sympathy. Concept about disability is still limited to physical impairment (defect). From interviewee disaster management agency Mentawai, there is a concern that people with disabilities will create a burden for the agency to conduct field activities. People with disabilities can work as civil servants only in relation to administrative work in the office. All interviewees had attended formal training about disability. Their experiences learning about disability was mainly by collaboration with NGOs. One interviewee from Klaten learned about disability from reading booklets about DRR from ASB. . people with disabilities in DRR. All interviewees mentioned that if people with disability are given sufficient knowledge on DRR, they can protect and save themselves independently. Followed socialisation on disability and participation in drafting of national regulation on disability-inclusive disaster risk management Interested in planning activities for people with disabilities about DRR. All interviewees have experiences interaction with people with disabilities whether having family member with disability. Interviewees think that stigma in community prevents people with disabilities to act optimally in their life Systemic (organisational, resources available and not available that influence BPBD) Perceived lack of budget as primary obstacles for implementation of DIDRR. Shortage of human resource personnel and low capacity in DIDRR. BPBD have no data specifically on people with disabilities but mention that they can have access of data managed by social affairs agency. One interviewee from disaster management agency Ciamis mentioned concern about potential overlapping with Social Affairs Department at district level if they conducted DIDRR activities. While others such as Klaten seen it as Having high interest on data of people with disabilities to make good quality and tangible programmes. Have interest to participate in training on disability.

Have interest to collaborate with NGO and DPOs to work on
potential collaboration across agencies on DIDRR. Legislative (laws that influence BPBD) and policy (that influences BPBD. According to all interviewees, national regulation cannot directly be applied at district level. Adoption at local level needs time. Also requiring constant advocacy to follow up the regulation and budgeting for DIDRR issue. No local regulation (district) on DIDRR reported for all areas (However, a related provincial regulation exists in Yogyakarta and also Central Java). Almost all BPBDs have internal policy of BPBD regarding priority groups. Only Mentawai Islands does not have such policy in place. Good motivation in follow up implementing the national regulation for DIDRR and have ideas on following up DIDRR regulation. District disaster management plan and contingency plan for tsunami are available and can be reviewed to integrate inclusion component. It is interesting that the needs of capacity building and technical assistance were also raised during interview with local disaster management agency (BPBD) officials. This draws a recommendation for capacity building activities regarding disability-inclusive DRR to provide intensive capacity building of government with regard to DIDRR. BPBD officials also expressed their wish to collaborate with CSOs, NGOs and DPOs to implement disability-inclusive DRR activities. This also reflects messages of the Sendai Framework for DRR regarding partnerships at all levels to realise disability-inclusive DRR.
