Introduction: According to the Indonesia Index Disaster Risk 2023, disaster events occurred in almost all regions of Indonesia. Out of 514 districts/cities, disasters occurred in 451, or 87% of the total. There are many strategies and regulations issued by the Governments, one of which is the Regulation of the Ministry of Health MoH Regulation number 75 of 2019 concerning Health Crisis Management. The Center for Health Policy and Management (CHPM) at the Faculty of Medicine, Public Health and Nursing, University Gadjah Mada (FK-KMK UGM), as a policy center in academic settings, must integrate these policies to develop programs. What support can be provided to develop disaster health management? Methods: A review of all field report activities, webinars, seminars, training, workshops, and mentoring that had been conducted by Division Disaster Health Management, CHPM FK-KMK UGM during 2024. Results: There are two activities conducted for individual training: the Webinar on Disaster Health Management and the Seminar on Emergency Medical Team. Five activities for organization training that all aim to arrange and assist public health centers, hospitals, and district health offices to prepare a Health Disaster Plan. The total number of participants in individual training was 195, and in organizational training, there were 25 institutions. The evaluation result showed that participants need all this training, and it is very relevant to their work. In addition to increasing their capacity, preparing for health disaster plans is an urgent issue for health sectors to develop an operational planning document for handling disasters. Conclusion: Academic roles in developing health disaster management extend beyond the curriculum to include policies focused on training and mentoring. In addition, the consultants in the Division of Disaster Health Management, CHPM FK-KMK UGM, are committed to supporting health sectors in developing practical, evidence-based policy and management solutions for health disaster planning.
