Sustaining Development through Community-based Consultation Processes—A Case Study of Aceh and Nias, Indonesia

摘要：

The immense magnitude and devastating nature of the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami of December 2004 posed enormous challenges for Aceh in its smooth recovery and long term sustainable development. This region, situated closest to the epicentre of the undersea earthquake, was the worst hit with around 165 000 people killed, 150 000 houses destroyed and more than half a million people rendered homeless. The cost of the total physical damage in Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam (Aceh) province was estimated to be in excess of USD 1.4 billion, about 8% of the Indonesian GDP in 2004. Only a few months later, in March 2005, a massive earthquake hit Nias Island, killing 800 people and devastating more than 70% of the buildings.
