Integrasi Teori Resiliensi dan Manajemen Bencana Pascabencana Besar di Kota Palu

Abstract

Palu City is one of Indonesia's regions with a potential for a catastrophic earthquake. On September 28, 2018, a catastrophic disaster occurred in Palu, Donggala, Sigi, and Parigi Moutong. As the capital of Central Sulawesi, Palu City suffered the most losses. Population and economic activities were paralyzed when the disaster occurred. After the catastrophic disaster, Palu City implemented rehabilitation programs. If viewed within the disaster management cycle, Palu City is in the post-disaster stage, notably in rehabilitation and reconstruction. The existing disaster management system consists of pre-disaster, event, and post-disaster phases, which have not yet been implemented appropriately in regions that have ever been affected by catastrophic disasters. The disaster management cycle must be improved, especially its implementation for areas affected by catastrophic disasters. The cycle can be integrated with resilience theory so that rehabilitation and reconstruction prepare the system to bounce back better. Resilience is a proactive and sustainable response to areas that have experienced catastrophic disasters. The system must have the resilience to withstand future disasters better and bounce back from their impacts. This study aims to develop a rehabilitation and reconstruction model in the disaster management system, especially for areas affected by catastrophic disasters. The research methodology used is the comparative method. The research compares the existing disaster management cycle with the integrated resilience-disaster management cycle. This research aims to improve Palu City's resilience in the face of future disasters. The results of this research are to realize a better disaster management system through resilience theory and to develop the dimensions and aspects of the resilience-disaster management cycle.
