Abstract

The continuous evidence of climate change highlights the fact that it is a critical worldwide issue with potentially disastrous consequences for agricultural systems and the livelihoods of socioeconomically disadvantaged societies. This research explores dairy producers perceptions of temperature and precipitation changes, their adaptation strategies, and the influencing factors behind these strategies. Data on dairy producers' perceptions was collected by means of a household survey and analyzed utilizing descriptive statistics and graphical representations. Climate data for the study area (19852014) was sourced from the Uganda National Meteorological Authority. It was then analyzed using trend analysis. Results from trend analysis were then used to compare with dairy farmers responses. Notably, the results show significant agreement between dairy farmers' perceptions and empirical climate data, indicating a clear understanding of climate dynamics. This understanding informs their adaptation practices, which have proven to be diverse and context dependent. These practices include the creation of animal pastures, reforestation, reducing the size of herds through sales, utilizing drought-resistant breeds, and purchasing feed additives for livestock. In addition, the study found that access to credit, household size, education level, and gender are important factors affecting pastoralists' adaptability. These results underscore the importance of recognizing and leveraging farmers' experiential knowledge when developing targeted climate adaptation strategies for specific localities. By bridging the gap between perception and reality, this research provides valuable insights for policymakers for developing tailored climate adaptation strategies and improving resilience within dairy-producing communities in response to climate change

Abstract

This study critically examines the contribution of environmental diplomacy in disaster risk reduction (DRR), emphasizing its importance in mitigating the impacts of natural hazards exacerbated by climate change. As global environmental challenges increase, the intersection of international diplomatic efforts and DRR becomes essential for promoting resilience and reducing vulnerabilities. Through a comprehensive analysis of the UNDRR Frameworks, this research investigates how environmental diplomacy contributes to DRR by facilitating international cooperation, enhancing resource allocation, and fostering knowledge dissemination. The study employs an interpretive qualitative inductive methodology, incorporating case studies to identify best practices and challenges in aligning environmental diplomacy with DRR objectives. Findings reveal that robust environmental diplomacy significantly enhances disaster preparedness by promoting cross-border collaboration, accelerating access to climate finance, and integrating local capacities into global frameworks. However, challenges remain, particularly in terms of implementation gaps, accessibility to financial resources, and the representation of vulnerable nations in decision-making processes. Key recommendations include strengthening international diplomatic engagements, streamlining climate finance mechanisms, and promoting regional cooperation to address shared risks. Additionally, the study advocates for integrating DRR into national development policies, enhancing community-based resilience efforts, and improving monitoring and evaluation systems to track DRR progress. The research concludes that by reinforcing the synergies between environmental diplomacy and DRR, the global community can better address the increasing risks posed by climate-related disasters and build more sustainable, resilient societies

Abstract

Agriculture is the main livelihood of residents in Sempu Village, Ngancar District, Kediri Regency. Agriculture in this region has a high level of disaster risk because it is located in the disaster-prone area of Mount Kelud. The potential for damage to agricultural land due to the Kelud volcanic eruption will increase the vulnerability of farmers. Vulnerability assessment is important because one of the efforts to reduce disaster risk is to reduce vulnerability. Vulnerability assessments are often carried out on heterogeneous societal subjects and not based on specific subjects or professions. In fact, farmers are a profession that is more vulnerable than other professions and have various characteristics that can influence vulnerability. Therefore, this research aims to examine socio-economic vulnerability with a greater focus on farmers to find out how vulnerable farmers in Sempu Village are and what characteristics farmers are most vulnerable to. This research uses scoring and weighting methods using AHP (analytical hierarchy process) to analyze data and survey methods to collect data. The results of the vulnerability assessment show that 77% of farmers in Sempu Village have low social vulnerability. As many as 52% of farmers have moderate economic vulnerability, 31% have high economic vulnerability. Elderly farmers in Sempu Village have the highest level of social vulnerability. Farmers who have limited land and loan capital have the highest level of economic vulnerability. Women farmers show higher levels of social and economic vulnerability than all farmers.

Abstract

Family interactions are needed in disasters because they play an important role in strengthening the emotional bonds between family members. In husband-wife interaction, different family roles and functions make couples feel complementary. This study aims to analyze the influence of socioeconomics, religiosity, and coping strategies on the interaction of husband and wife families of earthquake survivors in the Cianjur district. The study population was families of earthquake survivors in Cianjur Regency. The research sample was selected using a stratified non-proportional random sampling technique based on lightly damaged and heavily damaged houses. Respondents in the study were the wives of earthquake survivors in Cianjur Regency, with 200 respondents. Data processing and analysis used Microsoft Excel, Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) 25.0 for descriptive analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) for influence analysis. The results showed high religiosity, spousal interaction involvement, and high satisfaction. Coping strategies, frequency of husband and wife interaction, and potential conflict between husband and wife are in the medium category. This study shows that husband and wife interaction is positively influenced by husband and wife's education, age of marriage, family income-expenses, and religiosity and negatively influenced by husband and wife's age. In addition, religiosity also has a positive effect on coping strategies. This study implies that families of disaster survivors are expected to increase family religiosity to improve husband and wife interactions. Local governments are advised to conduct adequate education for community readiness to face disasters.

Abstract

Studies evaluating teenage knowledge, attitudes, experiences, and readiness for disasters in high-risk areas are scarce, nevertheless. Determine the elements that influence teenage readiness for disasters in an area with a high disaster risk index. 170 high school students in their eleventh grade participated in an anonymous online survey as part of a cross-sectional study design. Purposive sampling was used to choose the respondents. Surabaya was chosen as the study site because it has a high disaster risk index. The partial impact of knowledge, attitudes, experience, and disaster preparedness was determined using the t-test, and the R-Square. It was found that attitudes and prior experience regarding disaster preparedness had a partial influence. The partial test between experience and disaster preparedness and the partial test between attitude and disaster preparedness showed that teenagers in an area with a high disaster risk index had different attitudes and experiences when it came to being prepared for disasters. According to the report, high schools and the government should encourage regular training so that teenagers can get positive attitudes and more experience with disaster preparedness

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the knowledge level of Generation Z regarding the local wisdom of the Aceh community in disaster mitigation. A descriptive quantitative method was used, with students from Syiah Kuala University representing Generation Z as the sample. Data were collected using a true/false test administered to the students. The data were then analyzed using statistical formulas, with knowledge levels classified into high, medium, and low categories. The results showed that, for each aspect of Acehs local wisdom in disaster mitigation, the students' knowledge level was below 20% (58 respondents). Out of a total of 288 respondents, only 17% (49 students) exhibited a high level of knowledge, 19% (55 students) a low level, and 64% (184 students) a medium level regarding the local wisdom of the Aceh community for disaster mitigation. In conclusion, the study suggests that Aceh's local wisdom for disaster mitigation may be at risk of fading among future generations. Thus, there is a need for serious efforts from both the government and the Aceh community to socialize and internalize this local wisdom among the younger generation.

Abstract

Academic libraries are faced with natural and man-made disasters that can affect service delivery and loss of life to staff and patrons. The study was done to discuss the disaster preparedness and management practices to be observed by academic libraries and identify the enabling and disabling factors towards the successful management of the experienced disasters. The study was conducted as a systematic literature review where articles were retrieved using relevant keywords from Emerald, Sage, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar where 8753 articles were identified, and 39 articles were reviewed after screening. Using the content analysis approach, the practices that should be factored in disaster preparedness and management plans were analysed. The findings showed that academic libraries were affected by fires, floods, digital disasters, earthquakes, cyclones, typhoons, storms, tornadoes, COVID-19, pest infestation, vandalism, theft, unstable electric power, war, and bomb threats. The disaster preparedness and management practices employed included risk assessment, emergency response planning, staff training, collection protection, digital preservation, backup and recovery, communication and outreach, and collaboration and partnerships. The enabling and disabling factors were funding, awareness, infrastructure, staffing, and collaboration. The authors recommend that academic libraries should have disaster preparedness plans, collaborate and establish partnerships, invest in technology and infrastructure, train both staff and users on dealing with disasters, and insure the library buildings and collections. The study would inform academic library administrators, policymakers, and disaster management professionals in academic institutions about effective strategies that can used to deal with disasters.

Abstract

Disasters can incur risks to life, property, and the environment, whether caused by natural, human-made, or technological hazards. However, mitigating some risks through effective planning and preparedness can lower exposure and vulnerability. Risk mitigation is particularly essential at institutions of higher education (IHE), where transient populations may be at greater risk. Thus, our study aimed to assess the disaster preparedness of a campus community at an IHE in the United States. We also aimed to identify strategies to support effective hazard mitigation planning and preparedness, the results of which may help foster a culture of preparedness on campus. To do this, undergraduate students developed and deployed a campus questionnaire to assess public risk perception and disaster preparedness. The questionnaire results (n=470) indicated a need for enhanced enrollment in emergency alert systems, more comprehensive disaster training, and increased awareness of campus hazards among the campus community, including visitors unfamiliar with the campus. Students used these results to develop hazard mitigation strategies, which they then presented and discussed with campus stakeholders at an end-of-semester stakeholder summit. Through this process, students directly engaged in disaster preparedness on campus. This study highlights the importance of fostering disaster preparedness at IHEs by assessing the campus community's perceptions and preparedness levels by engaging students in active learning to promote disaster risk reduction.

Abstract

The mudflow disaster has made the surrounding community's residential areas vulnerable, so efforts are needed to strengthen the communitys adaptive capacity to reduce vulnerability. This study aims to develop strategies to minimize settlements vulnerability based on communities adaptive capacity in areas impacted by the Lapindo mudflow disaster in Sidoarjo, Indonesia. The research method used is the explanatory sequential mixed methods approach with quantitative primary data obtained from structured questionnaires and qualitative data from field surveys and interviews, with analysis in the form of integrating the two databases. The research results showed that the level of community adaptive capacity was moderate, slightly above the average score (3.19). The lowest score was on education level (1.78), and the highest score was on social relations (4,36). The strategies to reduce vulnerability are increasing public education, empowering the community's economy, increasing the availability and capacity of disaster infrastructure, conducting massive reforestation, providing technical assistance, access to banking facilities, clean water networks and distillation, and supporting community activities in social, cultural, and religious fields, as well as strengthening village institutions. This study concludes that social, cultural, and religious variables play a role and become important capital in increasing the community's adaptive capacity, which can later reduce vulnerability in an area towards a disaster-resilient area.

Abstract

Puting beliung (PB), a tornado-like event in Indonesia, poses significant threats to communities and infrastructure, yet research on their characteristics and impacts remains limited. This study systematically reviews the progress of PB research in Indonesia through an analysis of 58 relevant studies, focusing on geographical distribution, characteristics, impacts, and mitigation efforts. Using Google Scholar as the primary search engine for scientific journal retrieval and implementing the PRISMA methodology for systematic literature review, this study ensures a comprehensive and structured analysis of existing research. Findings indicate that PB events predominantly occur in Java, with notably fewer documented cases in eastern Indonesia. These events are influenced by atmospheric conditions and spatiotemporal patterns, with psychological and structural impacts on affected communities. Existing mitigation strategies, including early warning systems, show promise but face challenges in public engagement and coordination, particularly in post-disaster recovery phases. The review highlights the need for integrating advanced technologies such as remote sensing and machine learning to improve prediction accuracy and develop a comprehensive PB event database. By synthesizing existing research, this study identifies and underscores the necessity for more extensive investigations, particularly under-research regions. Future research should prioritize improving forecasting models, expanding the geographical scope of studies, and enhancing disaster management strategies to minimize PB-related risks. Strengthening public awareness and response mechanisms is crucial to reducing vulnerabilities and improving resilience.
