Abstract

Abstract
Bengkulu is located at above the meeting of Indo-Australian and Eurasian plates so it is very vulnerable to disasters. History records that Bengkulu once four times hit by the tsunami in 1797, 1833, 1861 and 2007. According to the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) there are 205 points of tsunami-prone areas, one of them is Pondok Besi Village in Teluk Segara District, Bengkulu City. This village is one of the villages that formed a village-based disaster alert group (Sibad). The strategy undertaken to reduce disaster risk is through strengthening the family's social capital, therefore the authors are interested in conducting research and analyzing "Disaster Mitigation Through Strengthening Family Social Capital in Pondok Besi Village, Bengkulu City”. The research method was a qualitative research with a case study approach. The results showed that disaster mitigation through strengthening family social capital was carried out through two things, first, improving the quality and quantity of family social interaction and trust through the use of communication technology, secondly increasing preparedness for disasters through strengthening family cooperation. From the results of the study it can be seen that disaster mitigation through strengthening family social capital has not run optimally, that because research informants have different interpretations of disaster mitigation, disaster mitigation is sometimes considered as an expecting disaster activity. This meaning influences the behavior of research informants on several activities that related to disaster mitigation.

 

Bengkulu berada di atas pertemuan lempeng Indo-Australia dan Eurasia sehingga sangat rawan terhadap bencana. Sejarah mencatat Bengkulu pernah empat kali diterjang tsunami masing-masing pada tahun 1797, 1833, 1861 dan 2007. Menurut Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Bencana (BNPB) terdapat 205 titik daerah rawan terjadi bencana tsunami, salah satunya adalah kelurahan Pondok Besi di Kecamatan Teluk Segara, Kota Bengkulu. Kelurahan ini merupakan salah satu kelurahan yang membentuk kelompok siaga bencana berbasis desa (Sibad). Startegi yang dilakukan guna mengurangi resiko bencana adalah memalui penguatan modal sosial keluarga, oleh karena itu penulis tertarik melakukan penelitian dan menganalisis tentang “Mitigasi Bencana Melalui Penguatan Modal Sosial Keluarga Di Kelurahan Pondok Besi Kota Bengkulu. Metode penelitian yang dipilih adalah penelitian kulitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa mitigasi bencana melalui penguatan modal sosial keluarga dilakukan melalui dua hal yaitu pertama, peningkatan kualitas dan kuantitas interaksi sosial keluarga dan kepercayaan melalui pemanfaatan teknologi komunikasi, kedua peningkatan kesiaptanggapan terhadap bencana melalui penguatan kerjasama keluarga. Dari hasil penelitian terlihat bahwa mitigasi bencana melalui penguatan modal sosial keluarga belum berjalan maksimal, hal ini terjadi karena informan penelitian mempunyai interpretasi yang berbeda terhadap mitigasi bencana, mitigasi bencana terkadang dianggap sebagai aktivitas mengharap datangnya bencana. Makna inilah yang mempengaruhi perilaku informan penelitian terhadap beberapa aktivitas terkait mitigasi bencana.
