BANAGO, BACOLOD CITY – Melanie Jugos and Annie Bucado of DPC Banago, along with CPRS Chairperson Joebel Mangubat talked about their Survivor and Community-Led Response (SCLR) Project that highlighted how community participation is essential in having sustainable projects.
The SCLR projects are initiatives spearheaded by members of PCDR’s beneficiary communities. Under PCDR’s Enhancing Disaster Preparedness for Effective Response (EnPrep) Project supported by Johanniter International Assistance and Aktion Deutschland Hilft, community members formulated projects that directly address their community’s problem and capacitated themselves through directly managing their project’s implementation.
This project, a genuine manifestation of community-based disaster management, empowered community members by having them directly manage their project’s formulation until its implementation.//
