RSPC 2024 Delegates from Digos City, Tagum City, and Davao de Oro Participate in Earthquake Drill

March 18, 2024

In a remarkable display of preparedness and collaboration, delegates from the Schools Division of Digos City, Tagum City, and Davao de Oro actively participated in a large-scale earthquake drill during the Regional Schools Press Conference (RSPC) 2024. This joint effort aimed to enhance disaster resilience, foster safety awareness, and equip our young journalists with essential life-saving skills.

Key Highlights:

• Unified Response: Over 400 RSPC participants, including student journalists, educators, and organizers, synchronized their actions during the simulated earthquake scenario.
• Evacuation Protocols: Delegates swiftly followed evacuation routes, demonstrating their understanding of safe exit procedures.
• Search and Rescue: Teams practiced locating and assisting “injured” individuals, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and compassion.
• Communication: Effective communication channels were established to relay critical information and coordinate emergency responses.
• Lessons Learned: Post-drill debriefings allowed participants to reflect on strengths and areas for improvement.

This collaborative effort underscores the RSPC’s commitment to holistic education—one that extends beyond journalism skills to include life-saving knowledge. As we champion the MATATAG Agenda, let us remain steadfast in our dedication to safety, resilience, and unity.

Stay informed, stay prepared, and let us continue writing stories that matter—both in ink and in life.
