"This article aims to discuss the religious-ecological knowledge of the Tenggerese community on the slope of Mount Bromo, Probolinggo (East Java, Indonesia) and its contribution to disaster mitigation. Within the framework of traditional ecological knowledge, we will analyze field data from 2011 until 2016. The results of this study show that many Tenggerese people believe Mount Bromo to be the axis of religion and its surrounding area to be a sacred place. They also believe in and practice several religious-ecological customs in understanding volcanic eruptions and various natural signs. For them, an eruption is a supernatural process involving gods and goddesses that takes place to improve living conditions. However, living in postcolonial times with modern cultures and capitalistic agricultural practices has made some Tenggerese people question and challenge religious authorities when they experience the economic damage caused by volcanic eruptions. Religious authorities can handle the challenge by invoking the concept of communal harmony. Further, we argue, government agencies may incorporate Tenggerese religiousecological knowledge into disaster mitigation practices. They can combine modern mitigation mechanisms with such wisdom. This hybrid mitigation model may facilitate the coordination of government agencies with traditional leaders to prepare strategically before a disaster strikes as well as implement tactical actions when a disaster occurs."

"This policy paper carries the theme: Towards Professional Planners in the Termination of Stages of RPJPN 2005-2025 and Determination of Strategy for Implementing Indonesia's Vision 2045. With Sub-themes: Increasing the Role of Planners in the Long-Term Perspective Framework for the Indonesian Vision 2045. It is concluded that there are three problems faced in increasing the role of planners in the framework of the elaboration of the Indonesian Vision 2045, as well as in preparing policy recommendations to realize professional planners. The three problems are the lack of understanding of JFP regulations, the existence of "minor" opinions on JFP, and a lack of leadership commitment. To overcome these three problems, the authors propose four alternative policies and three types of recommendations to be carried out by the parties in a planned and coordinated manner. This policy paper recommends that to deal with the VUCA phenomenon, a planner must be visionary, innovative and agile. Furthermore, with the enactment of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 and beyond, professional planners are required to have six abilities, namely: Complex Problem Solving, Social Skills, Process Skills, System Skills, Digital Skills, and Cognitive Abilities."

"This trailblazing book outlines an interdisciplinary "process model" for urban design that has been developed and tested over time. Its goal to describe useful steps to approach the transformation of urban spaces. Urban ecological design illustrates the different stages in which the process is organized, using theories, techniques, images, and case studies. In essence, it presents a "how-to" method to transform the urban landscape that is thoroughly informed by theory and practice.The overall objective of the book is to reinforce the role of the urban designer as an honest broker and promoter of design processes and as an active agent of social creativity in the production of the public realm."

"This book advocates a fresh approach to planning that anticipates, rather than reacts to, the changes in climate currently in process. Today’s spatial planning procedures rely on historical evidence instead of preparing for factors that by definition lie in the future, yet which are relatively uncontroversial: shortages of water, sea level rise and rises in average temperatures being but three examples. Arguing for more flexibility, the contributors view ‘complexity’ as the key to transforming the way we plan in order to better equip us to face uncertainties about our future environment."
