The lead implementers of the Livestock Poultry Information – Early Warning System (LPI-EWS) project recognized the need to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the project, to further enhance the appropriate methodologies developed for a more responsive early warning system for broiler meat and pork to be properly guided in their planning and policy decision–making. The evaluation focused on the project’s strengths or weaknesses in terms of how it was able to achieve its set objectives, that are: to enhance network and access of unified data holdings within and among Department of Agriculture (DA) livestock agencies and statistical agencies, as well as its effectiveness in strengthening linkages with the private agribusiness sector (PABS), and with regards to the goal of capacity building and target publications. The relevance of the project is recognized, both by the personnel from the collaborating agencies as well as the PABS. The concept and manner by which the project is being implemented is commendable in that its many components and objectives were all touched simultaneously by the different activities conducted. The project was able to enhance network and access of unified data holdings within and among DA livestock agencies and had strengthened linkages between the government and the PABS. Goals with regards to capacity building and target publications were also achieved. At the national level Situation and Outlook for Broiler and Situation and Outlook for Swine are quarterly published and at the subnational level the Situationer Report for Broiler and Situationer Report for Swine are now being produced in the Batch I Regions III, IVA and X.

Seasonal disease risk prediction using disease epidemiological models and seasonal forecasts has been actively sought over the last decades, as it has been believed to be a key component in the disease early warning system for the pre-season planning of local or national level disease control. We conducted a retrospective study using the wheat blast outbreaks in Bangladesh, which occurred for the first time in Asia in 2016, to study a what-if scenario that if there was seasonal disease risk prediction at that time, the epidemics could be prevented or reduced through prediction-based interventions. Two factors govern the answer: the seasonal disease risk prediction is accurate enough to use, and there are effective and realistic control measures to be used upon the prediction. In this study, we focused on the former. To simulate the wheat blast risk and wheat yield in the target region, a high-resolution climate reanalysis product and spatiotemporally downscaled seasonal climate forecasts from eight global climate models were used as inputs for both models. The calibrated wheat blast model successfully simulated the spatial pattern of disease epidemics during the 2014–2018 seasons and was subsequently used to generate seasonal wheat blast risk prediction before each winter season starts. The predictability of the resulting predictions was evaluated against observation-based model simulations. The potential value of utilizing the seasonal wheat blast risk prediction was examined by comparing actual yields resulting from the risk-averse (proactive) and risk-disregarding (conservative) decisions. Overall, our results from this retrospective study showed the feasibility of seasonal forecast-based early warning system for the pre-season strategic interventions of forecasted wheat blast in Bangladesh.

Indonesian territory is a disaster-prone region. There are at least 12 disaster threats that are grouped in geological disasters (earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, landslides), hydrometeorological disasters (floods, flash floods, droughts, extreme weather, extreme waves, forest and land fires), and anthropogenic disasters (epidemics of disease outbreaks and failed technology-industrial accidents). Landslides or land movements in Indonesia in recent years have increased in intensity and frequency. One of the efforts to reduce the risk of landslides that has been carried out by the Disaster Risk Reduction Technology Center-BPPT is to build an Landslide Early Warning System in Jatiradio Village, Cililin District, West Bandung Regency. In order to uniform the implementation of an early warning system for landslides or land movements in disaster prone areas, the government has established a national standard namely SNI 8235: 2017 on the Early Warning System for Land Movements. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the compliance between the Landslide Early Warning System that has been developed by PTRRB-BPPT with the Indonesian National Standard for the Land Movement Early Warning System (SNI 8235: 2017). Based on the results of data analysis and evaluation, it can be concluded that the implementation of the landslide early warning system in Jatiradio Village, Cililin Village, Cililin District, West Bandung Regency is in accordance with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI 8235: 2017) concerning the Soil Movement Early Warning System.

Oneof the important aspects in reducing Tsunami Risk is understanding Natural Hazards. The loss of INA TEWS equipment worth hundreds of billions of rupiah and the occurrence of the Tsunami in Aceh and other parts of Indonesia are warnings that our society needs the help of effective early warning tools at affordable prices. Using this device will make it easier for the community to monitor natural events from the field and reduce disaster risk. Currently the government has purchased hundreds of units of JRC-UNESCO products, namely IDSL (Inexpensive Device for Sea Level), but this device takes 21 minutes of information to reach the community. Therefore, a new device that has been prepared is needed. (FIDELA EARLY WARNING SYSTEM/FEWS) is a tool that involves the Equipment sector, Operations sector and Community sector. The results shows that this device is that the time for sending information to the public is only 5 minutes.

The Early Warning System (EWS) was developed in this research aiming to forecast and monitor the Residual Value Risk (RVR) in PPP projects. RVR is a structured risk system which would happen at any time in the whole life before transfer of PPP projects, but consequently causes the Residual Value (RV) that the Government takes over cannot fulfill the specifications. To establish the EWS of RVR, the factor system was identified through questionnaire survey and evaluated based on statistical analysis. Besides the RVR could be learned by CBR, so a great amount of history PPP projects which have been already transferred should be structured into a case base. Furthermore, the conception of System vulnerability was applied to open up the link between the RVR and the RV, and the proper method was selected to determine the early-warning threshold. The main function of the EWS is monitoring the RVR of current PPP projects and warning the potential RV threat or opportunity.

Abstract. It was envisioned that the framework of the German-Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System (GITEWS) should achieve an integral architecture and overarching technical design of an end-to-end tsunami early warning system (TEWS). In order to achieve this ambitious goal on a national and local level, a tailored set of capacity building measures has been started and implemented. The programme was meant and designed to meet requirements and urgent needs considering awareness raising campaigns, technical trainings and higher level education programs. These components have been integrated as complementary modules in order to ensure facilitating the early warning system to be operated, maintained and improved, and that institutions and people in coastal areas will respond adequately and timely in case of future tsunamis. Remarkable progress has been accomplished as well as programs and campaigns are being implemented in regard to a sustainable capacity development conducted by national institutions in Indonesia. Yet, local administrative and preparedness efforts on the Indonesian coastlines are still underdeveloped. This stems from the fact of missing links towards sustainable coastal zone management schemes on a broad local level. Yet, the demand and urgent need for an adequate and integrated disaster risk reduction and management addressing also other hazards in the region of interest is (still) substantial. Given the tragic loss of life and severe damages resulting from the December 2004 tsunami and recent series of severe earthquakes, the need for urgent mitigating action in the imperilled coastal regions of Sumatra and Java remains extremely high. The conceptual Capacity Building framework, its anticipated goals in the beginning of the project and, lately, the finally achieved objectives are promising. A significant contribution for mainstreaming scientific approaches and transfer methodological disaster risk reduction attempts towards other regions exposed to coastal hazards is still pending. Local authorities and researchers in tentative affected regions are now trained and enabled to disseminate and apply their knowledge and planning experience to other coastal regions in the area to help facilitating and multiplying effective disaster management plans and strategies. Yet, the Capacity Building framework within GITEWS also elucidated gaps in the early warning chain so that updated and to some extent re-iterated needs and demands in Capacity Building programs in any future research or development cooperation project are presented and discussed.

After the earthquake and tsunami in Aceh on December 26, 2004, the government has developed an early warning system calledInaTEWS (Indonesia Tsunami Early Warning System) using a tsunami siren that aims to build community capacity to prepare and take action on tsunami hazards. The purpose of this study was to determine public knowledge, the benefits of siren activation, sound range and public perception of tsunami siren activation. Data collection uses descriptive qualitative and quantitative methods with instruments in the form of a validated questionnaire. Respondents involved were people who lived within a radius of 1 km, 2 km, and 3 km from the tsunami siren point. H asyl research shows that people's perceptions of tsunami siren activation vary , with the level of community knowledge being classified as good (with an average value of 77 , 25 %), as well as the benefits of tsunami siren activation being considered good by the community (with an average rating of 76 , 05%). The range of siren sounds is still quite sufficient (with an average value of 74 , 44 %) and the average public perception of siren activation as a whole is 76% with a good category. Even though the category is good, the average score is not maximal yet. Therefore, to increase knowledge and benefit from tsunami siren activation, awareness and care from the community must be raised. The government must also continue to deliver disaster information on an ongoing basis so that the community can fully understand the function of the tsunami siren.
