“…Our findings are not surprising and confirmed recent studies that found that volunteers serving during the COVID-19 pandemic, although initially experiencing distress conditions, were "happy" and satisfied [57]. Compared to the few published studies on volunteer civilians, many studies have been conducted on medical students and future healthcare professionals' volunteering, reporting a sense of giving real aid among the benefits, driven by altruism and the ethical imperative to serve their community [58][59][60][61][62].…”

Few studies have been conducted on civil volunteers and their emotional conditions concerning the current COVID-19 pandemic. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 emergency on the mental health (general well-being, depression level, and post-traumatic distress), coping strategies, and training needs in an Italian sample of 331 Civil Protection volunteers of the L’Aquila province, during the first nationwide “lockdown” (8 March–3 June 2020). The rate of respondents to the online survey was limited (11.5%), presumably because displaying distress would be considered a sign of “weakness”, making volunteers unable to do their jobs. More than 90% of the volunteers showed good mental health conditions and a wide utilization of positive coping strategies, with the less experienced displaying better emotional conditions compared to colleagues with 10 or more years of experience. The type of emergency, the relatively few cases of contagion and mortality in the territory compared to the rest of Italy, and the sense of helping the community, together with the awareness of their group identity, could have contributed to the reported well-being. These results may help to identify the needs of volunteers related to this new “urban” emergency to improve both their technical and emotional skills.

“…In the Netherlands, students were eager to priorly arrange all necessary insurance issues and receive basic training in acute care principles, in order to assist their university or even regional health institutions. 79 In the UK, more than 5500 final-year students have been brought into the workforce, considering this kind of 'volunteerism' as a brand-new opportunity for self-directed clinical and research learning. 61 80 81 A structured qualitative survey including students from a single institution in the UK found that their basic motivations to voluntarily support the National Health System were to 'contribute', 'learn', 'benefit from remuneration' and 'do something active during national lockdown'.…”

COVID-19 pandemic has undoubtedly disrupted the well-established, traditional structure of medical education. Τhe new limitations of physical presence have accelerated the development of an online learning environment, comprising both of asynchronous and synchronous distance education, and the introduction of novel ways of student assessment. At the same time, this prolonged crisis had serious implications on the lives of medical students including their psychological well-being and the impact on their academic trajectories. The new reality has, on many occasions, triggered the ‘acting up’ of medical students as frontline healthcare staff, which has been perceived by many of them as a positive learning and contributing experience, and has led to a variety of responses from the educational institutions. All things considered, the urgency for rapid and novel adaptations to the new circumstances has functioned as a springboard for remarkable innovations in medical education,including the promotion of a more “evidence-based” approach.

“…Corona Virus Disease in Indonesia currently impacts all sectors of society, one of which is the education sector. Facing this, the National education system must be able to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic conditions and demand actors in the world of education to be able to improve the quality of education, which is determined by the national rate of education, academic quality, extra education and graduate potential (Bosveld et al, 2020;Patricia, 2020). To achieve this goal, the learning process during the COVID 19 pandemics was carried out at home through online learning to break the chain of the spread of COVID 19.…”
