Summary:Although adaptation initiative in Indonesia has progressed considerably after the development and integration of National Adaptation Plan (NAP), the practical benefits for local government remain unclear. Formulating effective adaptation initiatives at the local level and integrating them into existing development plans are complicated. Therefore, the integration of adaptation into development plans by local governments in Indonesia is elucidated in this study. The development plans of four local governments in Indonesia were analyzed using the NVivo software in two coding analysis steps. Results of the coding process were then further analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. According to the results, the local governments have already considered adaptation as an important measure of climate change, but the information on climate change and adaptation are mostly general. The adaptation measures by the local governments, correspondingly, focus more on past and current climate-related hazards instead of future climate change. Local governments, therefore, still face challenges in shifting the focus to future climate change impact.
