Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui karakteristik-karakteristik kepemimpinan Geuchik yang bagaimana yang mempengaruhi tingkat kesejahteraan suatu gampong. Pengolahan data menggunakan analisis regresi logistik. Peubah bebas yang terdiri dari 7 peubah yaitu yaitu tingkat pendidikan, masa jabatan, umur, keterampilan konseptual, partisipasi, kemampuan delegasi, dan integritas seorang Geuchik. Hasil analisis regresi logistik menunjukkan bahwa tingkat pendidikan dan keterampilan konseptual Geuchik berpengaruh nyata terhadap kesejahteraan suatu gampong di Aceh Selatan.

We assess the extent to which post-tsunami aid in Aceh helped beneficiaries to stabilize and restore their pre-disaster livelihoods, and/or develop new livelihoods. We draw upon qualitative data captured in 183 in-depth interviews and 38 focus group discussions involving village leaders, livelihood aid participants, and NGO workers. Our results show that livelihood assistance helped people stabilize their household finances and partially restore their pre-disaster livelihoods. Furthermore, we found that aid programs were able to help some people without pre-disaster livelihood experience to participate in part-time, ad hoc work. However, aid packages were generally not able to support the development of full-time, sustainable new livelihoods for people lacking pre-disaster training and experience. Our data suggests that it is difficult to conduct efficient and sustainable livelihood development initiatives within the time pressures and current institutional approaches to large-scale post-disaster reconstruction.

Many efforts have been done either by government or non-government organizations to minimize disaster impact. Resilient village program (Destana Program) is one of those efforts that is aimed to obtain community resilience in facing disasters. The purpose of this research is to examine Destana Program that had been done by two different organizations toward community resilience in coastal area after tsunami: study case of two villages in Aceh Besar. The data within this research were collected by delivering questionnaires, interviews and direct observation in relation to community resilience. The collected data were tested by using independent sample t-test and categorized based on the average. The results show that is differences between Destana Program which is conducted by Local Management Agency of Aceh Besar and by non-government organization. The results also indicate that resilience score of Gampong Kahju is higher than Gampong Pul...

Population growth is the change in the amount and composition of the population from year to year. It requires a method to project not only number of the population, but also the composition of the population in a region. In this study we apply dynamic system approach to simulate and project the number and composition of the population of Banda Aceh based on factors that influence population growth, that is, births, deaths, and migration. This simulation and projection is done by Vensim PLE 6.0.1c. Projecting population growth of Banda Aceh to year 2100 shows a positive trend with an average population growth of 0.88% every year with a ‘demographic bonus’ estimated to be around 2025-2035.

However, the relocation of tsunami survivors also caused other impacts after the relocation was carried out. If the relocation site is not as desirable, it can cause tsunami survivors to decide to out-migrate the relocation area. This study was conducted to determine factors that significantly affect the decision of migration of tsunami survivors from the relocation area. This research is expected to provide information on post-disaster relocation for consideration in making relocation policy in the future. We use classification tree, which is part of the CART (Classification and Regression Trees) method. The data used is from The Aftermaid of Aid (AoA) survey conducted by International Center for Aceh and Indian Ocean Studies (ICAIOS) and Earth Observatory of Singapore (EOS) during 2014-2015.
