Integration of Green Housing Principles in Urban Settlement Planning as an Effort to Mitigate the Impact of Climate Change in Jayapura

Climate change poses serious challenges to urban settlement development, especially in coastal areas such as Jayapura, Papua. Integrating Green Housing principles is an important strategy to mitigate the impacts of climate change through energy efficiency, carbon emission reduction, and improving the community's quality of life. This study explores the application of Green Housing principles in settlement planning in Jayapura and identifies supporting factors and barriers to its implementation. The method used is mixed methods with quantitative data collection through questionnaires on 156 respondents and qualitative data through semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders. The results show that the Jayapura community has a positive attitude towards Green Housing, with an average score of 2.91 on a scale of 1–4 and support for developing green settlements of 2.72. Mitigation behaviors such as energy saving (2.85) and waste management (2.76) also show a positive trend, although the use of environmentally friendly building materials is still low (2.18). There is a significant correlation between community knowledge about Green Housing and their attitudes and behavior (p <0.001). The main obstacles include the high cost of environmentally friendly materials and the lack of policy incentives. This study emphasizes the importance of education, strengthening regulations, and cross-sector collaboration to support effective Green Housing implementation in Jayapura.
