Abstract

Climate change increases the occurrence of natural disasters. From 1909-2023, Indonesia experienced 613 natural disasters. The flood, which had 268 incidents, was the most significant natural disaster. Indonesia is known for being one of the world’s flood-prone areas. This is due to tidal water inundation, sea level rise, river overflows due to high rainfall, and land subsidence and urbanization. In facing climate change and dealing with natural disasters, no one must be left behind. Indonesia has had a policy for managing natural disasters since 1961, but Indonesia only had natural disaster management related to involving people with disabilities in 2007. This research aims to analyses the process of involving people with disabilities in managing natural disasters. The research uses qualitative methods with content analysis policy. The study finds Indonesia already has a national legal basis for involving disabilities from the planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation stages as well as in the Disaster Risk Reduction Forum. This study concludes that there is a need for integrity between the central government and regional governments in managing natural disasters with the involvement of disabilities.
