Integrated Disaster Management Governance in Supporting Regional Resilience: A Case Study of Pidie Jaya Regency, Indonesia

Abstract

Pidie Jaya Regency is one of the disaster-prone areas in Aceh Province, Indonesia, facing complex challenges in disaster risk management, including planning and budgeting consistency, institutional capacity, and community preparedness. This study aims to analyze the implementation of integrated disaster management governance in supporting regional resilience in Pidie Jaya Regency. A qualitative descriptive approach with a case study method was employed, utilizing policy document analysis, data from the Indonesian Disaster Risk Index (IRBI) and the Regional Resilience Index (IKD), as well as interviews with relevant stakeholders. The findings indicate that the integration of disaster management into regional development planning, budgeting, and cross-sectoral programs contributes significantly to enhancing regional resilience. This is evidenced by a decline in IRBI values and an improvement in IKD scores during the observation period. Integrated governance strengthens inter-institutional coordination, enhances institutional capacity, and increases community involvement in disaster risk reduction. This study confirms that strengthening integrated disaster management governance is a key determinant in achieving sustainable regional resilience, particularly in disaster-prone regions.
