Changes in global precipitation would affect Indonesia to improve its water resource management system. As most watersheds are in a critical stage nowadays, it is urgent to develop a new plan and policy on water conservation that integrates the most important parameters reasonably. It has the purpose of ensuring that water resources are available for all activities and purposes within the area, especially for future periods. Integrated Water Resources Conservation Management is one of the promising approaches that is being mainly developed, particularly through the participation of all stakeholders. This participation brings equal responsibility to protect and sustainably manage the water resources, which might differ from one area to another in Indonesia. This study shows that it is important to bring up local wisdom practices on water conservation management. These could help overcome the problems related to water management in different locations in Indonesia and encourage all the stakeholders to take responsibility. All the inputs from the stakeholders are very helpful to identify the strategy at the national level, and thus it would minimize the misinterpretation between local and national levels in terms of regulation or policy. Furthermore, the approach strategies provided in this paper could improve the water national policy in Indonesia and minimize the negative potential impacts due to the lack of precipitation in the upcoming years.

The study concludes that addressing water resource challenges in Indonesia requires a comprehensive approach integrating global precipitation projections, stakeholder participation, and local wisdom.Developing a national policy on Integrated Water Resources Conservation Management (IWCM) is crucial for ensuring water availability for various purposes, particularly in the face of future climate change.Strengthening coordination between national and local governments, alongside incorporating local best practices, is essential for effective implementation and sustainable water resource management.

Further research should investigate the effectiveness of combining traditional local wisdom with modern water management technologies to enhance resilience to climate change impacts. A study could be conducted to assess the economic feasibility and social acceptance of implementing green and blue water infrastructure solutions in different Indonesian watersheds. Additionally, research is needed to develop a robust monitoring and evaluation framework for IWCM policies, incorporating indicators that reflect both ecological health and socio-economic benefits, to ensure adaptive management and long-term sustainability. These investigations will contribute to a more nuanced understanding of water resource challenges and inform the development of effective, locally-adapted conservation strategies.
