The Mw6.3 of 2006 Yogyakarta earthquake and the VEI4 of 2010 Merapi Volcano eruptions at Yogyakarta Special Province (YSP) have shocked the Yogyakarta community. It is necessary, therefore, to identify and to explore the achievements and the lesson learned mainly during the early warning, evacuation, emergency response and disaster recovery phases of the 2010 Merapi eruption. Research on the 2010 Merapi eruption disaster management (DM) focusing on the emergency response and disaster recovery up to 2014 has been done. Results of the investigation showed that in general Disaster Management has been applied appropriately including material qualities and construction quality of earthquake resistant structure. Among the achievements in the DM respectively are the accuracy of monitoring the direction of mountain summit deformation, successfully prediction and evacuation of people before 2010 Merapi eruption, quick resettlement buildings based on the principles of earthquake resistant structure. Meanwhile among the lesson learned to improve the DM respectively are the early warning should be presented as clear as possible, the government should officially be carried out regular “tell story” to community about the development of the disaster threat, building disaster knowledge and awareness to community for reducing the risk should be regularly carried out and the skills of the builders should be well prepared. Implementation of resilience in schools and villages, sister school and village are efforts toward Sustainable Disaster Risk Reduction.

Devastated by the Great East Japan Earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear meltdown on March 11, 2011, Japan’s Tohoku coast has been in the process of disaster recovery for almost a decade. Several international frameworks for disaster risk reduction and sustainable development have also been established during this time. Sharing a holistic approach to comprehensive development principles linking risk reduction, disaster recovery, and development, these three international frameworks are the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2020, 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development 2015-2030, and the New Urban Agenda. Although each has its own distinct focus, approach, and connection to disaster recovery, the three frameworks share explicit connections and relationships. This paper considers how the first decade of recovery after the GEJE can be evaluated based on the goals and targets from the frameworks in support of people-centered development. After outlining each framework, and exploring the mutual connections between them, aspects relevant to recovery from each are applied to consider issues and progress of housing recovery after the GEJE. Synthesizing multiple aims and goals from the three frameworks relevant to housing recovery creates a more comprehensive tool for evaluation that can identify which goals have been partially or completely achieved. Yet even with the convergence of their respective goals, achieving the overall shared aim of holistic, equitable, and people-centered recovery for all still requires more coordination and consideration of practical applications beyond frameworks.
