Within and Beyond UMAK: Standing Out in a VUCA World (A Synthesis)

Abstract:

After more than two years in the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Department of Health (2023) reported on December 1, 2022, that there are only 7295 cases in the country, which is a big drop from 200,179 cases on January 6, 2022, the highest peak of cases of the year. A total of 165,968,423 Filipinos have already been vaccinated, with 70,964,254 who have already received their first dose, and 21,211,159 having booster shots (Department of Health, 2022). Together with the 7.6% GDP Growth in the 3rd Quarter of 2022, one could already say that the country is starting to get out of the woods.
