Assistance in the Preparation of the Cikole Village Disaster Risk Reduction Handbook

West Java Province is one of the provinces in Indonesia that is prone to earthquakes. There are three faults that stretch across West Java, namely the Cimandiri Fault, the Lembang Fault, and the Baribis Fault. The Lembang Fault is a geological phenomenon located in the north of the Bandung Basin, stretching from the eastern part of Mount Manglayang to the western part of Parongpong-Csarua through the city of Lembang, for 22 km. The morphology along the Lembang Fault includes active tectonics which can cause large earthquakes in the surrounding area. Among them is Cikole Village, Lembang District. Initial search results show that the people of Cikole Village still have low-disaster risk reduction efforts. Increasing preparedness is one of the important elements of proactive disaster risk reduction activities before a disaster occurs. The priority problem that needs to be addressed through mentoring activities is to increase community preparedness through the preparation of guidelines in the form of a disaster risk reduction handbook. The method used in this activity is community involvement through focus group discussion (FGD). The developed pocketbook measures 7.4 x 10.5 cm and is designed with the dominant color orange. Because orange color denotes alert or ready. The contents of the book include disaster threats in Cikole Village and a guide to disaster preparedness for earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

Redesign of Taman Lansia Bandung as a Therapeutic Garden

Elderly group needs to be paid attention to while redesigning an inclusive city by improving their quality of life to achieve successful aging. The existence of elderlyfriendly urban spaces is imperative in promoting mental health and well-being in the scarcity of open spaces in dense urban environments. These spaces can help them to actively maintain health, physical and cognitive functions, and involve with the social environment. Taman Lansia Bandung is one of the thematic parks whose initial purpose was to become an elderly-oriented open space. However, Taman Lansia Bandung felt to be less and less accommodating to the elderly’s comfort and ironically provides more attractions for younger visitors to the park. This paper attempts to propose a new design for Taman Lansia with a systematic design approach. A site analysis was conducted to examine the spatial issues such as natural, man-made, physical, and perceptual attributes to develop the contextual design idea. A set of design principles and criteria are generated from a systematic literature review of case studies, related research, and technical standards on accessible design for the elderly and disabled. The result of site analysis and design principles are then formulated into a design vision of the park. A 3D-model was created to simulate the design idea and then compare it with the existing conditions with the photo-match technique. The result is a therapeutic garden that improves the elderly’s psychological comfort with a more ergonomic design, closeness to nature, and a multisensory impulse experience.

Analisis Kualitas Sub DAS Citarum Hulu

Daerah Aliran Sungai (DAS) Citarum Hulu memegang peranan penting dalam proses pembangunan. Prioritas masalah yang dihadapi adalah konflik kepentingan antara upaya pelestarian lingkungan sebagai fungsi resapan, dan upaya memaksimalkan pemanfaatan lahan terbangun dimana Kawasan Metropolitan Bandung berada di atasnya. Seiring dengan dinamika perkembangan lahan terbangun menyebabkan penurunan muka air tanah, banjir/genangan air permukaan pada musim hujan, dan sungai kering pada musim kemarau. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi kualitas Sub DAS Citarum Hulu berdasarkan analisis tingkat fluktuasi aliran permukaan dan sensitivitas erosi tanah. Pengetahuan tentang kualitas DAS dapat digunakan sebagai bahan evaluasi pembangunan dan penggunaan lahan di Sub DAS Citarum Hulu. Metode analisis yang dilakukan mencakup Analisa fluktuasi debit aliran dan tingkat erosi tanah menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif, kemudian hasil dari kedua analisa tersebut menjadi dasar dalam menentukan tipologi kualitas sub-DAS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kualitas sub DAS Citarum Hulu terbagi menjadi tiga tipologi yaitu sub DAS Kopo, Ciwidey, Cibeureum, dan Nanjung Hilir dengan tipologi kualitas rendah. Lima sub DAS dengan tipologi kualitas tinggi, yaitu Citarum, Cikeruh, Cicadas, Cimahi dan Dayeuhkolot Hilir. Sub DAS lainnya memiliki kualitas yang relatif sedang. Intensitas penggunaan lahan di sub DAS Citarum Hulu harus menerapkan prinsip-prinsip konservasi, ramah lingkungan, dan berkelanjutan agar tercapai perbaikan kualitas sub-DAS menjadi tipologi tinggi serta kualitas sub DAS dapat terjaga hingga puluhan tahun yang akan datang.</jats:p

Integrative Solutions for the Acceleration of Open Defecation Free (ODF) in Bandung City

Abstract One of the goals in the SDGs that a region must achieve is 100% sanitation access. Sanitation is considered to have a significant impact on the quality of public health, both in rural and urban areas. The city of Bandung as a city with a high-density level has a big challenge in resolving sanitation matters. Acceleration efforts are needed to improve sanitation access in the city of Bandung which is still low so that it can realize open defecation free (ODF) for every urban village in the city of Bandung. This paper aims to provide a logical framework in the form of efforts that can be made to increase ODF in the city of Bandung. By collecting secondary data, interviews and FGDs as well as the highest and best use approach, the results show that the most important thing is to encourage the community to realize the need for a septic tank through community based total sanitation triggering (STBM) activities, connecting household wastewater channels to PDAM Sewerage, construction of small and large-scale communal septic tanks / IPAL and construction of “Gendong” pipelines, especially those in riverbank areas.</jats:p
