Titik added, “The Jitupasna result which is done by the ERCB team is also useful to help the government, other private sectors and also NGO who would like to do accompaniment in the village during the rehabilitation and reconstruction phase.” “It’s expected to be able to help the Districts Government and other private sectors in doing verification on the damage impacts and calculating the post disaster needs. When for example, we are only able to implement measures required in 3 villages, thus other organizations may help the other villages by referring to the result of ERCB’s Jitupasna,” said Titik. The Jitupasna is targeted to be organized in 15 villages that become the ERCB intervention locations. In Sigi District, there are 7 villages (Boladangko, Bolapapu, Tangkulawi, Omu, Tuva, and Lewara), in Donggala District, there are 5 villages (Loli Pesua, Loli Saluran, Lampo, Limboro, and Salumbone) and 4 kelurahan (the same as a village – but it’s located in a city) in Palu City (Panau, Tondo, Lambara, and Buluri). Until this article is written, the Jitupasna has been conducted in 7 locations, i.e. Panau Kelurahan, Tondo Kelurahan, Loli Pada Village, Lampo Village, Tangkulowi Village, Boladangko Village and Bolapapu Village. “The first preparation training for the Jitupasna facilitators (Jitupasna tools socialization) was held on the 30 November 2018 which was attended by 30 participants from the ERCB local partners (Karsa, Awam Green and YMP),“ added Ilham Syaiful Huda from LPTP. The purpose of the training was in order the participants understand the objectives of the Jitupasna, and they are able to apply the Jitupasna method and tools. Besides that, the second training (Jitupasna result evaluation) was conducted on 11 December 2018 and it was attended by 25 participants from the ERCB local partners (Karsa, Awam Green and YMP) in Villa Sutan Raja, Mantikulore Kelurahan, East Palu Sub-District, Palu. The objective was in order the participants understand the Jitupasna flow, targets and are able to develop a Jitupasna document. The Jitupasna would not become the only post disaster need assessment, however, there would be a Participatory Disaster Risk Appraisal (PDRA) in order to get a thorough risk assessment towards the current condition that would become the ground for developing a recommendation for the rehabilitation and reconstruction plan that pays more attention to the disaster risks.
