Second, needs were classified in categories (materials, educational resources, service referrals, and collaborations).

The efforts presented illustrate the importance of community engagement from academic institutions in disasters. Research centers and research projects, particularly those with community engagement components, should consider providing support in the preparedness phase as well as the recovery phase if necessary. Community engagement in emergencies is crucial to recovery efforts as well as fostering empowerment and making an impact on individual and societal levels.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/dmp.2022.305","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,27]],"date-time":"2023-03-27T08:11:08Z","timestamp":1679904668000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Lessons Learned: Community Engagement in Emergencies in Puerto Rico"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5647-975X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Irene","family":"Lafarga Previdi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carmen M.","family":"V\u00e9lez Vega","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ana C.","family":"Guzzi Vasques","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emma","family":"Fern\u00e1ndez Repollet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H\u00e9ctor R.","family":"Torres Zayas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Akram","family":"Alshawabkeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9 F.","family":"Cordero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1935789322003056_ref11","unstructured":"11.
