Southeast Asian countries are facing severe water scarcity challenge due to their location in the tropics. In 2018, the Sumba Island experienced the highest temperature of 36°C and lesser rain-fall of 911.1 mm3 per year and it was classified as a long dry island prone to drought due to dry winds from Australian des-serts. This paper focuses on the perceived effect of water scarcity on livelihoods in the Mandahu Village, Indonesia, due to climate change. Sampling and survey covered rural households and the findings showed that the average household of 4 to 8 people consumed around 250 dm3 of water per day. The community relied on two main sources of clean water from two main springs. However, the prolonged dry season from May until December every year results in major challenges to ac-cess water and eventually affect the agricultural productivity. Hence, the feasibility of the fog collection technology has been investigated from technological, economic and social points of view as a reliable and cost-effective source of water. The outcome of this work will produce a feasibility statement for fog-to-water as an alternative solution counteracting water scarcity in the Sumba Island, a solution which can be replicated in other climate change stricken hot spots in South-east Asia.}, type={Article}, title={Techno-socio-economic analysis of fog-to-water solution for climate change hazard area: Sumba Island, Indonesia}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/119062/PDF/21%20Ismail%20et%20al%20759.pdf}, doi={10.24425/jwld.2021.136160}, keywords={climate change, fog collector, hazard, Southeast Asia, water scarcity}, }
