SAŽETAK: Prirodne katastrofe događaju se svuda u svijetu. One predstavljaju mnoge izazove društvu i pojedincima. Ti izazovi zahtijevaju da ljudi i zajednice budu pripravni i sposobni za učinkovit odgovor koji će ubrzati ponovnu uspostavu društvenog poretka i funkcioniranje društva. Učinkovit odgovor neke zajednice uključuje definiranje strategija za smanjenje rizika od prirodnih katastrofa, a one se sastoje od više elemenata: održavanje izgrađenog okoliša, razvoj sustava upozoravanja, razvoj znanja i sposobnosti za zajednički odgovor itd. Kako procesi upozoravanja i umanjivanja šteta nikad nisu potpuno učinkoviti, razvoj otpornog društva mora se usredotočiti na učenje i razvijanje znanja o zajednici, razumijevanje opasnosti i razvoj sposobnosti za odgovor i prilagodbu.

The world has agreed that people resilience to immediately recover from disaster should be a priority, considering the increase of disaster hazards as well as scientific and technological advances. Disaster impacts and risks can be reduced along with increasing people or community resilience towards hazards. Many studies have examined and measured the level of disaster resilience but have not reached the holistic aspect of sustainable development on a community scale. This study was carried out in the Cisolok District, Sukabumi, a highly landslide-prone region. This study uses a qualitative approach with a conceptual foundation of interpretative geography and also uses primary and secondary data. Primary data are obtained from field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Secondary data are obtained from literature studies in the collection of text and maps of published scientific works such as textbooks and study reports or research papers. The results of the study show that factors influence to disaster resilience are community capacities (social capital, disaster preparedness, and risk knowledge) and the roles of local institutions. Community resilience assessment efforts play a key role to identify less resilient regions as well as identify other factors that need to be considered by the government and all stakeholders to develop an inclusive and integrated disaster risk management framework in reducing disaster impacts and risks.
