About the Journal
Tadulako Balia Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction and Sustainable Development is a peer-reviewed academic journal published by the Master’s Program in Economics, Universitas Tadulako, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. The journal focuses on interdisciplinary research related to disaster risk reduction, resilience, and sustainable development, particularly from Global South perspectives.
The journal is conceptually grounded in the notions of Tadulako and Balia from the local knowledge traditions of the Kaili community, reframed as analytical metaphors. Tadulako represents adaptive leadership and risk governance in conditions of uncertainty and crisis, while Balia signifies community-based processes of socio-ecological recovery aimed at restoring balance between human and environmental systems.
By integrating these principles, the journal positions itself as an adaptive intellectual leader in disaster risk governance, promoting knowledge that supports inclusive, resilient, and sustainable socio-ecological recovery.
Aims and Scope
The journal aims to serve as a knowledge bridge between local insights and global scholarly debates in the following areas:
- Disaster economics and post-disaster recovery strategies
- Resilience and adaptive systems
- Green and sustainable economic development
- Local development in disaster-prone and ecologically vulnerable regions
The journal welcomes theoretical, empirical, and policy-oriented contributions that explore transformative approaches to economic resilience and ecological justice, particularly from Global South perspectives.
