AMSA Connect will be closed on Monday 27 April 2026, reopening on Tuesday 28 April 2026. Our search and rescue team will continue to operate during this time.

Engaging with the search and rescue community

We engage with national, domestic, regional and international stakeholders to develop a best practice Australian search and rescue (SAR) system.

We work closely with a diverse range of stakeholders on a national and domestic level and on a regional and international level for the further development of the Australian SAR system.

Our engagement initiatives

As well as providing a SAR service for Australia, we are highly invested in engagement initiatives on domestic, national, regional and international levels.

Our engagement initiatives serve to:

  • strengthen the SAR system by consulting with government and non-government agencies
  • improve the safety education and capability of areas that experience high levels of SAR activity
  • establish safety programs in remote areas of Australia
  • strengthen regional relationships and their SAR capability and training.
