Abstract

Natural disasters cause massive losses and damage and have quite a large impact both materially and non-materially and can cause changes to the socio-economic conditions of the people as the affected parties. The lack of public knowledge of actions and disaster management through mitigation that occurred in Poko Village, Jambon District caused natural disasters that occurred to have an impact. The purpose of this article is to analyze the effectiveness of outreach in increasing community awareness and preparedness related to potential disasters in the Poko Village area, Jambon District. This research method uses a qualitative approach. The results showed that the socialization program had succeeded in increasing community awareness regarding disaster risks in Poko Village. Through the dissemination of clear information and the active participation of the community in evacuation simulations and mitigation exercises, the level of disaster preparedness has increased significantly. Knowledge of disaster mitigation measures, such as creating evacuation routes and participation in rapid response teams, has also seen a marked increase.
