Disasters have hit Indonesia, covering landslides, floods, earthquakes, volcano eruptions, plane crashes to the outbreak of a pandemic. People's attention usually leads to the disaster that occurred, casualties, or how the condition of the survivors. Have you ever observed the works of a group wearing orange uniforms? Yes, they are the Search and Rescue (SAR) team and the community of disaster volunteers who respond after a disaster occurs.

Learning the involvement of the SAR team to help people during disasters is part of the 'Climate Change and Life Survival' training of Stube HEMAT Yogyakarta that is done by visiting and having a dialogue with the Search and Rescue (SAR) team of the Special Region of Yogyakarta at 15: 00-17: 00 Western Indonesian Time (Wednesday, 24/02/ 2021). Several students who took part in the exposures came from various regions, including Kupang, Manggarai, Nias, Lampung, and Bangka.  SAR team presented Eko Susilo, who is in charge of K3 division coordinator, accompanied  the participants who wanted to know what SAR was, its history, activities, how to be a member and what the motivation to be a member of the SAR team was.

Eko Susilo explained that SAR was originally a group of people who had the same hobbies and gathered together from different backgrounds which then formed a community that aimed to help others. Structurally, the SAR team is not a government agency but a collaboration in disaster management. Something is interesting about the SAR team membership as they come from various work backgrounds, some are motorcycle taxi drivers, freelance workers, teachers, soldiers, and students. Recruitment of SAR members is based on willingness and eagerness to help others and willingness to learn together to equip themselves in Search and Rescue skills, such as basic medical knowledge, diving, vertical rescue, mountain, and forest survival so that they are ready to help when the disaster or incident occurs

In this dialogue, it was revealed that members of the SAR team do not get salary or incentives like other workers because being members of the SAR team is voluntary, and they do their work sincerely without material income orientation. Also, some thrilling stories were revealed when the SAR team and the competent parties evacuated a mountain climber who fell into the crater of Mount Merapi. There is also an experience of the evacuation of climber from Russia who got lost on Mount Merapi, and thankfully in this incident, the climber was found safe. Currently, during the eruption of Mount Merapi, the SAR team is coordinating the Disaster Response Unit (DRU) volunteers in DIY to work together to monitor various monitoring posts. Completing this exposure the participants observed the equipment used in the rescue such as rubber boats, buoys, ropes, diving equipment, stretchers, helmets, flashlights, and other tools, even the participants practiced using rescue tools as an introduction to the rescue process.

The experience during the dialogue inspired the participants, Ari Surida, an Village Development Academy (APMD) student from Bangka said, "I was so touched to hear the story from friends of the SAR team and Eko that SAR members did this tough activity voluntarily, they even collected funds independently. If it is calculated that it is not profitable, even consuming time and very risky, but they do it all because of their hobbies and motivation to help people."

This kind of direct interaction and dialogue becomes a medium to transfer  sense of care and humanity towards the disaster that occurs. The students not only learn about climate change that ignites disasters but also sense of care, humanity, and social solidarity owned by SAR team members who come and help people when a disaster occurs. ***
