Pentingsari tourism village as a pioneer of the natural tourism sector in DIY has a high level of vulnerability to disasters, especially natural disasters. There needs to be a joint program between the government, institutions and the community where tourism village managers are provided with facilities to carry out the disaster risk reduction activities. Integration of disaster risk reduction programs through tourist villages will be the right combination considering both have the same goal of improving the quality of life of the community. Social capital is one of the strategies in the effort of sustainable development. Investment in social capital is given by each party both in the form of time, effort, mind, and the other things that can help the social ties and cooperation become the capital to achieve group goals. Disaster risk reduction programs through tourism villages are community development programs carried out through local agents with empowered communities as their final destination.
