The Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) XII conducts various Information, Education and Communication (IEC) activity campaigns to promote its programs and services on the Mineral Resources Development and Geosciences.

One of the recent IEC conducted was during the ‘Duterte Legacy: Barangayanihan Caravan’ in Region XII. It is said to be a collaboration with government agencies, as well as volunteers from the Global Coalition of Advocacy Support Groups and Force Multipliers. The campaign aims to inform the public about the government’s programs, policies, accomplishments, and efforts to bring about real change to the lives of the Filipino people by showcasing real stories from the beneficiaries in their respective localities of the administration’s landmark policies and programs.

To raise awareness on the protection and conservation of our environment particularly the water resources, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) XII participated in the simultaneous regionwide coastal clean-up in celebration of the Month of the Ocean (MOO) 2022 with the theme “Protect and Restore Ecosystems and Biodiversity” on May 18, 2022 in Brgy. Kawas, Province of Sarangani. 

The activity was led by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) XII together with the various National Government Agencies, Local Government Units, and other stakeholders in Region XII.

Based on the Daily Weather Forecast from PAGASA issued at 4:00AM of May 14, 2022, SOCCSKSARGEN will have partly cloudy to cloudy skies with scattered rainshowers and thunderstorms due to ITCZ. Severe thunderstorms may trigger landslides in elevated and mountainous areas and wide-spread flooding along low-lying areas adjacent to river systems. Flash floods are also possible along hilly to mountainous areas with narrow streams and rivers. Low-lying coastal municipalities and barangays within the region may experience inundation due to light to moderate southeast to south winds with slight to moderate (0.6 to 1.2 meters) wave heights.

This Office encourages the Local Disaster Risk Reduction Management Offices (LDRRMOs) in the region to refer to the MGB-XII geohazard maps and information in identifying safe areas for evacuation and appropriate evacuation routes. Utilization of these maps and data to properly inform residents living in geologically hazardous areas to take precautionary measures is highly encouraged.
