The issue of regional and urban resilience has been addressed in various discussion forums, programs, and activities. A city resilience document for climate change adaptation has been successfully formulated from the program with several adaptation actions in Semarang City. CURE’s active role in scientific development to encourage the creation of regional and urban resilience began in 2009 through involvement in the Asian Cities Climate Change Resilience Network (ACCCRN) Program. This concept hopes that various urban and regions have strategies to deal with problems, both from social, economic, and environmental problems. Urban and regional resilience can be understood as an effort to increase the region’s ability to adapt to various shocks and pressures that occur physically, socially, and economically. The impact of climate change is inevitable because of various development activities that are increasingly challenging to be managed History The unbalanced development of cities and regions creates various disturbances, both in the form of shocks (when it regards as a sudden event) and stresses (when they take place almost regularly). In Indonesia, Java Island accounts for just over 7% of the Indonesian land area and is inhabited by approximately 60% of the total population.

Globally, there are 34 cities in the world with a population of more than 10 million people, and 22 of them are located on the Asian continent. Cities with strategic locations grow even beyond their administrative areas, while many other regions are likely to become stagnant or even lagging.
