Abstract

Sumatera Barat is located in the earthquake-prone area. In 2009 the West Sumatera earthquake (7.9 on the Ritcher scale) caused 1,117 people dead, 2 were missing, 1,214 were seriously injured and 1,688 were slightly injured. The disaster also caused damage to community homes, with details of 114,797 heavily damaged, 67,198 moderately damaged and 67,838 slightly damaged. This earthquake was caused by fault movement passing through the coastal area of West Sumatra namely Indo-Australian fault. Based on the disaster vulnerability index, the areas along the coast of West Sumatra (Pesisir Selatan, Padang, Padang Pariaman, Agam and Pasaman Barat ), have high levels of disaster vulnerability. Padang Pariaman regency is one of the districts which has a coastal area with a coastline along the 60.5 km stretching up to the cluster of Bukit Barisan. The condition of the Padang Pariaman district is potentially affected by the tsunami, as some of the cities with populations and public facilities are located near the coast. This condition is very apprehensive and makes this city need more shelter and tsunami evacuation path. Until now, the Government of Padang Pariaman district and supported by the provincial government of West Sumatra as well as the private sector (NGO) has made various mitigation and earthquake mitigation efforts such as mitigation training. However, the training has not reached all the people, especially elementary school students who do not have basic knowledge of earthquake and tsunami and have not been able to independently evacuate and mitigate. Until now, the Government of Padang Pariaman district and supported by the provincial government of West Sumatra as well as the private sector (NGO) has made various mitigation and earthquake mitigation efforts such as mitigation training. However, the training has not reached all the people, especially elementary school students who do not have basic knowledge of earthquake and tsunami and have not been able to independently evacuate and mitigate. This mitigation training is expected to optimize disaster prevention activities to achieve the objectives of Disaster Preparedness School (SSB). Disaster Preparedness School (SSB) is an effort to build school preparedness for disaster in order to awaken the awareness of all elements in education both individually and collectively in school and school environment before, during and after a disaster. Targets of training activities on earthquake and tsunami mitigation of the Kyoto International Disaster Prevention School (KIDS) method at elementary schools in coastal areas of Padang Pariaman District by providing basic understanding to elementary school students about earthquake and tsunami, and adequate socialization to improve the ability of elementary school students, especially on the theory of fast and simple mitigation theory to earthquake and tsunami that can be understood and implemented later and disseminate simple earthquake and tsunami mitigation pamphlets to elementary school students and target schools as a reference for future evacuation activities
