Disaster resilience starts where preparedness and awareness converge, giving students the skills to respond effectively to crises. This research investigates the gaps in student disaster awareness and preparedness, identifying challenges and seeking solutions to improve disaster resilience through the creation of the Integrated Student Disaster Resilience Framework (ISDRF). This qualitative research study utilizes a perspective approach drawn from a combination of literature reviews, expert analyses, and case studies to comprehensively examine resilience-building measures. Analyses show that although students are aware of disaster risks, they tend to lack hands-on response capabilities, institutional support mechanisms, collaborative partnerships for disaster preparedness, and access to localized preparedness planning. Addressing these shortcomings necessitates an integrative approach focusing on disaster education enhancement, the development of community partnerships, and the inclusion of technology-driven solutions within preparedness initiatives. This research contributes to establishing a sustainable and resilient culture, ensuring increased awareness and empowering students as responders in disaster situations.
