Abstract
Currently, Indonesia, like other countries in the world, is experiencing the problem of climate change. One of those that are affected by its negative impacts is women, especially housewives. This is because they are the ones who prepare meals in their households. This study aims to understand how women adapt to climate change, especially in maintaining their family’s food security. This research is qualitative research. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. The areas observed were Depok City and Bogor Regency. The conclusion from this research is that women who live in cities and villages have different ways of adapting. Urban women use agricultural technology, while rural women diversify their types of food. This was closely related to the availability of land for their families.
