Several volcanic events that experienced eruptions, namely Mount Anak Krakatau in April 2020 experienced 8 eruptions, Mount Semeru from March-April 2020 experienced 49 eruptions until February 2021 is still on alert status, Mount Sinabung 27 times during January 2021 experienced eruptions, Mount Ili Lewotolok NTT during January 2021 experienced 2 eruptions, further making the importance of community preparedness and mental readiness in dealing with eruption events. The expected goal is to get an overview of the mental readiness of families on the slopes of Mount Merapi in facing eruption events.
