Abstract

The number of disaster incidents in Indonesia causes disaster risk reduction efforts in Indonesia, especially young people, to need to be optimally increased. The extent of efforts to improve the preparedness of the younger generation cannot be known without going through the initial identification of disaster preparedness based on the youth profile. This study aims to describe and identify the preparedness profile of young people based on disaster preparedness measurement instruments. The method used in this study is descriptive by presenting, describing, and analyzing further data to find new conclusions and discoveries by comparing several data. Data collection was carried out by conducting a survey of 908 students from 12 schools affected by the eruption of Mount Merapi. The indicators measured in this study are spatial knowledge of disaster risk, spatial analysis of disaster risk and response, geographical perception of risk and emergency measures, and planning of emergency resource spatial. The results were then classified based on gender profile, education level, and school location. The profile measurement results showed that male students had a higher level of preparedness than female students. In terms of education level, senior high school students had a higher level of disaster preparedness in the resilient category than junior high school students. Finally, based on the radius of the eruption center, students who attend school within a radius of 10-20 km have a higher level of resilience in the resilient category compared to students who live within a radius of more than 20 km. In addition, there is a connection between preparedness and spatial thinking skills, which play a role in improving disaster mitigation and response capabilities.
