The Climate Change Adaptation – Disaster Risk Management
This project is the Manila Observatory’s pilot project for community-based, inter-program work which aims to integrate present disaster risk management concerns with long-term climate change response and overall sustainable development through capacity-building and technical assistance. The community concerned is the Mag-asawang Tubig Watershed, which is composed of Calapan City and the municipalities of Naujan , Victoria , Baco, San Teodoro, and Puerto Galera. This area is particularly vulnerable to flooding, landslides and heavy siltation brought about by the frequent episodes of extreme rainfall, as well as to earthquakes and tsunamis.
