The impacts of climate change are already being felt all over Indonesia. Vulnerability to climate change is often specific to the local context. Hence, understanding climate change impact at the local level is important and fundamental for addressing climate change. The Government of Indonesia, has conducted a Risk and Adaptation Assessments to Climate Change (KRAPI) at several pilot sites, for Lombok Island, South Sumatra Province and Greater Malang area (to represent meso scale assessment), as well as for the Tarakan city (to represent micro scale assessment). The implementation of these studies began with public consultation to identify vulnerable sectors affected by climate change, it continued with the integration of recommendation from the assessment of options and climate change adaptation strategies into local development and spatial planning.
