The Disaster Resilient Sub-District Program (KENCANA), initiated by the Ministry of Home Affairs, serves as a strategic effort to accelerate the implementation of Minimum Service Standards (MSS) in disaster management at the local level. This initiative empowers sub-districts to tailor disaster response methods to their unique risks and capacities, thereby improving service quality and reducing response times. The Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas) highlighted four key priorities to strengthen regional resilience: enhancing the capacity of sub-district heads, optimising budgets, mobilising creative financing, and fostering stronger inter-agency collaboration.

BNPB and Bappenas: Strengthening the Role of Women and Persons with Disabilities in Disaster Risk Reduction

By adopting gender-sensitive and inclusive approaches, women and marginalised groups are expected to play meaningful roles across all phases of disaster management, from preparedness to post-disaster recovery.
