The shift in the disaster paradigm increasingly refers to disaster risk reduction efforts to reduce the potential impact of damage and loss from certain potential hazards within a certain period of time. One of the efforts to reduce disaster risk is through disaster risk studies supported by disaster data and information which includes (1) hazard analysis, as data resulting from identification of disaster-prone areas; (2) vulnerability analysis, as data resulting from identifying vulnerability parameters, namely physical, social, economic and environmental and (3) capacity analysis, as data resulting from identifying the resilience of the community, government and private sector in responding to disasters. According to data from the Indonesian Disaster Information Data (DIBI) for 2013-2023, 183 landslides occurred in West Bandung Regency. Historical landslide data shows that there is an increase in the intensity of landslides that occur in village areas in West Bandung Regency, every rainy season there are landslides that occur. From these data it can be concluded that West Bandung Regency is a district that is prone to landslides. In 2014, the Cililin Village area, Cililin District, West Bandung Regency experienced a landslide disaster, where the landslide buried a house, causing one person to die on the spot and one person to be seriously injured after officers worked for 2 hours to save the victim. As a result of the landslide, one house was badly damaged and 4 houses were threatened with landslides, so the residents were evacuated to anticipate further landslides. The area in Cililin District has the potential to experience landslides when the rainy season enters, because the location is hilly with a soil structure that is prone to movement. If the water penetrates the impermeable soil which acts as a sliding surface, the soil becomes slippery and the soil above it will weather. moving along the slope and going off the slope or what is usually called a landslide (Riyalda & Turyana, 2018). The aim of this research is to identify the risk of landslides, identify community capacity in dealing with disasters and government efforts in dealing with landslides in Cililin District, West Bandung Regency. The research methods used are risk analysis, descriptivev quantitative and content analysis. The stages in this research are analyzing the risk of landslides from hazard and vulnerability maps in the form of economic vulnerability, physical vulnerability, social vulnerability and environmental vulnerability. Next, by looking at community capacity based on a questionnaire with criteria based on institutions, early warning, disaster education and preparedness development and the final stage is through interviews to see what efforts the government has made in dealing with landslide disasters. Based on the results of the landslide disaster risk analysis of the entire Cililin District in terms of danger and vulnerability (physical, social, economic and environmental), it can be seen that the villages that have a high risk category are Karyamukti Village, Nanggerang Village, Mukapayung Village, Karanganyar Village, and Kidang Pananjung Village. From the results of the risk analysis, there are village areas that have a high risk so that there is a need for preparation in the form of community capacity. Based on the results of capacity analysis in Cililin District, especially in the 6 villages that were the research locations, Cililin Village has a high capacity category, medium category namely Karyamukti Village, Mukapayung Village and medium category namely Nanggerang Village, Rancapanggung Village and Karangtanjung Village. The efforts made in Cililin District, especially in the 6 villages that were the research locations, were divided into two categories, namely government activities in dealing with landslides which included training, outreach, simulations, disaster response villages, evacuation routes and early warning systems and community contributions. includes disaster response volunteers and community contributions in reducing the risk of landslides.
