Interpretation
Climate-risk scoring weighs hazard exposure with adaptation capacity. Jakarta's hazards are concurrent and require sustained investment. Across the indexed cities the climate risk average is 62/100, so Jakarta is close to the median for this dimension. Data year 2025; last updated 2026-05-16. Drawn from 3 institutional references.
