Rationale:
In an age characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), we need a research and extension agenda that aims for resilience, optimism, and sustainability. CREATES, UP Cebu\u2019s integrated research and extension agenda, is targeted towards achieving resilience and sustainability in the Central Visayas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
