Desa Saudara atau Sister Village merupakan bentuk kerja sama dalam konteks krisis bencana Gunung Api Merapi. Jika terjadi bencana di satu desa maka desa lain berfungsi untuk membantu penduduk di desa yang terkena bencana, misalnya dalam penyediaan tempat pengungsian dan membantu dalam proses evakuasi.
