![This park reduces flood risk in one of the fastest sinking cities in the world!
Redeveloped by @siura.studio, Tebet Eco Park in Jakarta, Indonesia, is a 7-hectare public space that mitigates urban flooding through a regenerative approach that includes river widening and naturalisation and construction of bioswales and wetlands.
This redevelopment has doubled the park’s water retention capacity.

To address the flooding woes in the National Capital Region, the Metropolitan Manila Development (MMDA) is planning to build five underground cisterns, including one in University of Santo Tomas in España, Manila and another Camp Aguinaldo in Quezon City.
The MMDA is eyeing to replicate the underground water impounding facility similar to the one in Bonifacio Global City in Taguig City.
The MMDA and the Manila City Hall have already discussed the plan with UST but the university board has yet to respond.

Copenhagen is under a double threat from climate change.
Rising seas and heavy rainfall mean the risk of is growing across the city. But Denmark’s capital is fighting back using an approach to urban design pioneered in China: it’s becoming a sponge city.
When finished, the project will enable to soak up and store excess water rather than be submerged by it.
Cities around the world are highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. The Davos Baukultur Alliance champions sustainable and climate-resilient urban development by encouraging a circular approach to the planning, construction and management of buildings, infrastructure and public spaces.
