Abstract

Floods and extreme events are increasing with the rapid urbanization and in particular with disproportionally high impacts on the poor and most vulnerable. The Philippines is one of the most populated countries and ranked high as number 2 or 3. The province of Leyte including Tacloban city was the most severely affected by Super Typhoon Haiyan in 2013. Therefore, with the review of the policy and institutional frameworks to adaptation and disaster risk reduction in the Philippines and the case study of post-disaster response after Typhoon Haiyan, this paper aims at bringing a paradigm shift to effective adaptation strategies, which combine sound governance and nature-based solutions.
