ABSTRACT
This study examines the implementation of collaborative governance in disaster mitigation efforts in Karimun Regency, Kepulauan Riau Province, Indonesia. As a disaster-prone region, effective mitigation requires the involvement of multiple stakeholders, including government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and local communities. Guided by the theory of collaborative governance, this research explores how stakeholder collaboration enhances disaster mitigation initiatives. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach; data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Informants were purposively selected, including government officials, NGO representatives, and community leaders directly involved in disaster mitigation. Thematic analysis revealed three key findings: the role of stakeholder coordination in aligning mitigation efforts; the importance of community participation in fostering disaster preparedness; and the influence of local policies in shaping effective governance frameworks. The study highlights the significance of mutual trust, shared goals, and clear communication in achieving successful collaboration. However, challenges such as resource constraints and overlapping roles persist, requiring further policy refinement. This research contributes to the understanding of collaborative governance in disaster mitigation, providing insights for policymakers and practitioners to strengthen multi-stakeholder coordination. The findings underscore the critical role of inclusive and participatory governance in addressing disaster risks in vulnerable regions. Contribution: This study provides input to stakeholders that disaster management are a shared responsibility. Collaborative governance is evidence that each stakeholder has capabilities that can be exchanged with other stakeholders (government, private sector, and community) so that together they can find solutions in dealing with disasters.
