The climate crisis continues to affect the life of every Filipino, and its impacts are even more pronounced as we work towards recovering from the pandemic. This highlights the importance of addressing both the recovery from the pandemic and the ongoing climate challenges in a unified manner. Through this Climate Preparedness Portal, we aim to assist communities and local leaders in crafting informed and sustainable plans for tackling these dual crises.

The good news is the solutions we need for healthy, liveable, and climate-responsive cities already exist, as well as stories of hope and community-shared innovations. With these local, grassroots initiatives, and with everyone doing their part, we can transform our cities and communities.

Citizens, communities, and different sectors each have unique experiences, and these form our collective story. When we make ourselves heard, we inspire others to do the same, and urge our leaders to listen and act.

Sustainable Solutions for Better Cities

Solutions for better cities can be found in your localityin shops that use plastic-free packaging, bicycle repair stations, urban gardens, community pantries, green spaces, and people-centered spaces. They often have little means of promoting themselves but they’re there!

In order to achieve a #BetterCities, there is a need to facilitate and accelerate the realization of liveable, resilient, and climate-responsive Philippine cities, moving towards a green and just recovery. People mobilization and consumer demands can bring transformational changes and inspire more community-driven solutions, which can then be institutionalized.
