Abstract

This study aims to describe the process of communicating natural disasters through social media belonging to the Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Bantul Regency. The choice of research location was based on the high disaster risk index in Bantul Regency against natural disasters. Taking into account the vulnerability of locations to natural disasters encourages disaster authority agencies such as the BPBD to communicate disaster information to strengthen community resilience to disasters, one of which is through social media. This study used a qualitative method with a case study approach. The main data in this study were obtained from BPBD social media accounts such as Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. The results of the data obtained were analyzed interactively using the Nvivo 12 Plus software through the Crosstab Analysis feature. The theoretical basis for this research uses Haddow's disaster communication theory which divides four indicators, including: 1) Customer Focus; 2) Leadership Commitment; 3) Situational Awareness and 4) Media Partnership. This theory helps in knowing BPBD's communication process in distributing information in the form of disaster mitigation, preparation, response, and recovery. Through a comparison of the three social media accounts belonging to the BPBD, the results of the research can see the trend of disaster information being conveyed in the last two years.
