Country: Philippines

Project Title

Strengthening Institutions and Empowering Localities Against Disasters and Climate Change (SHIELD) Programme

Project Description

The Philippines is one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia and plays an important role in the stability of the region. Environmental degradation and more frequent climatic events are likely to be key political, economic, and security disrupters over the longer term. Humanitarian crises can also undermine growth, reverse development gains, increase poverty, and cause instability that can last for decades. 

To address this challenge, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), through the support of the Government of Australia Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in the Philippines (DFAT), is implementing the Strengthening Institutions and Empowering Localities Against Disasters and Climate Change (SHIELD) Program. Australia invested AUD18 million in SHIELD.

The goal of the SHIELD Programme is to make all people in target communities safer and more resilient to the impacts of natural hazard events and climate change. This will be realized by achieving three interdependent components:

● Component 1: Government, private sector, and civil society stakeholders in targeted local government units (LGUs) are collaborating to unlock funding and implement informed and inclusive resilience actions

● Component 2: Relevant national government agencies (NGAs) are prioritizing action on local climate and disaster resilience

● Component 3: Philippine scientific agencies are producing tailored and accessible information for local resilience action

SHIELD will be implemented in 11 provinces, Metro Manila, and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM).

The second component is built upon the need to develop and strengthen an enabling environment at the national level beyond planning and financing, to accelerate climate and disaster resilience actions at the local level and improve oversight and accountability for its implementation and results. With this, SHIELD is looking at initiating policy reforms, including developing and enhancing resilience frameworks, plans, policies, and strategies, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) framework for resilience, and data ecosystems for resilient development.
