To prepare this Country DRM Note, consultations were undertaken with members of
the World Bank Philippines Country Team, the National Disaster Coordinating Council
of the Philippines, the Department of Budget Management, and the Department of
Interior and Local Government. The report builds on the Strategic National Action
Plan (2009-2019) for Strengthening Disaster Risk Reduction in the Philippines, which
the Philippine government and a broad base of stakeholders are finalizing to support
the Hyogo Framework for Action.
