Who We Are
PH-Haiyan Advocacy Cooperative envisions developing Tacloban City into a model City for climate proofing (CCA) by redesigning systems around climate change defenses and emergency response. It envisage to rebuild the resiliency of our life support system (land, air and water) thru a concerted efforts of Yolanda survivors towards HEALING Tacloban City and make it SAFE against super storms and other threats of climate change.
PH-Haiyan is a survivorsโ project on how Tacloban City should build the resiliency of its interdependent systems to appropriately respond to a Megastorm like Super Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) and other extreme events brought about by climate change. It envisions strengthening the adaptive mechanism of the different ecosystems along elevation gradients following the nature-based landscape approach from Ridge-to-Reef.
It addresses the need for improving the adaptive capacity of vulnerable groups (e.g. informal settlers, fishers, urban poor, farmers, etc.) thru proper responses institutionalized by the development and implementation of plans and projects such as of early warning systems, resettlement to safer grounds, continuous trainings on disaster preparedness, response and relief operations. It shall be implemented in Tacloban City covering both the interacting biophysical and socio-economic systems where adaptation strategies are geared towards addressing the Social, Economic and Environmental conditions for a climate resilient City.
