In a world increasingly affected by climate change and unpredictable disasters, who would have thought that Indonesia would become a learning hub for a developed country like Australia? This is exactly what happened during the visit of the Western Sydney University (WSU) delegation to Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) as part of a two-week program titled, (Poly)Crisis, Cross-Cultural Responses & Resilience.

The need and demand for electricity in Indonesia are significantly increasing, yet the supply of energy sources is diminished. Concerning the issue, water can be a potential resource to be utilized as alternative energy. However, the use of water as alternative energy has not been used optimally. This is what prompted a group of UNY students to invent portable hydroelectric power plants that can meet electricity needs, especially in rural and remote areas.
