The study was designed as an action plan to enhance preparedness and response to volcanic hazards in Lipa City. It focused on the risks posed by volcanic events such as base surges, airborne sulfur dioxide, and landslides, which threaten residents, property, and infrastructure, particularly affecting children, the elderly, and those with pre-existing medical conditions. This plan addresses gaps in the city’s current disaster management by combining preventive, protective, and responsive strategies. It emphasizes environmental monitoring, community training in first aid and disaster response, public awareness campaigns, simulation drills, and efficient communication systems to ensure timely and coordinated actions during emergencies. Key interventions include mobile command posts, designated evacuation routes, livelihood recovery programs, and psycho-social support for affected residents
