Sustainable and inclusive urban development policies need to be sharpened, especially for big cities in Indonesia. Indonesian cities face a myriad of complex challenges, including pollution, overpopulation, and urban displacement. As these urban centers grapple with issues of liveability and community cohesion, there is a pressing need for a comprehensive approach to urban renewal that balances development with social harmony. This research paper explores the critical imperative of creating sustainable and inclusive cities in Indonesia, focusing on urban areas such as Jakarta and Surabaya. The paper underscores the significance of integrating spatial and social considerations in urban governance, advocating for a fair and inclusive environment for all residents. By examining successful sustainable city initiatives and drawing on lessons learned from city authorities throughout Indonesia, this research aims to provide valuable insights for advancing sustainable urban renewal practices in Indonesia. The findings of this study have significant implications for policymakers, urban planners, and community leaders in Indonesia to offer practical strategies for addressing the complex challenges facing Indonesian cities while promoting social equity and environmental sustainability.
