Disaster Risk Reduction Education for Students with Diverse Needs
Main Article Content
Abstract
Disaster risk reduction education plays an important role in increasing disaster awareness and preparedness. To instill awareness and a culture of disaster preparedness, disaster education needs to be taught from an early age, as part of the efforts to promote mental health education and inclusive education for students with diverse needs. The purpose of this study is to analyse the integration strategy of disaster risk reduction education into the primary school curriculum for students with diverse needs. This research used a qualitative study approach. This study was conducted in the Special Region of Yogyakarta Province. Data were obtained through three focus group discussion (FGD) sessions with primary School Teachers and Disaster Stakeholders. The data were analysed by transcribing, extracting important statements, formulating meaning and grouping into themes. The results showed that disaster risk reduction education in primary schools is integrated through intracurricular, co-curricular and extracurricular activities. The government needs to develop standard guidelines for the integration of DRR education into the curriculum so that it can be harmonised in its implementation in primary schools for students with diverse needs. Disaster risk reduction education in schools requires the cooperation of various stakeholders, both internal and external parties, for the benefits for inclusive education for students with diverse needs.
