Abstract This study investigates innovative approaches, proposing concepts that redefine the way we understand and implement tourism disaster management through collaborative systems and extensive networks. During 2000 to 2024, we found 205 documents related to tourism framework, management, disasters, and disaster management in Indonesia. Manual and automatic screening was used. Finally, 78 Scopus papers were used to develop a framework for tourism disaster, emphasizing discretion, responsibility, and sustainability. Findings emphasize the strategic importance of prioritizing networks with horizontal components in tourism disaster management. Doing so opens new possibilities for local and commercial entities to engage in multilevel collaboration, fostering adaptable and efficient strategies to address tourism-related disasters. We explored collaboration across multiple dimensions, including interrelated stages, components, operational systems, and strategic factors. We highlighted creating an environment that fosters trust, commitment and knowledge sharing, especially in high-pressure situations. We highlighted the need to forge collaborative ties that go beyond mere documentation to active manifestation in real-world contexts across a variety of scenarios. We argued for a shift towards a relational perspective in tourism disaster recovery that recognizes the important role of collaboration and its associated networks. In doing so, we uncovered the potential for positive outcomes by maintaining these collaborative relationships in tourism disaster management.
