Infrastructure design and multi disasters-based land use as the main key to Palu resilience city

Abstract

Indonesia is located at the meeting point of three tectonic plates, making it at-risk to geological disasters such as volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. Earthquake disaster can cause a variety of crucial dangers, such as earthquakes, landslides, liquefaction, tsunamis, and other natural disasters, as one took place in Palu City in 2018. This study aims to identify key parameters that could increase Palu resilience in the face of calamity in the future. This study start with a literature review to determine the concept, parameters, and variables of resilience Palu City against disasters. These parameters and variables were then compared to the current condition. The findings of the literature review generated four main parameters for disaster-resilience cities: disaster risk reduction (improvement of infrastructure design and multi disasters-based land use planning), community recovery, efficient program implementation, and monitoring-evaluation. Furthermore, the comparison of these four parameters to reconstruction activities reveals that Palu city’s post-disaster reconstruction has not fully resulted in efforts to achieve the concept of a disaster-resilience city. This is because post-disaster management efforts in Indonesia are in accordance with applicable regulations, emphasizing recovery rather than mitigation in the following catastrophic events.

Evaluation Of Zoning Regulations in Coastal Areas for Disaster Risk Reduction of Climate Change

“…This approach emphasizes efforts to create a disasterresilient city through a reconstruction process that takes into consideration multi-disaster-based land use and improving infrastructure design to reduce disaster risk. This concept was later named with Resilience City with Build Back Better (RC-BBB) [20] In this model, multi-disaster-based land use planning is considered joined by establishing a zoning plan based on the characteristics of coastal zones, followed by recommendations for preparing provisions for implementing disaster-resistant buildings. Zoning for Land use planning is the most important method of land use regulation carried out by local governments [21].…”

“…The characteristics of disasters and existing land use in these two villages can be seen in detail in table 1. Approach Method Evaluation in this article is defined as an action taken to determine the level of conformity of the important points of zoning regulations in the Regency Regional Spatial Plan to standard-standard the size desired in the criteria for disaster resilient cities which are based on multi-disaster-based land use criteria and improving the structural design of infrastructure [24]. This evaluation is part of the planning process cycle, the results of which can be used for enter revision of land use and regulations as well as other decision-making considerations [25].…”
