Scope of Work
Consultants (Researchers) on “Learning from implementation of emergency
responds in Jakarta and West Java Province”
I. Introduction
Indonesia’s law number 24 of
2007 concerning disaster management defined that emergency response means a
series of prompt actions during the disaster to deal with negative impacts,
such as rescuing and evacuating victims and material possessions, providing
basic necessities and protection, taking care of refugees, salvaging and
recovering infrastructure and facilities.
Clarity of responsibilities,
rights and obligations of all parties, including government, private sector and
community is the concrete form of understanding of disaster management in
emergency response. It must be determined before the event of disaster. People and communities are element that
directly exposed to disaster risks; they also determine the effectiveness of
emergency response. To that end, community should be the first and the most
important responders to disasters.
Kelurahan is the smallest governmental structure of
the governance system in some provinces in Indonesia. In respect to this Kelurahan status, the effectiveness of
disaster management should be initiated and developed by the community itself
from Kelurahan level. In practice,
numerous gaps occurs in emergency response; uneven aid distribution, lack off
cooperation among stakeholders, the difference of information or even the
neglect of rights of the disaster affected people.
To address these issues, Mercy Corps
Indonesia is intended to conduct a study to document the successes, challenges
and lessons learned from the existing emergency response experiences. The study
will be focused in Jakarta and West Java Province as the two have slightly
different vertical coordination in responding disaster. Mercy Corps Indonesia Drive C and API program
worked on both provinces on disaster risk reduction and emergency respond.
The study is expected to produce a
documentation of lesson learned and recommendation for disaster
management authority (BNPB, BPBD), village administration and another
stakeholder (including NGO and private) for better emergency respond in both
province and other provinces in Indonesia in the future.
