Every year, about 20 typhoons hit the Philippines with up to 5 being destructive ones. Despite the regularity at which calamities like these hit the country, substantial losses to life and property continue. Is there a better way to help vulnerable Filipinos to not just become even more resilient but also be more protected against natural calamities like typhoons? In our first episode, we feature a potentially game-changing approach to disaster risk management: the B-READY Project. In this conversation with Angat Pilipinas' Seph Romana, Oxfam Pilipinas' Senior Manager for Programs & Partnerships Maria Theresa "Niña" Abogado will tell us more about a new approach to preparing for calamities: pre-disaster cash transfers.
