ABSTRACT

Indonesia is a country with high disaster vulnerability, including frequent landslides in various regions. One of the mitigation approaches being developed is the use of vetiver grass as a nature-based solution to strengthen soil stability. However, the success of implementing such mitigation programs depends not only on the technical effectiveness of the methods used but also on the ability of various actors to build collaboration in their execution. This study aims to analyze collaborative governance practices in the implementation of the vetiver planting program as a landslide mitigation effort in Banyumas Regency. This research uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. Research informants involve actors involved in the program, including the Banyumas Regency Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), the Serayu Opak Progo Watershed Management Office (BPDAS), village governments, the community, and volunteer organizations. The results show that the implementation of the vetiver planting program involves the collaboration of various actors who play roles in the process of planning, implementation, and evaluation of activities. BPBD acts as a facilitator in building coordination between institutions, while the community and volunteer organizations contribute to the implementation of activities in the field. The findings of this study indicate that a collaborative governance approach can strengthen collective capacity in the implementation of nature-based solution disaster mitigation at the local level.
