Quezon City, Philippines – To acquire in-depth knowledge and to improve articulation of disaster risk reduction and management,  A-PAD Philippines staff and key personnel of Citizens’ Disaster Response Center Foundation, Inc, (CDRC) discuss various issues on the country’s disaster resiliency with DRR experts on July 7, 2016 at CDRC Conference Hall. The training is a continuation of the three-day Staff Capacity Development Program of A-PAD Philippines.

Professor Leonora Angeles of the University of British Columbia tackles international concepts and practice in Community-Based Disaster Preparedness and its implication for business and Small-Medium Enterprise (SME) involvement. She emphasizes the need for the active participation of the private sector in developing the disaster resiliency of communities.

“Creating disaster-resilient livelihoods is one of the many important roles of the business sector in disaster management and recovery,” Prof. Angeles highlighted. Financial strategy is said to be one of the major challenges of SMEs in coping with the economic setbacks caused by frequent disasters in the country.

During the afternoon session, Humanitarian Affairs Analyst of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UN-OCHA) Mr. Gil Arevalo talks about the UN Cluster System in the Philippines, Humanitarian Principles, and Partnerships and Innovations of  humanitarian organizations and stakeholders. He identifies the scope and limitations of different sectors in coordination when responding to disasters in the Philippines.

CDRC Executive Director Ms. Christie Suyin Ceres Jamoralin also takes part in the discussion by helping the staff to further understand The Sphere Standards, which is often itemized in project reports. It is stated that the Sphere is a humanitarian charter. She explains that the Sphere is the core standards of humanitarian work, and that it will serve as guiding principles for community development workers, such as CDRC, to ensure the quality of disaster response.
