The China International Search and Rescue Team(CISAR) was formed in 2001 and is now made up of several
hundred rescue workers and about 20 police dogs. The team brings help and hope to those whose lives are
changed by astorm, flood, earthquake, or any other natural disasters.
After long and careful training, the team went on its first international rescue tasks in 2003. That year, the
Chinese team helped save lives after earthquakes inAlgeriaandIran. It was the first time that a Chinese team had
worked outsideChinawhose members won high praise for bravery and skill.
Since then, the CISAR has completed many tasks. The list of people to whom help has been given is long. The
team treated more than 3,000 people who were wounded in the 2006 earthquake inIndonesia, helped 2,500
wounded people after the earthquake that hitHaitiin 2010, and spent several months giving aid to over 25,000
people suffering from the 2010 floods inPakistan. On April 26, 2015, a group of 62 people from CISAR went
toNepalafter the 8.1 magnitude earthquake that happened there.
Rescue workers are trained to find people, treat wounds, and hand out food, water, and other supplies. They
have to be able to do work that is difficult under conditions which can be very dangerous. After a disaster, there is

they must also bury the dead. That means they have to be strong in both body and mind.

someone else’s. The members of the CISAR have plenty of both and are always ready to go wherever help is
needed.
