The landslide disaster in Munjul Village, Purwakarta, had a significant impact on the psychological well-being of the affected community. Many victims experienced trauma, anxiety, and a sense of hopelessness, underscoring the need for a strategic approach to restore their psychological resilience. This study aims to examine the emotional learning strategies implemented to enhance the psychological resilience of disaster victims. A qualitative case study approach was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving victims, volunteers, and psychosocial support personnel. The findings indicate that effective emotional learning strategies include emotional recognition, emotion regulation training, social support, and community-based reflective activities. Integrating emotional learning into post-disaster recovery activities has been shown to help victims manage their emotions, make sense of traumatic experiences, and improve their resilience and adaptability to new conditions. These findings have significant implications for the development of psychosocial intervention programs grounded in emotional education approaches.
