Disaster Preparedness Day April 26

The Importance of Building a Culture

Every April 26, Indonesia commemorates Disaster Preparedness Day, a national initiative to raise public awareness about disaster risks. Launched by BNPB in 2017, the day serves as a reminder that disaster preparedness starts with individuals and communities.

Theme 2025: Ready to Be Safe

The 2025 theme, “Ready to Be Safe,” emphasizes the importance of independent evacuation and rapid response during emergencies. Across the country, people are encouraged to participate in evacuation drills, disaster education, and online campaigns.

Community Involvement in Risk Mitigation

Disaster preparedness is not just the government’s responsibility. Citizens must also understand the risks in their area, plan evacuation routes, and participate in emergency response training.

A Continuous Effort for a Safer Future

With over 2,300 disasters occurring annually, Indonesia is one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world. Sustained public engagement is key to minimizing loss and improving community resilience.
