ASB
Indonesia and the Philippines aims to build resilience through inclusive and
risk aware development. ASB has been working in Indonesia, in partnership with
the Indonesian Ministry of Home Affairs, since 2006. In Indonesia ASB works
directly with partners and communities, and in support of government, to
empower and build resilience through an inclusive whole-of-community approach. A
key component of the work that ASB does across the region is implementing and
promoting inclusive risk aware practice. ASB is also a founding member of the
Disability Inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction Network (DiDRRN).
PROJECT
SUMMARY:
Sendai
Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFFDRR) and 2030 Agenda place risk
management central to resilience. Risk prevention and reduction are
increasingly recognised as central to development alongside an ongoing emphasis
on preparedness for response in the SFDRR. At the same time, a broadened
understanding of risk management, under the umbrella of resilience, is proving
challenging to governments. The challenges lie in integrating key development
components, such as income generation for the poor, alongside improved
preparedness initiatives.
The
project ‘Strengthening of DRR capacities and resilience of coastal communities
in West Sumatera, therefore, seeks to link socio-economic development
activities and risk management to reduce underlying risk factors in two
districts in West Sumatera, Pesisir Selatan and the Mentawai Islands. The
project key components include capacity building for community through
institutionalised and practical integration of preparedness and livelihood
development measurements. The inclusion of most at-risk groups, i.e. women,
older people and persons with disability in the project implementation will
serve as social cohesion contributor to strengthen community resilience. The project
will also seek to support governance capacities in the two working areas.
The
project will seek synergies with government planning and programming where
possible and promote greater emphasis on risk management and inclusion of
highly at risks in line with the National Resilient Village Programme
priorities.

this project, ASB Indonesia and Philippines is seeking expression of interest
