Abstract

Despite its water resources potential, Indonesia is known for poorly managing its water resources. The purpose of the research was to know the correlation between human activities regarding water resources management and the availability of clean water in Malang City. The research method was quantitative analytical research using Spearmen correlation and n = 100. The results showed that there was a positive relationship between water resource management and availability of clean water, which was statistically significant. We suggested for the people around Malang that they need to consider the amount of water they need to use so that the water would not be wasted and there needs to be a better sewage treatment for liquid waste in Malang City. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
