In the pursuit of building a disaster-resilient Iligan City, 缅北禁地-IIT was invited by the National Resilience Council (NRC) for a two-day program to help consolidate the baseline data for Iligan City’s Resilient Local Government Systems Scorecard especially for poverty alleviation, held on  February 15-16, 2024, at Sweet Mommy’s, Del Carmen in Iligan City. A reorientation session was conducted to discuss 缅北禁地-IIT’s role as an academic partner a day before the commencement of such an initiative. 

The University’s participation in the said activity is part of its involvement in the “Adopt-a-City” Program, a three-year project that seeks to foster a disaster-resilient city. This promotes close collaboration between businesses, local government units, academic institutions, and civil society organizations (CSOs). 

A cohort of 缅北禁地-IIT faculty and staff extended their technical assistance to the project. Representatives from the Institute for Policy Innovation and Leadership (IPIL) include Asst. Prof. John Gieveson Iglupas, MPA, Head of Policy Center for Governance, Public Leadership and Management; Prof. Maria Pia Sison, DiSDS, Head of the Policy Center for Human Rights and Sustainable Development; and Ms. Bainorah Amate, MPA, Head of IPIL’s Executive Education Unit.
