Last September 15, 2026 the Philippine Red Cross Marikina Chapter, through the Resilience and Adaptation to Climate Hazards (REACH) Project, successfully conducted the Climate Resilience Measurement for Communities (CRMC) Intervention Planning – Stakeholder Presentation.
The activity brought together key offices, departments, and stakeholders of the Marikina City Government and partner institutions to validate and discuss the identified climate-related risks, community needs, and proposed interventions arising from the CRMC process.

At the heart of the REACH Project is a participatory and community-centered approach, recognizing that those who experience climate hazards firsthand are essential partners in identifying risks, understanding vulnerabilities, and developing practical solutions.
Through the CRMC process, community voices, local knowledge, and stakeholder perspectives are brought together to help shape interventions that are responsive to actual needs and grounded in local realities. This participatory approach strengthens ownership, encourages shared responsibility, and supports sustainable systems change beyond the project.

The DRRMO Council under Councilor Sam Ferriol, MCDRRMO, City Health Office (CHO), City Planning and Development Office (CPDO), City Environmental Management Office (CEMO), Marikina Sports Office (MSO), DepEd Marikina, PNP Marikina, together with the other invited offices and stakeholders, expressed their commitment to support the REACH Project’s plans, programs, and activities.
Their participation demonstrates the importance of multi-sectoral collaboration, meaningful community participation, and systems change in strengthening climate resilience. By bringing together government offices, communities, humanitarian organizations, and other partners, we can help ensure that climate resilience actions are inclusive, coordinated, locally informed, and responsive to the needs of the people.
