Introduction

Country:   Philippines

 

Description of the Assignment:  

I. Project Title

Strengthening Institutions and Empowering Localities Against Disasters and Climate Change (SHIELD) Programme

II. Project Description

The Strengthening Institutions and Empowering Localities Against Disasters and Climate Change (SHIELD) Program is a six-year initiative implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) through the support of the Government of Australia (GOA) Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in the Philippines (DFAT), to assist the Government of the Philippines (GPH) in building the country’s institutional and community resilience to climate change and disasters. Together with its consortium partners, the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat), Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP), National Resilience Council (NRC), and Consortium of Bangsamoro Civil Society (CBCS), SHIELD aims to transform its 11 target provinces, Metro Manila, and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) into safer and resilient communities by achieving three interdependent outcomes:

Outcome 1: Government, private sector, and civil society stakeholders in targeted local government units (LGUs) are collaborating to unlock funding and implement informed and inclusive resilience actions

Outcome 2: Relevant national government agencies (NGAs) are prioritizing action on local climate and disaster resilience

Outcome 3: Philippine scientific agencies are producing tailored and accessible information for resilience action

The third outcome is built upon the need to generate more accurate and sophisticated scientific and technical information that will enable localities to understand and build resilience to the impacts on people, their businesses, critical assets, and livelihoods throughout the country. Intended to support the realization of Outcomes 1 and 2, it aims to ensure the availability, credibility, and accessibility of various datasets and information relevant to climate change, hazards, and disasters which can provide essential inputs for local resilience planning and proposal development. In doing so, the Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) will be working hand in hand with the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) to develop and apply sound climate modeling, projections, and scenarios, and improve hazard and risk assessment coordination and accessibility of data.

 

In line with this, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), the Service Institute of the DOST mandated to mitigate disasters that may arise from volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, and other related geotectonic phenomena, will lead the development of the PlanSmart for Provincial Development and Physical Framework Plan (PDPFP) together with the Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) under the SHIELD Programme to support risk-informed land use and development planning at the provincial level.
