LITERATURE HUNT ABOUT GENDER AND WOMEN in Disaster Contexts and Public Administration

Reyalene Ponce and Emiliza Cabanes, fourth-year student researchers, gathered their literature from the UP Center for Women's and Gender Studies, as well as the UP NCPAG Library for Public Administration and Policy contexts. This is for their thesis titled "Gender, Resilience, and Recovery: Women's Lived Experiences in Typhoon-Affected Communities."

We would like to thank the UP Center for Women's and Gender Studies Library, especially Sir De Jesus, for accommodating our student researchers and providing them with books written by UP CWGS; these publications will undoubtedly help them polish their literature review for their thesis.

PAilaw 2025: SHINING TOGETHER FOR TRANSPARENT AND ACCOUNTABLE GOVERNANCE

More than a year-end celebration, PAilaw 2025 reminds us of our shared responsibility as a community of public administration and disaster management. On December 12, we come together to reassure ourselves of our commitment to ethical leadership, transparent processes, and accountable public service-values that light our way within CPADM and beyond. May this annual lighting ceremony inspire us to continue building institutions grounded in trust, integrity, and genuine service to the public that can be seen not by words, but by actions.

WEBINAR RECAP: “Public Administration Without Border: A Knowledge Exchange and Policy Innovation Forum” In this webinar, key scholars and practitioners are gathered to address some of the most pressing governance and environmental challenges facing the Philippines today. Considering the country has always ranked within the top countries in the world that are prone to disasters, the ecosystem services and resilience session delivered by Dr. Jan Ramel Tumbaga underscores how forest, watershed, and coastal ecosystems act as life-support systems in reducing disaster risks and sustaining communities, hence integrating necessary scientific data into land-use planning, climate adaptation, and DRRM policies of LGUs and institutions.

Complementing it is Dr. John Rey Quiñones’ discussion on pollution control, waste management, and environmental awareness, framing the university as a microcosm of national issues and underlining the role of institutions such as NEUST in modeling compliance with environmental laws and promoting sustainable habits to institutionalize campuswide environmental governance. He highlighted the importance of waste segregation and said that it shouldn’t be taken for granted because for us to achieve genuine change in our environmental and sustainability initiatives.

Anchored by messages from CPADM leadership, the forum puts to the fore that sound public administration is indeed inseparable from environmental stewardship, while responding to the enormous climate risks, ongoing governance and sustainability gaps, and community vulnerabilities involves multisectoral cooperation, evidence-based policymaking, and renewed calls for transparency, accountability, and innovation in the Philippine setting.
