Abstract

The Disaster Resilient Village was formed to create a village community that is independent of the risk of disasters that may occur in Karo Regency. Destana in Sukatendel and Perbaji have been formed by the Disaster Management Agency for more than 2 years. It is hoped that the diffusion of disaster innovation carried out by BPBD through the Disaster Risk Reduction Forum will be able to create an independent Destana. The aim of this research is to determine the communication barriers experienced by FPRB in its success in creating a disaster resilient society. This research uses a qualitative approach to obtain data, namely through in-depth interviews with FPRB and also Destana facilitators. The research results show that there are funding, humanitarian atmosphere, unwillingness to change and egocentric nature which then influence the diffusion of disaster innovation in the two regions mentioned above.
