The Battle for Marawi took a heavy toll on infrastructure, including health facilities and hospitals, and private property in the city quarter where the battle was concentrated. This project aims to support and facilitate the prevention of noncommunicable diseases within communities affected by disasters.
Given the urban context in the Philippines, the goal of this action is to increase preparedness and risk reduction capacities of local populations and government units through replication and scaling up of interrelated urban resilience struggles on alternative temporary shelter and resilient livelihood in hazard-prone, urban poor communities.
In the Philippines, increasing urbanization has resulted in the lack of appropriate and sufficient shelter. The Alternative Temporary Shelter Systen (ATS) addresses the shelter needs of affected populations in the initial stages of disasters to guarantee human dignity and sustain family and community life.
Resilient livelihoods as a practice has evolved through various humanitarian actions in response to typhoons Bopha and Haiyan, with theoretical and practical contribution from other humanitarian and disaster risk reduction, climate change adaptation, and ecosystem management and restoration (also referred to as integrated risk management) projects.
