In a proactive effort to enhance community resilience and readiness for emergencies, the Philippine Information Agency Region 4A (PIA-R4A) recently conducted a one-day Public Information and Risk Communication Training in Sto. Tomas City (STC).
This brought together dedicated personnel from the city government, underlining the significance of effective communication during crisis situations.
The primary objective of the one-day training was to equip participants with the necessary skills to effectively communicate during emergency situations.
We do believe that in times of crisis, providing clear and accurate information becomes paramount, as it empowers citizens to take appropriate actions to protect themselves and their communities.
Through this training, participants are now equipped to serve as reliable sources of information, ensuring that timely and critical details are disseminated to those who need it most especially that Taal volcano is showing restiveness.
This initiative by PIA-R4A and the Sto. Tomas City government exemplifies the commitment to prioritize community safety and preparedness.
It underscores the importance of collaboration between government agencies, local leaders, and community members in building a resilient society.
As climate change and various threats continue to challenge our communities, equipping ourselves with effective communication tools is essential to mitigate risks and protection of lives.
The Public Information and Risk Communication Training in STC serves as a shining example of proactive governance and community engagement.
It is a step forward in ensuring that the people of Sto. Tomas City are not only informed but also empowered to respond effectively when emergencies strike.
Such initiatives are vital in building a safer and more resilient future for all.
