This study aims to analyze the role of Gotana (Gondek Tanggap Bencana) in disaster management in Gondek Village, Jombang through Talcott Parsons' Structural Functionalism theory approach. The main focus of the study is to understand how coordination between Gotana, the village government, and other institutions affects the effectiveness of disaster management, and to identify factors that cause low community awareness and participation in disaster management programs. This study also explores how traditional practices and local beliefs affect community participation in disaster management activities. The research methods used include interviews, observations, and document analysis. The results of the study indicate that coordination between Gotana, the village government, and other institutions is not optimal, due to communication barriers and differences in procedures. Community awareness and participation are low due to lack of information and socialization that does not match the residents' schedules. Traditional practices and local beliefs still greatly influence the way communities respond to disasters, so integration between traditional practices and modern approaches is needed to improve the effectiveness of disaster management and community participation. This study suggests improving coordination through joint training and the use of better communication tools, as well as involving community leaders and religious leaders in socialization activities. In addition, disaster management programs should integrate traditional values with modern practices to increase their acceptance and effectiveness. Analysis of social actions and social systems in the context of disaster management in Gondek Village provides important insights for improving disaster management strategies at the local level.
