Design/methodology/approach – Based on an exploratory case study focusing on the 2010
eruption of Merapi volcano in Central Java, Indonesia, the paper seeks to analyse the emergence of
disaster response fully organized by grassroots groups in Yogyakarta. In advancing the concept of
informational capital, this paper analyses how the grassroots groups were able to mobilize resources
for disaster mitigation, through which social capital became the foundation of community-based
disaster response and recovery. Furthermore, the mobilization of social capital was significantly
enhanced by mutual interactions facilitated by the use of information technology. This is evident in
the role of Jalin Merapi, a web-based organization formed to respond to the crisis after the
volcano eruption.
