Furthermore, a better understanding of the critical differences in information-seeking behavior can assist in designing effective intervention models and approaches. Therefore, this paper discusses the model for strengthening local communities’ disaster awareness and information literacy behavior. Mixed method research is based on research questions using case studies from two local governments in Lampung Province; Bandar Lampung City and South Lampung Regency. Quantitative analysis was performed with simple statistics. Meanwhile, qualitative analysis was carried out using an interactive model assisted by triangulation tables. The solution that can be used so that disaster education and literacy become strong and equitable is to combine it with a specific approach. The approach we suggest in this research is the concept of multistakeholder education.Keywords: disaster literacy, disaster education, disaster awareness ER -
