Public  involvement  has  become  a  crucial  part  in  increasing  the  efficiency  of  disaster management  activities nowadays.  In  particular,  collaboration  between  civil  society  and municipalities  emerge  in  disaster  situations  because  uncertainties  in  personal  perception compel  them  to  do  so  more  than  their  own  willingness  to  involved  in  disaster  management activity.  Since  this appears  to  have  occurred  as  a  response  to  the  2011  flood  situation  in Thailand, the question is how a successful was this collaboration? The aim of this research is to identify factors influencing people’s involvement in disaster management activity. The two study objectivesare  as  follows:  (1)  to  elucidate  the  characteristics  of  flood  responses  in  the selected  case  study,  and  (2)  to  measure  the  level  of  involvement  of  community  members  in flood-prone urban areas during the flood situation in 2011. This study area is located in PakKretMunicipality, NonthaburiProvince, which is considered as one area that was successful in  its  flood  management  efforts  during  the  2011  flood  situation.  This  research  utilized  a questionnaire  survey,  which  adopts  and  extends  concepts  relevant  to  willingness  to  pay  for and take part in disaster management activities. Fivefactors were applied to the investigation: (1) Respondents’ information; (2) Decision of respondents to take action, classified by flood inundation  level;  (3) Perception  towards  stakeholders  in  flood  management  activities;  (4) Factors  influencing  respondents  to  become  involved  in  flood  management  activity;  and  (5) Current preparation and response effort. The study found that external groups such as central and  local  government,  community  leaders  and  members  have  to  take  responsibility  as  first-tier  respondents  in  disaster  situations.  In  the  case  of  collaboration,  community  members  are willing to help government sector as volunteers, and the three most influentialfactors which led  community  members  to  become  involved  in  disaster  management  activity  are  level  of severity, duration of disaster, and expectation to avoid escalation of the situation.
