Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation (DRR-CCA) particularly in health is a significant contributor in inclusive and sustainable development of a nation such as the Philippines which is one of the many countries that experience natural disasters. The Council’s DRR-CCA Program prioritizes research activities that are related to: (1) Identification and characterization of climate sensitive and/or climate related diseases; (2) Food security and nutrition during disasters especially for the vulnerable populations; and (3) S&T based innovations in building resilient health systems during disasters.
