Earthquakes are a growing threat to Indonesia, with limited resources for risk mitigation. The current reliance on government relief is unsustainable. Despite Law No. 24/2007 on Disaster Management, inclusive disaster risk financing schemes have yet to be established. This study aims to provide evidence for disaster risk financing strategies in Indonesia, focusing on geological disasters in active fault areas with high population density. Aligned with the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) Priority 2, this study seeks to address the financial impact of disasters on governments and societies. By analyzing responses to risk financing following the November 21, 2022 earthquake in Cianjur Regency, this study examines emotional reactions, risk perceptions, and willingness to participate in risk insurance. The findings highlight low participation in insurance programs due to limited insurance literacy and low enrollment in micro earthquake insurance. Material losses from...
Developing sustainable arrangements for “proactive” disaster risk financing in Java, Indonesia
International Journal of Disaster Resilience in the Built Environment
Purpose Recent years saw a paradigm shift from ex post (reactive) to ex ante (proactive) approaches (e.g. insurance) to disaster risk financing for building resilience of communities in developing countries. To facilitate adoption, the approaches should be adapted so that they can be technically feasible and culturally desirable to the local context. This paper aims to report an exploratory study to elaborate the existing arrangements to deal with the impacts of disaster and the potential to shift to a more proactive disaster risk financing in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach A series of stakeholder engagement activities in Semarang and Solo, Indonesia was conducted to ascertain the existing arrangements for disaster risk financing at local government level, the challenges/barriers to the adoption of insurance, education and policies to facilitate the transformation from reactive to proactive process. Thematic analysis was applied to transcribed conversations during interviews...
Promoting Disaster Risk Financing in Asia and the Pacific
2017
Key points • The economies in Asia and the Pacific are exposed to disaster risks, which can cause fatalities as well as economic losses. One strategy to mitigate the economic losses and strengthen financial resilience to disasters is developing disaster risk financing. • There are two policy options in implementing disaster risk financing: public sector and private sector disaster risk financing tools. Each option has challenges that need to be addressed for them to be effectively implemented. • Two possible strategies could be pursued for overcoming the implementation challenges of disaster risk financing: the establishment of institutional arrangements for a combined public– private response to disaster risk financing and the development of a state-sponsored disaster insurance scheme.

Natural Disaster Insurance Policy in Indonesia: Proposing an Institutional Design
2021
Natural disasters are a significant phenomenon that often take place in Indonesia. Indonesia's geographic position gives it a high risk of natural disasters. In 2018, the government of Indonesia created a natural disaster insurance policy as an effort to finance disaster mitigation without depending on the state budget. Natural disaster insurance is intended to divert risk, which was initially entirely borne by the government, to insurance companies or other stakeholders. The issue of governance or institutional management of insurance funds is essential, as is considering accountability and transparency. In the institutional context, the interests of the stakeholders, namely the government, the community, and insurance companies, need to be considered. The purpose of this study is to initiate an institutional design of natural disaster insurance fund management in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews and a review of the existing literature. The results showed that both the private sector and the government can manage natural disaster insurance funds. By considering accountability and transparency, as well as the significant risk of natural disasters, it was determined that the government can work with private insurance companies, both in the form of consortia and associations, to manage natural disaster insurance funds.
Strategy and Formulation of Disaster Management Policies in Indonesia
International Journal of Progressive Sciences and Technologies
The purpose of this study is to formulate the concept of strategy and formulation of disaster management policies in Indonesia, especially faced with the challenge of increasing trends in natural and non-natural disasters and the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with an emphasis on literature studies to examine several methods and experiences (lessons learned) in various implementations of disaster management policies in Indonesia. The result of the research is the need for strategies and policy formulation in each phase of a disaster (pre-disaster, emergency response, post-disaster) from various aspects of the disaster management system, namely legislation, planning, institutions, and funding. The proposed disaster management strategy and policy formulation refers to the mandate of the 1945 Constitution, namely (1) to protect the entire Indonesian nation and the entire homeland of Indonesia (reformulating adequate funding policies for each stage of disaster management); (2) promoting public welfare (reforming post-disaster policies with the principle of build back better, safer and sustainable); (3) educating the nation's life (reformulating the policy of mainstreaming or mainstreaming disaster risk reduction to all levels of society, through communication, education, and information as well as dedication); (4) participate in implementing world order based on freedom, eternal peace, and social justice (reformulating policies for cooperation, both domestically and internationally for disasters).
Disaster Risk Financing and Insurance: How Far Have We Known?
Bina Ekonomi
Natural catastrophes have resulted in massive losses for Indonesia. The government lacks the capacity to pay all damages caused by the disasters. The purpose of this research is to map the literature on catastrophe risk finance and insurance, particularly in terms of financial instruments that can be deployed. The scoping review approach was used in this study to locate and map relevant material. The findings of this study revealed that there are still significant research gaps on the issue of catastrophe risk finance and insurance, beginning with the research aim, financial instruments mentioned, and research methodologies and procedures applied. This study is planned to serve as the foundation for future research on the subject of catastrophe insurance in developing nations.
Is the Indonesian disaster response budget correlated with disaster risk?
Jàmbá: Journal of Disaster Risk Studies
This study investigates the correlation between disaster budget, index of disaster risks and the population of 23 districts in the Aceh province, northern Indonesia. It also explores how the budget for disasters is proposed and prepared by Indonesian local governments. A descriptive quantitative approach is used to examine this relationship. Data were collected from the budgets of local governments (Badan Penanggulangan Bencana Daerah [BPBD] or local disaster management agency) and the disaster risk index. In addition, surveys were undertaken in which the respondents were the key officers in the BPBDs who are responsible for the budget and programmes to obtain detailed information about how the local government prepares their budget for disaster. By employing the Pearson’s chi-square test and the Pearson correlation test, this study revealed no significant statistical relationship between the disaster budget and the level of disaster risks among districts or cities in the Aceh provi...
TOWARDS DISASTER RESILIENCE STATE: POLICY ANALYSIS ON DISASTER RISK REDUCTION IN INDONESIA
Proceedings from the Virtual International Conference “New Research in International Development, Human Rights, and International Relations at A Time of Disruption”, 2020
Understanding the increasing trend of disasters occurrence, exposure to the economy, and the people is getting more massive. The world has committed to finding more effective ways in reducing human, economic, and material losses from disasters. Center for Research and Epidemiology of Disasters has noted Indonesia as the state with the highest number of deaths in 2018 with 4,535 people died, meanwhile, Indonesia Disaster Management Agency recorded that there is an increasing trend of disaster occurrence in Indonesia. Through disaster risk reduction, though it can interchangeably with disaster risk management, the government of Indonesia would like to engage with the consequences of its geological and climatological location. This paper would like to mitigate how the government of Indonesia responds towards an ever-happened and-growing disaster through public policy analysis. Through documentary research, this paper studies the development of Indonesia's public policy on Disaster Risk Reduction by focusing on the regulations issued by the Indonesia government to provide the relation between resilience, public policy, and disaster risk reduction in Indonesia. This paper concluded that (1) the development of DRR in Indonesia is engaging to the increasing trend of disaster occurrence frequency and its diversity of disaster type; (2) the development also shows that Indonesia is participating in the development of world's DRR; (3) in regards to disaster resilience, the development of the DRR in Indonesia has not shown consistent progress.
Disaster risk index on disaster management budgeting: Indonesia’s national data set
Jàmbá: Journal of Disaster Risk Studies
This study analysed Indonesian local government budgeting model based on the Disaster Risk Index (DRI). This study used a sample of local governments in Indonesia consisting of provincial, regency and municipality levels, especially for 2015–2019 data with a final sample of 2609 observations. The results of the analysis and testing showed that most of the Indonesian local governments fall into the high category in the DRI. The DRI has a positive effect on the Disaster Response Emergency Fund (DREF). The results were robust to the differences in DRI measurements, both using scores and DRI categories. This study also found that the DRI has been used as the basis for budgeting regional expenditures. The budget was allocated in disaster-related public procurements such as public service, housing, public facilities and public health. The budgeting for the implementation of economic and social functions was not influenced by the DRI. Instead, the DRI was found to have a negative effect on...
