Abstract
Along with the increase in large and medium-scale disasters in the world, including in Indonesia, in the last decade, many theories and practices have developed in terms of measuring and improving disaster resilience. This study discusses the conceptual model of community-level disaster resilience and disaster risk reduction. Using a basic conceptual model for spatial protection to geological hazard, research examines the role of community resilience in reducing risk by using social dimensions. To explore the conceptual model of spatial resilience at the community scale, case studies conducted in two disaster events, are (1) communities affected by landslides in Cisolok, Sukabumi District on 31 December, 2018 and (2) Sunda Strait tsunami in Pandeglang tourism area on 22 December, 2018. Research suggests that the importance of social capital in terms of forming community resilience is related to disaster risk reduction. Social network, social experience, social knowledge and belief systems, contribute to increasing resilience and disaster risk reduction. The results of this study are the importance of building social capital and spatial resilience of communities in reducing disaster risk.
Highlights
Indonesia is in the active Pacific ring fire region
The UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) states resilience is the capacity of a system, community or community that has the potential to be exposed to disasters to adapt, by surviving or changing in such a way as to achieve and maintain an acceptable level of function and structure
This is determined by the level of ability of the social system in organizing themselves in increasing their capacity to learn from past disasters, better protection in the future, and improved disaster risk reduction efforts [6]
Summary
Indonesia is in the active Pacific ring fire region. Indonesia is vulnerable to earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and other types of geological disasters [1,2,3,4]. Indonesia is one of the most vulnerable geological disasters in the world. The Indonesian state is still not ready to face the incidence of large and medium-scale disasters. This is based on data and learning of the occurrence of large and medium-scale disasters in the last five (5) years [5]
