In a world defined by the dual challenges of climate change and sustainable development, cities play a pivotal role in reimagining the future trajectories of our societies and planet. This volume authored by an international cohort of scholars is dedicated to understanding the dynamic transformations of cities, with a particular focus on cities in the rapidly growing countries of Southeast Asia. The book underscores the complex interplay between global climate and environmental changes and societal choice, highlighting the critical implications for climate adaptation and sustainable development. The spotlight is on Southeast Asia, an epicenter of diverse societies, cultures, and economic development, including Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, and the Philippines.

Ronald Holzhacker (Professor, University of Groningen, The Netherlands) is broadly interested in questions of governance and planning for climate adaptation and sustainable development in cities. He is Director of the Groningen Research Centre for Southeast Asia and ASEAN.

Bakti (Bobi) Setiawan (Professor, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia) is interested in urban planning and management. His research focus is on sustainable urban transformation, particularly on how urban informality is transforming into more sustainable directions.

Dyah Rahmawati Hizbaron (Associate Professor, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia) is interested in urban vulnerability, resilience, and infrastructure planning for climate adaptation and sustainability in cities.

Kim Neil Irvine (Associate Professor and Head, Nature-based Solutions in Water Management Research Unit, Thammasat University, Thailand) has research interests in applied hydrologic modelling, sustainable urban waterscapes, and smart city planning.

Christina Prell (Associate Professor, University of Groningen) explores how social networks shape environmental outcomes, from climate change inequalities to local climate action. She has published widely in peer-reviewed articles, mostly on networks and the environment, and teaches courses on network analysis.

Klaus Hubacek (Professor, University of Groningen) researches human-environment systems funded by a wide range of countries and international institutions, including the World Bank and the WWF. He is currently the director of the Energy and Sustainability Research Institute.
