Building resilience to natural hazards in Indonesia: progress and challenges in implementing the Hyogo Framework for Action
Summary
The study assesses Indonesia's implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA) 2005–2015, finding that while regulatory frameworks and non-government participation have driven progress, resilience is hindered by local government capacity gaps and a lack of mainstreaming into development agendas. Future challenges include urban risk governance and the integration of disaster risk reduction with climate change adaptation.
Key insights
- Progress in building disaster resilience in Indonesia has been primarily driven by the availability of regulatory policies and frameworks, as well as the involvement of various non-government stakeholders.
- Several factors impede the disaster risk reduction process, specifically a lack of capacity and capability within local governments, insufficient systematic learning, and a failure by the government to integrate disaster risk reduction into broader development agendas.
- Future efforts to build resilience are likely to be challenged by the need for urban risk governance and the integration of climate change adaptation with disaster risk reduction.
