Introduction: the purpose of the paper is to study the UN Global platform for disaster risk reduction as a format of the international intergovernmental conference. Methods: the methodological framework for the study is a set of methods of scientific knowledge, among which the main are the methods of comparison, consistency, analysis. Results: the UN global platform for disaster risk reduction is a global, interim event for the implementation of The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. It takes place in the form of a multi-level forum involving various participants. Its purpose is the exchange of experience and discussion of pressing problems in the implementation of certain areas of the universal disaster risk reduction program. The author highlights both positive and negative aspects of this forum, reveals its theoretical and practical essence. Conclusions: the study showed that the global platform is indeed an international intergovernmental conference of an expanded format. The increased interest in the event indicates its importance, quality and effectiveness.

Landslide Risk Reduction

Landslides have occurred in various places in Indonesia. Likewise with West Java, there were many regions that has experienced repeated landslides. Having many experience of occurrences of landslides, we should have had a good landslide risk reduction program. Indeed, the incidence of landslides depends on many variables. Due to that condition, it may that a region would have different variable with another region. So it is impossible to generalize the implementation of a mitigation technology for all areas prone to landslides. Research of the Cililin's landslide is to anticipate the next disasters that may happen in around the area of 2013 Cililin Landslide. Through observation lithological conditions, water condition, land cover and landscape, as well as consideration of wide dimension of the building footing, the distance of building to the slopes and so forth, it has been determined some efforts of disaster risk reduction in the area around the landslide against the occurrence of potential landslide in the future.Bencana tanah longsor telah terjadi di berbagai tempat di Indonesia. Demikian halnya dengan Jawa Barat, tidak sedikit daerahnya telah berulang kali mengalami longsor. Seharusnya dengan telah banyaknya kejadian longsor, kita mampu mengupayakan program penurunan risiko longsor secara baik. Memang kejadian longsor bergantung pada banyak variabel, dimana dari satu daerah dengan daerah yang lain akan sangat memungkinkan mempunyai variabel yang berbeda, sehingga tidak mungkin kita membuat generalisasi penerapan suatu teknologi mitigasinya untuk semua daerah rawan longsor. Penelitian longsor di Cililin dilakukan untuk mengantisipasi terjadinya bencana di sekitar daerah Longsor Cililin 2013 yang lalu. Melalui pengamatan kondisi litologi, keairan, tutupan lahan dan bentang alam yang ada, serta pertimbangan akan dimensi luas pijakan bangunan, jarak batas bangunan dengan lereng dan lain sebagainya, telah ditentukan beberapa upaya penurunan risiko bencana di daerah sekitar longsor terhadap potensi kejadian longsor dimasa mendatang.Keywords: Landslide, risk reduction, footing of building, Cililin

This study explores the importance of indigenous knowledge for everyday practices of disaster risk reduction and response. Many existing studies have highlighted the need to integrate such knowledge with modern science. Based on ethnographic research in indigenous communities in the Mentawai Islands of Indonesia, this study explores the categorization of indigenous knowledge in the integration process. To that end, primary data were collected through in-depth interviews while secondary data were collected from relevant documents, including books, articles, websites and government and NGO reports. The findings indicate that indigenous knowledge is acquired through long observation and interaction with disasters. Although some of this knowledge is based on successes in other localities, some indigenous knowledge is completely local, homogenous and shared among community members. It was also established that indigenous knowledge can be meaningfully organized into a number of categories, and that indigenous knowledge of a technical nature is more likely to be integrated with scientific knowledge. The research was exploratory and approached indigenous knowledge issues from the point of view of indigenous communities themselves. This approach should be replicated and expanded in other indigenous communities.

The tourism potential that is born from the concept of leading tourism in a village can increase people's income. The development of a village into a tourism village is not only by optimizing the existing tourism potential but also by paying attention to the protection of tourists and village communities from disaster factors. West Pentadio Village is bordered by Limboto Lake so that it has enormous potential if it is developed into tourism. However, Pentadio Barat Village is also prone to disasters so tourism development must be accompanied by efforts to reduce disaster risks. Programs implemented through the Thematic Community Service Program Period I 2020 entitled "Optimizing Tourism Potential and Reducing Disaster Risk in West Pentadio Village to Support Sustainable Development in the Limboto Plains Area, Gorontalo District" include: 1) survey of tourism potential; 2) survey of potential disasters; 3) making tourist information boards; 4) creating a disaster risk reduction information board; 5) development of a tourism module; 6) creation of a disaster module; 7) socialization of SDGs, tourism and disasters; 8) action program to optimize tourism potential; 9) disaster risk reduction program action; 10) educational programs through geothermal schools; 11) making information media; and 12) additional programs. These KKN programs form the basis for the next steps towards realizing integrated tourism and disaster risk reduction at Pentadio Barat. Keywords: tourism, disaster, geothermal, flood

Resilience Assessment

Hospital disaster resilience assessment is a process of analysing the condition of the site, building, people and operations through a checklist of indicators (i.e., structural, non-structural and functional). As in 2011, Global Platform on Disaster Risk Reduction has been established with twofold objectives: 1) by 2011, assessments on the safety of existing hospital facilities to be undertaken and 2) by 2015, action plans for hospitals should be developed and implemented in disaster prone countries. Howbeit the initiative was established, valid instruments for assessing resilience of existing hospital are lacking particularly in Malaysia. Hence, the objective of the paper is to evaluate the content validity of the disaster resilience hospital assessment instrument. Two methods were employed in the form of document analysis (7 instruments) and CVR & CVI questionnaire (6 experts). Based on the document analysis, 129 elements with three main constructs are suggested to be incorporated in the instrument. The CVR scores revealed that 48 out of 129 items are regarded as the utmost critical (structural - 2; non-structural - 7; and functional - 39). The findings for I-CVI and modified kappa coefficient however revealed that 122 items in the instrument are appropriate and excellent. The remaining seven items values are considered fair and poor and recommended to be eliminated. In addition, based on the S-CVI/Ave it is revealed that the content validity of the proposed instrument is adequate. As for this reason, it is noteworthy that the instrument to be highly regarded for evaluating the existing hospitals’ resilience.
