Kontinjensi adalah suatu kondisi yang bisa terjadi, tetapi belum tentu benar-benar terjadi. Perencanaan kontinjensi merupakan suatu upaya untuk merencanakan sesuatu peristiwa yang mungkin terjadi, tetapi tidak menutup kemungkinan peristiwa itu tidak akan terjadi. Perencanaan Kontinjensi sesuai dengan ketentuan Pasal 17 ayat (3) PP 21/2008 dilakukan pada kondisi kesiapsiagaan yang menghasilkan dokumen Rencana Kontinjensi (Contingency Plan).

Dokumen rencana kontingensi adalah dokumen yang disusun melalui suatu proses perencanaan penanganan situasi darurat bencana pada jenis bahaya tertentu, in an uncertain situation, with agreed scenarios and objectives, technical and managerial measures are defined, and a mutually agreed upon potential response and deployment system for prevention, atau menanggulangi secara lebih baik dalam situasi darurat dan ditetapkan secara formal.

Kelurahan Nanggewer Susun Rencana Kontingensi Bencana Banjir

Kelurahan Nanggewer adalah salah satu wilayah yang memiliki ancaman bencana banjir. Beberapa kali banjir yang merugikan terjadi di wilayah ini, di antaranya pada tahun 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2023. Puluhan rumah terendam, bahkan pada kejadian banjir 2019 terdapat empat rumah yang hanyut terbawa arus Sungai Cikeas. Berdasarkan sejarah kejadian bencana banjir yang menimpa wilayah ini, warga memilih untuk membuat rencana kontingensi banjir. Hal ini dilakukan sebagai salah satu upaya meningkatkan kesiapsiagaan menghadapi bencana.

Penyusunan rencana kontingensi, dilakukan dengan membuat skenario kejadian dan asumsi dampak terparah yang mungkin akan terjadi di Kelurahan Nanggewer. Kemudian dilanjutkan dengan pemetaan sumber daya manusia dan juga peralatan yang dapat dimobilisasi ketika bencana terjadi. Lalu dilanjutkan dengan pembentukan struktur pos komando tanggap darurat bencana serta menyepakati tugas pokok dan fungsi dari masing-masing struktur yang dibentuk. Para peserta juga menyusun rencana operasi tanggap darurat bencana. Kegiatan diakhiri dengan penyelenggaraan table top exercise atau latihan di atas meja mengenai dokumen yang telah disusun.

Ratri Pudyastuti (44) salah satu peserta penyusunan dokumen rencana kontingensi menyampaikan bahwa kegiatan ini sangat bermanfaat untuk membuka wawasan mengenai hal yang akan kita lakukan ketika menghadapi situasi sesaat sebelum terjadinya bencana.

“Dari pelatihan ini, kita jadi tahu langkah – langkah apa saja yang harus dilakukan untuk bisa meminimalisir kerugian akan dampak yang akan terjadi” kata Ratri.

Data states that the Baribis Fault is an active fault that stretches from east to west of the island of Java. The Baribis Fault is the longest fault on the island of Java. This fault crosses south of Indramayu[1], west side of Subang and Purwakarta, Karawang, Cibatu (Bekasi), Depok, Jakarta to Tangerang and Rangkasbitung. Keberadaan Sesar ini masih menjadi dugaan bahkan disebut-sebut sebagai ancaman besar bagi Jakarta.

This fault stretches along 25 Km in South Jakarta. This fault is responsible for the earthquake in 1834 in Bogor with force 7.0 Mw which causes mass destruction in the surrounding area. This fault shifted again this year 1862 and caused a powerful earthquake 6.5 Mw in Karawang Regency

As a country whose geological location is in the regionring of firewhich is very disaster prone, Indonesia is seen as not yet maximizing collective memory and local knowledge as a form of disaster risk reduction. Unwritten knowledge becomes the local wisdom of the community, just a legend, story of mouth, local poetry, song/song, dll.

On this basis, Indonesian scale together School of Strategic and Global Studies, University of Indonesia (SKSG-UI), Association of Indonesian Geologists (IAGI) supported by USAID-KUAT held this investigation with a disaster mitigation research mission calledBaribis Fault Expeditionto the West Java region, including Bekasi, Purwakarta, Sumedang, Majalengka, Subang, Bogor dan Depok.

“Tracking through this expedition is very important, because literacy about the history of disasters in Indonesia is spread in various regions, both in the form of oral and written traditions, through ancient texts. And there is still very little information about the history of disasters in Indonesia, which is traced through oral traditions and also written traditions through various existing ancient manuscripts. Especially related to threats in Jakarta, which is suspected to be due to movement of the Baribis fault, there is still very limited information.” This is according to Trinirmalaningrum, Direktur Skala Indonesia.

Meanwhile USAID-KUAT expressed its support for the implementation of the Baribis Expedition. “USAID KUAT really supports this activity, and glad that this expedition will be

along urban and rural areas crossed by the Baribis Fault," explained Bill Marsden, Project Director USAID KUAT-Miyamoto International. Marsden also added, that when a large earthquake occurred, it was destructive in 2018 1834 which is thought to be caused by the Baribis Fault, The population of Java Island was still much smaller than it is now. Unfortunately until now, with an increasingly high and dense population, especially in urban areas, Most house developments still do not pay attention to earthquake resistance aspects. as a result, Damage and loss often arise even if the earthquake shock is small. So that, when an earthquake due to the Baribis Fault occurs, dampak dan kerugian yang timbul bisa sangat signifikan.

"Therefore, The Baribis Expedition is very important to find out traces of earthquake disasters in the past, help formulate mitigation strategies in the present, and also increase public knowledge about simple steps that can be taken to be more resilient in facing earthquakes", ujar Marsden lagi.

Person in Charge of the Baribis Fault Expedition Team, Trinirmala Ningrum, explain, The Baribis fault was chosen because there is still very little literacy about this fault. Based on several records, people in the areas that the expedition team will traverse have experienced damage due to earthquakes, for example in the Nunuk village area, Majalengka, they still perform various traditional ceremonies, after the earthquake occurred, This is an initial indication that needs to be re-examined, for example, bagaimana ingatan kolektif tersebut masih terus dipelihara.

“Of course the results of this research will be given to the local government, as part and reference to build community awareness in the region, " Said Trinirmala. It must be admitted that so far our approach has been based on developing technology. We forget the most important thing is how to increase literacy in society, especially for efforts to minimize the loss of life caused by the earthquake and tsunami,said Trinirmala

12 Young Researchers Explore the Baribis Fault Route

This Baribis Fault Expedition involves 12 a researcher with a historical background, Sociology, Anthropology and Geology. Later the research team will conduct research in the area thought to be traversed by the Baribis fault. Specifically, the team will also assess the village's resilience in accordance with BNPB Perka Number 1/2012 as well as assessing resilient cities using several indicators set by UNDRR – the UN Agency for Disaster Risk Reduction. Riset ini akan dilaksanakan pada bulan Mei.

Whereas, outputfrom the expedition, that is, to make a book, popular article, short videos and documentaries. Which one, This will also be followed by a series of public discussions on disaster knowledge and threats. "We will later advocate the results of this expedition to the government so that it can be used as a consideration in its policy,” he concluded.(THAT)

Based on the Regulation of the Head of the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) no 2 Year 2012, Disaster risk assessment is an approach to show the potential negative impacts that may arise as a result of a potential disaster that strikes. The potential negative impacts that arise are calculated based on the level of vulnerability and capacity of the area. This potential negative impact can be seen from the potential number of people exposed, property loss, dan kerusakan lingkungan.

2 Subdistrict Conducts Disaster Risk Assessment

Every region should have a disaster risk assessment which can be used as a reference for development. Disaster risk assessment is one of the services included in the Minimum Service Standards (SPM) Disaster Affairs Sub. Layanan ini merupakan jenis dan mutu layanan urusan bencana yang berhak diterima oleh warga negara secara minimal yang dilakukan oleh pemerintah tingkat kab/ kota.

Urban Communities for Resilient Action Program (STRONG) present as an effort to increase the capacity of communities in areas at high risk of disaster. The STRONG program is a three-year funded projectUnited States Agency for International Development (USAID) which is implemented through a consortium consisting of Miyamoto, Wahana Vision Indonesia (WVI), dan Catholic Relief Services (CRS).

The KUAT program is carried out in the Jakarta area, Line. Tangerang and Kab. Bogor. Implementation of the KUAT program in Kab. Bogor dilakukan oleh CRS dengan mitra Yayasan Skala Indonesia yang melaksanakan program di wilayah Kelurahan Nanggewer dan Kelurahan Pondok Rajeg.

Participatory disaster risk assessment is one part of the activities in the KUAT Program. This process begins with doingworkshop disaster risk study attended by community representatives consisting of sub-district officials, female representatives, youth representation and disability representation carried out on 2-4 February 2024 in Pondok Rajeg Village and 1-3 March 2024 di Kelurahan Nanggewer.

Residents participatively assess disaster threats from historical disaster studies and secondary data such as disaster threat data on the Inarisk page. Then residents calculate socio-economic and physical vulnerabilities based on BNPB Perka No 2 year 2012. The assessment of sub-district capacity in facing disasters is calculated using the SNI Village/Subdistrict Resilience Assessment tool 8357 tahun 2017.

Afterworkshop finished, residents jointly prepare disaster risk assessment documents through several Focus Group Discussion activities (FGD) which was done on 16 February 2024 and 20 March 2024. This document continues to be refined in a joint reviewonline and donereview returned by the sub-district office so that it is suitable for publication.

The results of the disaster risk study that has been carried out conclude that the Pondok Rajeg sub-district area has three priority threats, namely earthquakes, floods and tornadoes. The risk of earthquake disasters in this region is high. Temporary, risiko bencana banjir dan angin puting beliung bernilai rendah.

The results of the disaster risk study in Nanggewer Village stated that this area has three priority threats, including flooding, landslides and drought. The disaster risk value for each flood and landslide threat is moderate. Nilai risiko bencana kekeringan bernilai rendah.

Dhian Nurul Wardani, member of Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) Pondok Rajeg Village said that the disaster risk assessment process in its area was very useful, Moreover, many do not yet know that the area where they live is prone to earthquake disasters. Temporary, Siti Maemunah, The Nanggewer Subdistrict Secretary believes that the disaster risk assessment process provides a lot of science and knowledge packaged in a fun form.

Through this participatory disaster risk assessment process, Citizens can identify disaster threats and the vulnerabilities they have. Risk studies carried out in small areas such as sub-districts and villages can map risks in more detail and specifically. So that, warga dapat mengembangkan rencana aksi komunitas untuk penanggulangan bencana di daerahnya.

The post Two Subdistricts in Cibinong District Conduct Disaster Risk Assessment first appeared on Indonesian scale.

Cibinong area

Cibinong is the administrative center of Bogor Regency. This area was originally a merger of nine settlement groups by Governor General Baron Van Inhof in 1745. These nine groups are the core of Bogor society to this day. According to Government Regulation Number 6 Year 1982, Ibukota Kabupaten Bogor dipindahkan dan didirikan di Cibinong.

Since 1990, Government activities are centralized at the Government Office in Cibinong. Whereas, based on information, The Cibinong area was prepared as a replacement for the government capital of Jakarta in the 1980s. Geographically, Cibinong Regency is located in the northern lowlands of Bogor. The height of Cibinong ranges between 110 until 152 meters above sea level, dengan medan agak berbukit di sekitar bantaran sungai.

Therefore, It's not surprising that Cibinong has a temperature that is almost the same as the hot areas in Depok or South Jakarta. Hal ini berbeda dengan daerah lain di Bogor yang terkenal dengan iklimnya yang sejuk.

Although Cibinong is located in the lowlands and is crossed by several rivers, Cibinong is known as a flood-free district since ancient times. The name Cibinong itself hasorigin which not many people know. It is believed to originate from two syllables, “ci”, which means river or water flow and binong which means the name of the treeNudiflora Tetrameles. This tree is classified as a rare plant. Ciri khas pohon binong adalah akarnya yang menjalar di permukaan tanah dan bebatuan.

STRONG program

Then why program STRONG (Urban Communities for Resilient Action)  supported by USAID, Miyamoto, CRS, WVI, LPBI NOW then Indonesian SCALE targeting this area ? Of noteIndonesia’s Historical Earthquakes fromGeoscience Australia and quotingEncyclopedia of World Geographythat, Cibinong is one of the areas that experienced damage severe due to the earthquake that occurred last year 1834, because earthquakes are always repeated, preparedness must be built early, not just community preparedness, tetapi pemerintah dan lembaga usahanya harus menyiapkan diri.

Cibinong really needs attention because there are thousands of large and small scale industries in Cibinong, APKINDO data says more than 250 Large scale companies in Cibinong are in Cibinong. Meanwhile, from old map data (Old Map) issued by KITLV Cibinong is very important because the telephone network is along the main road, connecting Batavia and Bogor. (RN)

It's no longer a secret that working on YouTube can be a way of life. Because through YouTube we can make a lot of money in various ways. Disasterchannel.co really wants to develop a YouTube channel about disasters into one that can compete in the eyes of YouTube fans., while expanding exposure to disaster education to the wider community through this platform.

The ideals of disaster education can be consumed by most of the public, then Skala Indonesia and disasterchannel.co held a workshop with the theme "Disaster Education While Gaining Profits by Utilizing YouTube Channels" at the Swiss-Belresidences Hotel, Kalibata, Jakarta on Wednesday 21/06/2023.

This time we learned a lot from Luthfi Achmad who is the Founder & Mentor Suksesdariyoutube.com. Luthfi has a lot of experience in the field of YouTube channel development, one of which is being a Mentor on the Digitalent Scholarship by KOMINFO 2021 dan Mentor di Youtube Revolution Class by Effion Creator School 2022.

Wearing an all black outfit with a milk chocolate space background, Luthfi started the workshop with the question "What do you think is the main task of a content creator?”. Many participants answered with various interesting and funny answers, like creating content, upload video, edit video dan lainnya.

Then the young man graduated from Marketing and Commerce at University of Reunion, Paris, French This then explains that content creators on various social media platforms have two types, These include negative and positive traits. We have to choose whether to become a content creator that is positive or negative according to our reasons for becoming a content creator. Dalam ruang workshop semua ingin menjadi seorang content creator yang positif yang bisa memberikan manfaat bagi lingkungannya.

The question emerged again from Luthfi's mouth, he asked “why should we create content on the YouTube platform?”

This question is the main reason this workshop was conducted, because YouTube can give us benefits. This young man again explained that the income earned from YouTube was of greater value when compared to Tik-tok and Instagram or others. Because on YouTube, with a certain number of viewers and broadcast hours we can get paid. Meanwhile on other platforms that already have a lot of viewers, but you don't necessarily get money. Besides that, YouTube is one of the most widely used platforms and there are many endorsements and advertisements that can generate profit for us.

Luthfi shared several tips and tricks on how to make money from YouTube that we can apply, among them as follows:

• Using YouTube to gain profits we must start by determining the initial reason for becoming a content creator. And choose the nature of the content that is positive or negative, then choose educational content or just entertainment.
• Educational content can always be searched at any time (evergreen). Entertainment only rose for a short time but didn't last long. Content that is built from people's problems is the ultimate content.
• Content ideas can come from hobbies, job or skill. We have to know the target audience who sees the content, starting from the age aspect, gender, problem, keinginan dan bagaimana jika keinginan mereka tidak tercapai.
• Content consistency (theory 40 videos/ for educational content) so that YouTube recognizes the specifications of our channel, prepare yourself mentally, don't give up easily!
• Know the advantages and disadvantages of showing faces in content. To make your face famous, it will be easy to get endorsements and have a personal brand. Without a face it is more difficult to earn income (from Adsense only)
• Take note fair use and creative common and channel analysis, fix it with Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Meta Data on the title aspect, description, tag.

Finally, Luthfi advised that building a YouTube channel is quite a challenge for beginners. Because income from YouTube is not instant, everything requires a long process that is not easy at first. We must implement “Give first, receive later to work on YouTube” so that you don't give up easily and are consistent in developing it. (LS)
