With the goal of fortifying their respective disaster preparedness plans, DepEd Region XII conducted a three-day Contingency Plan Enhancement for Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) Coordinators from January 30 to February 1, 2023, at Isla Jardin del Mar, Glan, Sarangani Province. Fifty-five participants from the eight schools divisions in Region XII, led by their respective DRRM Coordinators, attended the workshop. The Contingency Plan Enhancement was divided into several sessions, each focusing on different aspects of DRRM, such as hazard assessment, evacuation planning, and post-disaster recovery. The sessions were conducted by the Project Development Officer II of DepEd XII, Jann Earl Wendell J. Lope, and the attendees were given opportunities to actively participate in group discussions and exercises. Lope expressed confidence in the capability of the DRRM Coordinators to effectively lead disaster response and recovery efforts in their respective schools and divisions. “
