The Philippines is increasingly exposed
and vulnerable to natural hazards, which undermines poverty
reduction and long-term growth. Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan),
which struck the Philippines in 2013, is considered the
strongest typhoon ever to make landfall. Typhoon Yolanda has caused over 6,300
reported fatalities and an additional 2.3 million people were estimated to have fallen below the
poverty line. The total damage and loss was estimated at PHP 571.1 billion (USD 12.9 billion)
hampering economic growth by about 0.9 % in 2013, and another 0.3 % in 2014. The event highlighted the following major issues on the
side of government and all other non-government actors: coordination at all levels, aid transparency
and accountability, systems and protocols for donations and assistance, conduct of post-disaster
needs assessment, recovery planning, implementation, monitoring, and communications. |
