Abstract

Natural disasters in Indonesia are increasing due to climate change and impacts on the loss of housing and livelihood for the victims. For future disaster risk reduction, the Governments used RISHA housing technology for resettlement. Lack of consideration of post-disaster livelihood in the resettlement programs has resulted in the emergence of the housing adjustment phenomenon. Initial surveys showed that adjustments were done using materials other than RISHA components, though there were prohibitions to make physical changes to housing. Evaluation of resident’s satisfaction with RISHA housing in Indonesia has not been carried out empirically, so it might fail to see the real needs of the community. This study aims to assess the level of satisfaction with RISHA housing and identify their housing adjustment as strategies for improving livelihood. A questionnaire survey of 232 respondents resulted in a satisfaction level of 69.70%(moderate), while through observation and in-depth interviews, it concluded that housing adjustment is a strategy to overcome the housing deficit and rebuild livelihood. These findings provide input for post-disaster housing policies, where adjustments to RISHA housing should not be seen as negative things, but instead require assistance and support from the government as efforts to restore the community's livelihood after resettlement.
