Natural disaster management programs aim to reduce risks, protect the community,
and minimize the impact of natural disasters in the area. The purpose of this research is
to describe and analyze the effectiveness of sustainable natural disaster management
programs in the North Kalimantan Province. The effectiveness of this program is very
important for achieving the goals that have been previously set.. A qualitative approach
was used in this study. Data collection techniques were conducted through in-depth
interviews with key informants who played a role in natural disaster management
programs, observation of stakeholder activities, and documentation studies. The
research data sources consist of primary and secondary data. Data analysis techniques
included data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions.
Results show that North Kalimantan Province’s natural disaster management program
has been running effectively on the dimensions of achieving goals, where the budget
allocated follows the existing realization. As for integration in program implementation,
it is not well established because of the lack of rehearsals for disaster management as
well as adaptation to implementation, which is difficult due to topographical conditions
that are still difficult to reach.
