Abstract

Flooding is a natural phenomenon that often occurs in various countries including in Indonesia. Flooding is the process of rainwater overflow that occurs in large quantities with uncontrolled flow and crashing into an area or settlement due to not being able to accommodate large enough water discharge and causing overflowing of rivers, lakes, or ditches, so that the water inundates the surrounding land . In flood disasters in Indonesia there are major factors in the occurrence of flood disasters namely natural factors, and human factors. In improving flood mitigation must involve the participation of the community, especially the local community, without supporting community participation, the disaster mitigation program will not be realized, where community participation includes environmental cleanliness and illegal logging ban which is one of the flood mitigation efforts, where this is very important in carrying out activities prior to the flood disaster. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
