The dynamic team from WCC Aeronautical & Technological College - North Manila, consisting of Prof. Lersan Del Mundo, Academic Dean, and Prof. Eric Curay, Community Extension Service Office (CESO) Coordinator, proudly announces their international recognition for presenting the Best Paper at the International Convention on Information Technology and Communication Engineering (İCITACE) held in Hanoi, Vietnam last November 14-15, 2023.

The winning paper, titled 'iHANDA,' stood out among 24 entries from local and foreign submissions. It focuses on ensuring the availability and access to multi-hazards early warnings and disaster risk information for communities. Aligned with two Sustainable Development Goals, the Sendai Framework, and Ambisyon Natin 2040, the project successfully established a shared and immutable database within the existing barangay management information system. This database facilitates early warnings and service requests, encompassing vital aspects such as medical assistance, logistics, food, shelter, and more.

The presenters, Prof. Del Mundo and Prof. Curay express their gratitude to the College of Information Technology, CESO, and the institution for the support given to the project.

The International Convention on Information Technology and Communication Engineering (İCITACE) facilitates global discussions on the progressive developments that drive the world forward. The convention welcomes professionals, academics, students, aspiring researchers, and industry experts to delve into the latest advancements and contribute to the ongoing technological revolution.

This recognition reaffirms our commitment to excellence in the realms of Information Technology and Communication Engineering, propelling our institution to continually advance technology and contribute to global progress.

Congratulations!
