<![CDATA[Due to the widespread impact of floods on various aspects of community life, especially among adolescents, disaster literacy has become an urgent priority. In an effort to improve adolescent preparedness for disasters, several digital-based disaster education methods have been developed at both national and international levels, showing positive results. One innovative method currently being explored is the Digicom (Digital Comic), which utilizes visual and narrative strengths to convey disaster-related information. Objective: To determine the effect of Digicom (Digital Comic) in increasing adolescents’ knowledge about disaster management. Methods: This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The sampling technique used was total sampling with a sample size of 33 students XII class. The research instruments included a knowledge questionnaire and a digital comic on flood prevention. Data analysis was performed using the paired sample t-test. Results: The mean knowledge scores before and after the intervention were 47.88 and 61.97, respectively. The paired sample t-test showed a p-value = 0.001 (p-value < 0.05), indicating a significant effect of Digicom on adolescents’ knowledge. Conclusion: In the modern Gen Z era, Digicom is an effective, relatively creative, simple, and engaging method for educating adolescents]]>
