The United States government, through the US Agency for International Development , is providing more than P450-million in additional funding to strengthen disaster preparedness and response in vulnerable communities in the Philippines, said the US Embassy in a news release.
It will also fund partnerships with the private sector to help ensure the continuity of businesses and other critical services, such as energy and water, after disasters. The US agency will work with local government units in Eastern Samar and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao to set up referral systems for children’s welfare and protection during disasters.
“We are proud of our partnership with the Philippine government to help the Filipino people prepare for and respond to disasters,” he added.
