Local Government of Magelang Regency initiates the Sister Village Program after Mount Merapi Eruption in 2010. The idea of this program is to connect villages at risk from Merapi eruption to partner villages with less risk in the surrounding regions. This program is part of post-disaster recovery initiatives at the local level which includes planned evacuation routes, shelters, provision of food and other daily essentials. This paper aims to shed light on the role of sister village program in promoting community resilience after the volcanic eruption of Merapi. It is found that the system of sister village program can fulfill many aspects of community resilience components. Considering Indonesia is one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world, this program should be regarded as a good example to be replicated in other prone areas in the country.

PurposePost-disaster population resettlement is a complicated process, during which the restoration of livelihood and lifestyle plays a critical role in achieving a successful resettlement outcome. This paper attempts to examine how recovery policies and relocation approaches influence people's livelihood recovery and perception of wellbeing. It specifically investigates the role of farmland in producing a livelihood and maintaining a rural lifestyle among displaced people.Design/methodology/approachThrough face-to-face questionnaire surveys and in-depth interviews with rural residents displaced from their villages after the Wenchuan earthquake in Sichuan, China, this study presents both quantitative and qualitative evidence to investigate how post-disaster policies and particularly the availability of farmland influence people's recovery and their satisfaction with the post-resettlement life.FindingsData suggest that availability of farmland, in spite of the size, makes big differences in post-disaster recovery because farmland provides resettled people with not only a livelihood to secure basic living but also a guarantee to maintain a rural lifestyle.Research limitations/implicationsMore samples are needed for analyzing factors that significantly influence disaster-displaced farmers' recovery and wellbeing post resettlement.Practical implicationsThis study can be used as an important reference for making plans for post-disaster recovery and population resettlement programs in other disaster-prone countries across the world.Originality/valueLand-based relocation is proposed as a desirable approach to addressing challenges of livelihood restoration amongst the resettled population in rural areas of developing countries.

Perempuan dalam setiap bencana umumnya hanya dipandang sebagai korban yang pasif dan tidak melakukan apa-apa setelah bencana terjadi. Padahal peran perempuan dalam bencana dapat berpengaruh besar dalam percepatan upaya pemulihan pasca bencana. Dari hasil pengolahan data mentah dilapangan, strategi adaptasi yang dilakukan oleh perempuan Desa Pandansari pasca erupsi Gunungapi Kelud tahun 2014 mencakup adaptasi sosial dan ekonomi. Pada adaptasi sosial beberapa perempuan mengalokasikan seluruh anggota keluarga untuk bekerja, bentuk lain dari adaptasi ini adalah dengan adanya kegiatan kumpul warga yang rutin dilakukan seminggu sekali. Dan pada adaptasi ekonomi, beberapa perempuan  menerapkan diversifikasi pekerjaan untuk meningkatkan pendapatan keluarga sementara menunggu lahan pertanian dapat diolah kembali. Seluruh bentuk adaptasi tersebut merupakan upaya untuk memulihkan sumber-sumber penghidupan dengan cepat.Kata kunci: sumber penghidupan, berkelanjutan, perempuan, dan KeludABSTRACT Women in every disaster are generally only seen as passive victims and do nothing after the disaster. Whereas the role of women in disasters can have a major impact in the acceleration of post-disaster recovery efforts. From the results of raw data processing in the field, adaptation strategies implemented by Pandansari Village women after the eruption of Gunungapi Kelud in 2014 include social and economic adaptation. In social adaptation some women allocate all family members to work, another form of adaptation is with the regular gathering of citizens once a week. And in economic adaptation, some women apply job diversification to increase family income while waiting for agricultural land to be reprocessed. All forms of adaptation are an attempt to restore livelihood resources quickly.Keywords: livelihood, sustainable, women, and Kelud
