Towards a Resilient Philippines




The Philippines is one of the top countries in the world at risk of climate-related disasters. For populations subsisting at the poverty line in particular, but also the nation as a whole, daily lives and wellbeing are routinely challenged. An archipelago of over 7,100 islands, the Philippines is the fourth most at-risk country in the world in terms of climate-related natural disasters, such as typhoons, sea level rise, flooding and extreme temperature. It is one of the top three countries in the world for population. 




The last months of the year spur preparations for the year end holiday festivities, but they also come with a premonition of devastating tropical cyclones that frequent the region. The Philippines has made significant progress in the areas of disaster risk reduction and climate action, and now looks to strengthen resilience in response and outcome. Risk informed planning and development leverages the use of real time data and fast evolving digital, mobile, and satellite technologies that mush link to provide accurate information, early warning, and risk informed protocols and regulations.
