM.
To determine the condition of groundwater in watershed and its potential for water resources in the face of climate change, a study of the vulnerability of water resources and its watershed (DAS) to climate change is needed. The study will be carried out by the USAID IUWASH Tangguh program in watershed locations covering the USAID IUWASH Tangguh assisted city/district. This water resources climate change vulnerability assessment (WR-CCVA) is needed as an initial step with the aim at ensuring the level of reliability of water resources (quantity, quality, and continuity) both present/existing and its projections in the future.
USAID IUWASH Tangguh will carry out a WR-CCVA of Kupang District and Timor Tengah Selatan (TTS) District, NTT Province that are used as source of raw water for drinking water. Furthermore, the information from the WR-CCVA will be used as the reference to develop an action plan as a response to the anticipated risks. This may include watershed conservation/protection activities to maintain and improve the reliability of the watershed and raw water resources (quantity, quality, and continuity).
The WR-CCVA will provide a comprehensive analysis of challenges, constraints, vulnerabilities, and risks that can affect the quantity, quality, and continuity of the water resources resulting from interaction of various factors as well as the impact of climate change to the watershed.
The assessment results will be used to formulate a plan for implementing climate change adaptation activities in an effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly ways to ensure sustainable supply of raw water for Kupang District and TTS District.
The program also aims to enhance the capacity of local institutions, such as universities and research institutions, to comprehend climate change vulnerability assessment, which includes hydrometeorological assessments, climate change projections, and the development of climate change adaptation plans for the water sector.
