Understanding the Legal Mandates for
DRRM and LCCA planning
Based on the most recent
developments in the global
efforts to solve climate
change,
we are in for a very
challenging future

MEANS OF IMPLEMENTATION
• 2011 to 2028
• address urgent and
immediate needs and
concerns relating to the
dangerous consequences of
climate change to
vulnerable sectors such
as agriculture, water
resources, ecosystems,
humans and infrastructure
services
• Keeping the Promise in the
President’s Social Contract
• Adopted 11-22-11
NCCAP:
Ultimate Goal
Build the adaptive capacities
of women and men in their
communities, increase the
resilience of vulnerable
sectors and natural
ecosystems to climate
change, and optimize
mitigation opportunities
towards gender-responsive
and rights-based sustainable
development

natural ecosystems, and
sustainability of built
environment to climate change.
Successful
transition
towards
climate-smart
development.
Ultimate Outcomes
How do we
localize climate action?
Key Directions
LGUs located within Ecotowns to
be areas of priorities for
green growth investment and
payment for ecological services
(PES)
Comprehensive National
Vulnerability and
Adaptation Assessment
& Climate Risk Analysis
National Natural
Resource
Accounting (Total Economic
Valuation)
Establish the Ecotowns in Key
Biodiversity Areas (sensitive forest,
coastal and marine ecosystems,
small islands, food baskets)
The whole
National
Budget as Climate Change
Adaptation Budget
CCT+CCA with protection
of natural resources as the
condition
Climate Financing for
Adaptation
+
To manage the unavoidable and
avoid the unmanageable
Local Climate Change Action Plan
LGUs as
frontline
agencies
Barangays to be directly
involved with LGUs in
prioritizing CCA and DRR
issues
CCA and DRR to become a
regular function of municipal
and city LGUs
Is adaptation all
about climate
change
Adaptation is
about
paradigm
shifts
It is a useless life that is not
consecrated to a great ideal.
