Community preparedness in Disaster management is a case study in the southern slopes of Mount Merapi, Cangkringan, Sleman District. This study aims to answer the question: 1) how to build a Community response preparedness; 2) how the existence of the Community preparedness. Data and information gathered from multiple sources with techniques: a) study the documentation; b) in-depth interviews; c) observation; and d) Focused Group Discussions (FGD). From a qualitative descriptive analysis be revealed that people on the slopes of the volcano, generally have a problem-solving method (coping strategy) and the value of the underlying behavior of people in touch with nature. Society and government have united to achieve human welfare. Cangkringan Action is evidence of; 1) the seriousness of the state in Disaster Risk Reduction; 2) consistency and accountability of the Republic of Indonesia for the ASEAN agreement, the Asian nations and peoples of the world in Disaster Risk Reduction Cangkringan Community preparedness model can be replicated in other locations that have a high enough level of vulnerability. However, within the Framework of the model replication, allocation of time and energy of the Community need to be considered. Mountainside communities generally do not have a fixed income, so they need to be compensated for the time and effort that should be productive for themselves and their families to participate invarious programs taken up.Keywords: community, preparedness, management, disaster.Kesiapsiagaan masyarakat dalam penanggulangan bencana merupakan penelitian kasus di lereng gunung Merapi bagian selatan di Kecamatan Cangkringan, Kabupaten Sleman.

The deposits of the Kharkov suite of Paleogene of Belarus are the soils formed at the turn of existence and regression of the last sea basin and the final establishment of the continental situation in the territory of the country. They are widely spread in the south of the republic and lie mostly at depths of 100–110 m. In the southeast of Belarus, along the valleys of large rivers, these soils often reach the surface. The latter predetermined their active use as the foundations of structures. This is especially pronounced in the city of Gomel, where a wide development of territories is currently underway, within which these soils lie at depths of less than 10 m. The purpose of the work is to characterize the conditions for the distribution of the soils of the Kharkov suite of Paleogene within the southeast of Belarus and to study the characteristics of their composition and structure. The work is based on the results of the author's field and laboratory studies, which included a description of the outcrops, pits, and well cores; soil sampling; determination of their chemical and mineral, granulometric and microaggregate compositions, moisture characteristics for the classification of clay soils, as well as the results of statistical data processing. The paper presents the typification of the soil strata of the Kharkov suite of Paleogene of the southeast of Belarus, which allowed us to isolate three characteristic sites that differ in terms of their distribution, depth, thickness of the strata and composition of the soils. Nine granulometric sand and clay differences within the isolated areas were identified. The study of chemical-mineral and granulometric compositions of soils made it possible to identify their significant changes, both in area and in the section, which is caused by confinement to various facies zones, frequent migration of the coastline, long and uneven erosion and glacier-exaction destruction. The interrelation of the mineral composition, size and morphology of sandy soil particles is analyzed, it is noted that in all their varieties medium and fine sand fractions differ in the greatest mineral diversity.

The first step to make any disaster risk reduction plan for any crowded area, (such as any religious gathering or functions), is to identify and mitigate the condition that might have increased the cause of probable disaster. Prayagraj is one of the mega cities of Uttar Pradesh, having 8 tehsils having a population of 1,117,094. There are less comprehensive studies or statistical data that is available about the fire disaster emergency plans for the dense areas of Uttar Pradesh. Using the case study of Ardh Kumbh 2019, Prayagraj, this paper provides an approach to understand the system faults and the importance of development of a disaster risk reduction plan for metropolitan cities of Uttar Pradesh. It recommends the co-ordination between various stakeholders, infrastructure facilities and Rescue agencies as well as government institutions.

ABSTRACTBanggai Laut District which consists of islands has many threats to natural disaster, one of them is landslide hazard. The landslides hazard in Banggai Laut District is formed due to morphology which mostly in the form of wavy morphology up to the hills. The thematic map data used in landslide hazard map analysis is the official data held by the Banggai Laut District Government. The weighting and rating system is carried out on several parameters: geology (15%), slope (40%), land cover (25%) and rainfall (20%). Data from these parameters are overlaid with geographic information system (GIS) to obtain the classification of landslide hazard maps, ie: high landslide hazard zones, moderate landslide hazard zones and low landslide hazard zones. High landslide hazard zones are evenly spread over 4 large islands, namely Banggai Island, Bangkurung Island, Labobo Island and Bokan Kepulauan Islands. The potential for high landslide hazard will become bigger with added disturbance of human activities. To smooth the development process in integrated Banggai Laut District, landslide hazard maps and other hazard maps are very necessary. The limited availability of data and information on the disaster in Banggai Laut District, the creation of landslide hazard map is very important as one of the parts to complement the data. With the establishment of Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Banggai Laut District, disaster risk reduction is expected to be implemented more focused, integrated, comprehensive and well coordinated with related institutions. Keywords: Landslides, Hazard Maps, Banggai Laut, Disaster Risk Reduction, Focused and Integrated Development.   ABSTRAKKabupaten Banggai Laut yang terdiri dari kepulauan mempunyai banyak ancaman terhadap bencana alam, salah satunya adalah bencana tanah longsor (gerakan tanah). Bahaya tanah longsor di Kabupaten Banggai Laut terbentuk akibat morfofologi yang sebagian besar berupa morfologi bergelombang sampai perbukitan. Data peta tematik yang digunakan dalam analisis peta bahaya tanah longsor adalah data resmi yang dimiliki oleh Pemerintah Kabupaten Banggai Laut. Sistem pembobotan dan penilaian dilakukan pada beberapa parameter yaitu: geologi (15%), lereng (40%), tutupan lahan (25%) dan curah hujan (20%). Data dari parameter-parameter tersebut dioverlay dengan sistem informasi geografi untuk mendapatkan klasifikasi peta bahaya tanah longsor, yaitu: zona bahaya tanah longsor tinggi, zona bahaya tanah longsor sedang dan zona bahaya tanah longsor rendah. Zona bahaya tanah longsor tinggi merata tersebar di 4 pulau besar, yaitu Pulau Banggai, Pulau Bangkurung, Pulau Labobo dan Bokan Kepulauan. Potensi bahaya longsor tinggi tersebut akan menjadi semakin besar dengan tambahan gangguan aktivitas manusia. Untuk kelancaran proses pembangunan secara terpadu di Kabupaten Banggai Laut, peta bahaya longsor dan peta-peta bahaya lainnya sangat diperlukan. Ketersediaan data dan informasi tentang kebencanaan yang masih terbatas di Kabupaten Banggai Laut, maka pembuatan peta kawasan rawan bahaya tanah longsor sangat penting sebagai salah satu bagian untuk melengkapi data tersebut. Dengan terbentuknya BPBD Kabupaten Banggai Laut, maka pengurangan risiko bencana diharapkan dapat dilaksanakan dengan lebih terarah, terpadu, menyeluruh serta terkoordinasi dengan baik dengan instansi terkait. Kata kunci: Tanah Longsor, Peta Bahaya, Banggai Laut, Pengurangan Risiko Bencana, Pembangunan Terarah dan Terpadu.

AbstractThis chapter critically assesses the integration of climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction with a special focus on the Irish policy and governance context. The chapter first presents a comprehensive overview of the Irish policy environment for climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction including its current level of integration. Analysis of alignment with global and regional drivers of integration is then considered. Next, drawing on empirical research conducted with multidisciplinary experts across the Republic of Ireland, the chapter employs the SHIELD model, developed by the EU-funded ESPREssO project, which outlines six pathways to enhance integration across the domains of climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction. The pathways comprise of sharing knowledge, harmonising capacities, institutionalising coordination, engaging stakeholders, leveraging investments and developing communication. Findings of stakeholder focus groups and survey responses highlight the challenges and opportunities for impactful integration between climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction in Ireland from a practitioner perspective across the six SHIELD pathways. Finally, conclusions from the study indicate the importance of governance, management and coordination of systems for climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction; the sequencing of policy-making, planning and research; and the significance of specificity in relation to use of the six SHIELD pathways.

Textbooks are one of the learning resources that are widely used by students and teachers. Analyzing the contents of a textbooks is a way that can be done to assess the quality of the book. This research aims to determine the content of the revised K-13 science textbook grade VII SMP/MTs which is appropriate for integrated disaster risk reduction learning in schools. The emphasized disaster is a disaster that often occur in Indonesian. This research used document analysis method. Data were collected based on a systematic review of documents and supporting evidence in the form of research on disaster risk reduction in science learning in SMP / MTs. Data were analyzed by using descriptive analysis based on research focus. This research was conducted by analyzing two books from the government and non-government. The result of research shows that there are 19.05% sub material in the science books from the government and 17.2% of non-government that integrated disaster risk reduction. From the result, it can be seen that the content in grade VII SMP / MTs science textbooks on disaster risk reduction is still lack, so it is necessary to add content related to disaster mitigation to the science book grade VII SMP / MTs.
