Kursus profesional ini merupakan sebahagian daripada komitmen DPPC (MJIIT-UTM) terhadap agenda nasional dalam usaha memperkasakan kapasiti pelbagai penggubal polisi, perancang bandar, pihak pemegang taruh tempatan dan komuniti terdedah bagi mengelakkan berlakunya risiko bencana pada masa hadapan. Tragedi Taufan Rai yang membadai kawasan bandar-bandar utama pada Disember 2021 y7ang menyaksikan taburan hujan yang ekstrim dan banjir berskala besar dengan kerugian ekonomi di kawasan sekitar Lembah Klang. 

“Tidak mengira latar belakang setiap daripada kita perlu mengangkat komitmen kerajaan Malaysia terhadap agenda global dan aspirasi sejagat seperti mana termaktub pada Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 (SFDRR 2030) terutamanya dalam mengurangkan risiko bencana, mengelakkan risiko mendatang dan memperkasakan daya tahan di Malaysia” – Dr Khamarrul Azahari Razak, Pengarah DPPC MJIIT-UTM

DPPC MJIIT-UTM dengan kerjasama dengan kerjasama Institut Sultan Iskandar UTM (ISI-UTM), Institut Geologi Malaysia (IGM), Persatuan Pengurusan Bencana Kebangsaan (NADIM) dan Persatuan Bencana Geologi dan Daya Tahan Komuniti (NGDRC) dan Enforcement, Leadership and Management University (ELMU) telah merekabentuk dan membangunkan modul latihan khusus kepada Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) dan pelbagai pihak pemegang taruh dalam pembangunan dan penilaian bandar berdaya tahan pada tahun 2024. Enam (6) modul kursus pembelajaran dan pengajaran telah dikendalikan oleh penceramah dan jurulatih profesional semasa sesi kursus tersebut.

Modul 1: Agenda Global dan Aspirasi Nasional Terhadap Pengurangan Risiko Bencana dan Daya Tahan 2030

Kursus ini seiring dengan Matlamat 4: Kuala Lumpur Bandar Raya Pintar Iklim dan Rendah Karbon yang dirangka di dalam Pelan Struktur Kuala Lumpur 2024. Matlamat ini memberi fokus kepada pengurusan, perancangan dan pembangunan. Ia merangkumi langkah-langkah adaptasi dan mitigasi terhadap kesan bencana alam dan perubahan iklim serta kecekapan dalam pengurangan pelepasan karbon dan pengurusan sumber bandar. Salah satu daripada tindakan utama Matlamat 4 adalah penghasilan Pelan Tindakan bagi Mitigasi dan Adaptasi ke Arah Daya Tahan Terhadap Perubahan Iklim dan Pelan Pengurusan Risiko Bencana

Modul 2: Pembangunan Bandar dan Komuniti Berdaya Tahan: Prinsip, Konsep Model, Penanda Aras dan Strategi

YBhg. Dato’ Zakaria Mohamad, pengerusi Persatuan Bencana Geologi dan Daya Tahan Komuniti (NGDRC) bersama Dr Khamarrul Azahari Razak mengendalikan Modul 3: Pemetaan Bahaya Baru Muncul, Risiko Sistemik dan Bencana Berganda. Modul 3 turut melibatkan aktiviti berkumpulan Disaster Imagination Games (DIG) berdasarkan senario terburuk bencana berasaskan empangan, taufan, air, sedimen di kawasan perbandaran, bandar warisan dunia dan geopark.

“Penilaian bandar berdaya tahan membantu penyelidik memahami risiko bencana berdasarkan penanda aras senario terburuk yang pernah berlaku di Malaysia dan luar negara. Selain itu, saya juga mengetahui jenis bencana berganda disebabkan aliran puing dan impaknya”. – Peserta Kursus Asas Penilaian Bandar Berdaya Tahan 2024

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY FOR DISASTER RISK REDUCTION AND RESILIENCE (DR3) WEEK

The Science and Technology for Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience (STDR3) week is hosted by the Disaster Preparedness and Prevention Center (DPPC), Malaysia-Japan International Institute of Technology (MJIIT), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and Malaysia-Japan Linkage Office, Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) with the support of various strategic partners at federal, state and local level, and private sector as well as NGOs.

This high-impact program focused on the implementation of science and technology in disaster risk reduction (DRR), with an emphasis on stakeholders, local agencies, decision-makers, and vulnerable groups exposed to various hazards and disasters. In addition, various technical methods and learning modules will be discussed to identify geological hazards and take risk reduction measures and build resilience for vulnerable groups. The STDR3 Week 2024 brought together experts, scientists, government officials, and international organisations to share insights, knowledge, and technological advancements aimed at enhancing disaster preparedness and resilience.

The STDR3 Week 2024 comprises of several primary agenda to accelerate the global agenda particularly the UNDRR Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) 2015-2030, 2030 Global Agenda for Sustainable Development, Paris Agreement, regional agenda and national aspiration on disaster risk, and resilience strategies, as follows:-

  1. Community-Led Disaster Risk Reduction (CLDRR)
  2. School Resilience and Disaster Education (SRDE)
  3. International Workshop and Field Practices on Disaster Risk Management (IDRM)

This multi-sectoral platform provides a new insight into locally-led and nationally-supported landslide disaster risk reduction strategy, by empowering an impact-based early warning system for debris flow and landslides, integrating with the innovated LTIK approach and strengthening local champions in the vulnerable regions. Remarkably, we demonstrate regional benchmarking, national commitment, and local wisdom to reduce the number of human- and economic losses through an impact-based early warning system, led by vulnerable community and powered by humanizing technology for building societal resilience
