Land is a fundamental necessity, especially in disaster-prone regions like Indonesia. Land disputes in such areas can affect the accuracy of administrative and field data, making prevention efforts crucial. This study focuses on Sleman Regency, an area vulnerable to Mount Merapi eruptions, with the aim of examining the strategies and challenges in preventing land disputes in disaster-prone areas. Empirical legal research—field research to uncover conflict prevention measures and obstacles—was used in this study. This study concludes that the prevention strategy is implemented through the adequacy of planning programmes to strengthen the orderly system of land administration, modernization of land information systems and programmes to strengthen awareness of land law in all types of disaster areas, certainty of the implementation of prevention planning programmes in a participatory, transparent, and accountable manner, and realisation of community land la This programme faces many challenges, including corruption, bad governance, and a disrespect for legal restrictions and the public interest in preventing land and social problems.
