“…The results of the current study also show that the KM implementation strategy also needs to be focused on building commitment from local leaders in implementing KM, and increasing effort and innovation for knowledge management services with wider support and collaboration. This is also in line with earlier studies which found that one of the most important organisational limitations was the reluctance of policymakers to appreciate the importance of disaster and pandemic mitigation [ [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] ]. Additionally, organisational memory, a crucial component of the cognitive aspect of learning in disasters for regional self-governance units, has not been fully developed.…”

“…However, the challenge of adapting health to disaster situations in Indonesia, according to the consultation meeting, is the lack of attention to vulnerable groups who require special attention/treatment, particularly for health-related needs. This challenge needs serious attention considering the rise in climate-related disasters in Indonesia, which have had adverse health consequences, and the urgent need for adaptation methods to lower the risks and vulnerabilities of the most vulnerable groups [61].…”

In recent years, Indonesia has experienced rapid increases in severe climate-related disasters have dramatically impacted populations unevenly; the poor and the vulnerable populations are most affected, and adaptive measures are urgently needed to protect and mitigate the impact on their health. However, very little is known about the existing measures addressing climate-related disasters and health impacts among vulnerable groups. WHO established a Health Emergency and Disaster Risk Management framework to urge governments and relevant actors to systematically collect evidence to develop science-based feasible adaptive strategies for priority groups. This study used scoping review methods to identify the action areas of Health-EDRM in policy documents in Indonesia, its content, and any potential gaps that require further study. The results from the documents’ review were then reported and discussed at a national stakeholder consultation meeting. This study has identified several achievements, lessons learned, and challenges from strategies and policies for health adaptation in facing climate-related disasters in Indonesia. This study also proposed strategies and recommendations to support mobilizing and accelerating health adaptation actions towards climate-related disasters in Indonesia.

“…Disaster risk is affected by climate change in two ways, namely through increased weather and climate hazards, and through increased community vulnerability to natural hazards, particularly through food and water availability, environmental degradation, and changes in livelihoods [20]. Disaster risks that can be caused by climate change include death, injury, illness, soul threatened, displacement, damage or loss of property, loss of sense of security, and community activities disruption [21] In Indonesia, more than 500 disasters, mostly hydro-meteorological or climate-related disasters happened between 1909 and 2020 [22]. Floods and landslides are the most frequent disasters that happened during that period.…”

The most frequent disasters that occur due to climate change are hydro-meteorological disasters that have an impact on human life. Structural and non-structural mitigation efforts have been carried out by the government and stakeholders. However, considering that human behavior also affects the occurrence of climate change, non-structural mitigation efforts need to receive special attention. On the other hand, the Indonesian people have local wisdom related to disaster mitigation, but currently, it has not been fully utilized. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to provide information and analyze some Indonesian local wisdom that can be utilized in disaster risk mitigation. The method used is a literature review. Based on the review, there are some local wisdom related to forest conservation, spring conservation, and soil and water conservation. Local wisdom in forest conservation as conducted in Aceh is using traditional law to manage their coastal forest, and in Bali and North Maluku by constructing forests as sacred places. Spring conservation using local wisdom can be found in Samigaluh, Kendal, and Sungai Langka, commonly by giving offerings, giving thanks, cooperation, and trusting spring as a sacred place that must be protected and respected. Local wisdom to conserve soil and water is applied in Aek Latong and Lerep villages by planting long-rooted plants on slopes to prevent landslides. The synergy of government efforts and the preservation of local wisdom is a good strategy for disaster mitigation.
