dc.description.abstract | The general objective of this study is to uncover the lapses and the unseen
barriers existing in disaster response management in Davao City. The data was
collected through a survey questionnaire with 400 respondents in Davao City
responders. The findings show a significant relationship between disaster
response and management barriers. The University of Mindanao Davao City
could consider collaborating with the NGO's, and other agencies to organize
disaster preparedness and response exercises that involve the students,
faculty, and staff. This will help build a culture of preparedness within the
university community and provide opportunities for hands-on training and
learning. By implementing these measures, the University of Mindanao Davao
City can help ensure the safety and well-being of its students, faculty, and staff
during disasters and contribute to building a more resilient community.
