Abstract

Flood is natural phenomena. For certain rural area, there is a local wisdom that people hadadjusted their live with the flood. On the other side, especially at dense urban area, most of people consider flood as a disaster. Therefore Flood Mitigation Program (FMP) had been conducted to anticipate flood, such as hydraulic structure and flood policy implementation. However in general, FMP was designed without take into account the stake holder perceptions about flood. It caused ineffective and unsustain program due to minimum support from several important stake holder. Since huge samples and interviews are necessary to understand the main perception of the stake holder, Q Method was introduced into this research to understand the stake holder perceptions. And then as well as FMP, flood adaptation will be developed. The advantages of QMethod are subjectivityidentification and small samples. Q Method starts with collecting the flood opinion among the stake holder, and thenarrangesthe statement according to its frequency. The questioners were designed based on frequent statements to quantity the opinion according to relevancy and importance among the statement to the flood. The questioners were distributed again to the stake holder, and then statistical analysis was conducted based on respondents, not based on statements as normal questioner analysis. Samarinda City has long story about FMP. Since flood still occurs, Samarinda City was selected as good case study for these flood new countermeasures. A better effective and sustainable flood programs are expected as outcome of this research.
