Abstract

[Extract] Water-related challenges are intensifying worldwide. Issues such as water scarcity, pollution, and flooding are becoming more severe, often driven by unsustainable development, population growth, and extreme weather events. South- east Asia faces such challenges of burgeoning population and rapidly changing environmental conditions, with additional regional complexities due to its unique confluence of environmental, social, and economic factors. Water has long shaped the cultural uniqueness of this region, from the ancient water temples in Indonesia and Cambodia as agricultural centers of water to state-of-the-art water reclamation plants today serving water-stressed Singapore. Correspondingly, solutions to the region’s current water challenges must be interdisciplinary and tailored to the region’s specific contexts.
