THE Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI) and the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs), both attached agencies of the Department of Science and Technology (DoST), recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to strengthen research collaboration on the applications of nuclear science and technology in the fields of volcanology and seismology.
The ceremonial signing held on January 25, 2023 at the DoST-Phivolcs Auditorium in Quezon City, signals the joint initiatives of the two agencies to harmonize their efforts to address disaster risk reduction and management. This is aligned with the current administration's thrust to pursue the OneDOST4U advocacy to better improve delivery of public service.
