##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
The researchers aimed to explore the concept and experience of pre-service teachers in Disaster Risk Reduction Management, specifically in the Philippines, through conducting a qualitative case study. Specifically, the researchers interpreted the data through qualitative case analysis. The 79 respondents voluntarily participated in this research. The data gathered through the short answer questionnaires given after the DRRM seminar using Google Forms. The analysis of the responses revealed that the pre-service teachers were aware of Disaster Risk Reduction Management and encountered related challenges in their partner schools. Moreover, they shared their perspective on the effects of being exposed to Disaster Risk Reduction Management training and the programs and initiatives that the school should be implementing to increase the knowledge and skills of disaster-prepared teachers.
