Cilegon
Indonesia
Cilegon is projected to face a future marked by prolonged drought conditions, which will likely exacerbate water scarcity and impact agricultural productivity. The city will also contend with a high risk of arbovirus transmission, elevating concerns about diseases such as dengue fever within the community. Additionally, with climate changes affecting local ecosystems, the risk of malaria is anticipated to rise, influenced by shifts in mosquito breeding patterns. These interconnected climate hazards underline the urgent need for strategies to mitigate their impacts, as technology-enabled climate resilience solutions for the city have not yet been documented. As Cilegon navigates these challenges, addressing public health and environmental vulnerabilities will be crucial to ensuring the community's resilience against future climate risks.
