Abstract

The effectiveness of disaster preparedness cannot be measured solely from the existence of an early warning system (EWS). Warnings without prompt and coordinated action risk losing their significance in saving lives. In practice, many regions face challenges when warning signals are received, but response and resource mobilization are slow. This demonstrates that preparedness does not stop at detection systems, but rather relies on institutional, social, and technical capacity to act promptly. This opinion piece examines the limitations of EWS implementation in Indonesia from three dimensions: technical (limited reach and data interoperability), social (low risk literacy and community engagement), and institutional (unintegrated command, logistics, and anticipatory financing). This condition is exacerbated by weak coordination at the local level, including in the activation of volunteers and social networks, so that vulnerable groups are often not reached by warnings or early assistance. Based on lessons learned from case studies in Indonesia and international literature on anticipatory action, this paper emphasizes the need to review preparedness indicators by including aspects of resource mobilization as a main component. Policy recommendations include strengthening the capacity of Disaster Resilient Villages in the dissemination of warnings (last-mile warning), the application of the mechanism trigger and anticipatory financing, as well as the integration of preparedness with health services, education, logistics, search and rescue, and refugee readiness. This new approach positions preparedness not simply as the ability to receive warnings, but as an integrated system capable of translating warnings into concrete, life-saving actions.

Abstract

Background: Natural disasters continue to pose significant challenges globally, particularly in disaster-prone middle-income countries such as Indonesia, where communities are frequently exposed to hydrometeorological and geological hazards. While structural mitigation remains important, non-structural and community-based approaches are increasingly emphasized to enhance contextual relevance and community engagement in disaster risk reduction. This study aimed to develop and assess the feasibility of a community-based non-structural disaster mitigation module integrating local knowledge as an educational resource for disaster-prone communities. Methods: The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using a simplified adaptation of the Borg and Gall model. The development process included a needs assessment through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions, module design and development, expert validation, and a limited field trial with target community users. Data were collected using qualitative methods and structured questionnaires, and analyzed descriptively to examine feasibility, acceptability, and relevance.. Results: The results indicate that the developed module achieved high feasibility scores across content, presentation, language, and integration of local knowledge. User assessments from the limited field trial demonstrated high levels of acceptability and relevance, particularly in relation to clarity, contextual suitability, and usefulness as a learning resource. Revisions based on expert and user feedback were incorporated into the final version of the module.. Conclusions: In conclusion, this study provides early empirical evidence supporting the feasibility and acceptability of a community-based non-structural disaster mitigation module that integrates local knowledge. The module shows potential for use as an educational tool to support community disaster preparedness activities within similar middle-income country contexts.Keywords: Community-based disaster risk reduction;  Non-structural disaster mitigation;   Module development; Local knowledge integration; Research and Development
