The UP Mindanao Incident Command System was activated for the 4th Davao City-Wide Full-Scale Earthquake and Tsunami Shake-Out Simulation Exercise on July 26, 2024, at 9:00 a.m. Since there were no classes on campus, the exercise participants were administrative personnel, qualifiers going through the admission process, some guests, and service suppliers.

Three siren calls were sounded throughout the exercise. On the first siren, the personnel did the "duck-cover-and-hold" routine in their places. On the second siren, the personnel took a brisk but orderly building evacuation and gathered at the designated assembly points.

UP President Angelo Jimenez joined as a panelist in a discussion on "People" with the theme "Advancing Human Resource Development and Social Inclusion in Mindanao" during the second day of the Mindanao Development Forum 2024, on July 25, 2024, at Acacia Hotel Davao.

Pres. Jimenez shared UP's steps in fostering this agenda by highlighting the importance of quality education during the session.

He highlighted UP's strategies for ensuring the admissions system is inclusive, underscoring his focus on democratizing education access for Mindanaoans, including those from Geographically Isolated and Disadvantaged Areas (GIDA). Examples are UP Mindanao's associate degree programs, the UP Lingap-Iskolar program, and the free online courses offered by the UP Open University as three areas of focus upon advancing this agenda, as well as collaboration and co-creating efforts with other SUCs.

In preparing the new generation of learners in Mindanao for the workforce, President Jimenez emphasized the need to acknowledge differences in each student's learning style and the challenge of tailoring the UP pedagogy to engage them. He noted that the education system has flaws in catering to new generations of learners. Therefore, he wants to challenge the teachers to reinvent their approaches.

Furthermore, he also shared the UP System's current mission of advancing and expanding its degree programs in Mindanao, such as the coming of the Doctor of Medicine in 2025 and the College of Engineering in the near future.

Representatives from other sectors joined the discussion to share their insights on Mindanao's development, including Michael Godinez from the People Management Association of the Philippines (PMAP), University of Mindanao (UM) president Dr. Guillermo P. Torres Jr., Dr. Maria Theresa Mokamad from USAID, and Sec. Lope B. Santos III from the National Anti-poverty Commission.

The Mindanao Development Forum 2024 aims to focus on the agenda of empowering people, sustaining prosperity, preserving the planet, nurturing peace, and fostering partnerships in Mindanao. It was organized by the Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), along with other local and foreign partner organizations.

NHA-XI and UP Mindanao teams discuss housing and land development opportunities 

National Housing Authority Regional Manager Clemente A. Dayot and engineers Shariffuddin I. Nami and Pia Noelle Z. Velasco visited UP Mindanao on July 5, 2024, to present its housing schemes for local governments and similar agencies. The NHA team explained their P25 to P50 million packages for land development or housing construction options and the beneficiary agency counterparting. The UP Mindanao administration, led by Chancellor Lyre Anni Murao and Vice-Chancellor for Administration Leo Manuel Estana, welcomed the offer and expressed interest in pursuing housing and dormitory projects for university constituents, campus informal settlers, and indigenous peoples in the UP land reservations.  The university intends to pursue the development projects for the three constituencies in parallel efforts. The Campus Planning and Development Office, headed by Asst. Prof. Architect Jean Marie Juanga, was designated to lead the project developments.  The projects align with the UP's strategic plan for good governance, UPMin's pillars for welfare and resources, and the Sustainable Development Goals for sustainable communities and other goals.
