The staff of the Bangsamoro Development Agency (BDA Inc.) and Community and Family Services International (CFSI) participated in an Operation Listo orientation in Cotabato City, on September 2-3, 2024 aimed at equipping participants to assist LGUs in creating comprehensive barangay disaster risk reduction and management (BDRRM) plans, according to a BDA social media post.
The orientation focused on integrating quality assurance into the BDRRM plans and promoting community involvement and education in disaster preparedness and response.
The activity is further aimed to integrate in the BDRRM plan quality assurance system and promote strategies for involving and educating the community on disaster preparedness and response.
Launched in 2013, Operation Listo is a program initiated by the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) in the Philippines aimed at enhancing disaster preparedness and response at the local level.
The program seeks to ensure that LGUs have effective disaster preparedness plans in place. This includes the development of contingency plans, conducting regular drills, and establishing clear communication protocols.
Experts on disaster risk reduction from the Ministry of Interior and Local Government (MILG) of the Bangsamoro Government led the said orientation.
DRR/CCA is part of the sub-components of the Community Development Assistance (CDA) of the Bangsamoro Camps Transformation Project (BCTP) that aims to enhance beneficiaries' understanding and ability to implement practical adaptive measures for addressing natural hazards and climate change impacts.
The BCTP, implemented by BDA Inc. in partnership with CFSI and in collaboration with the Joint Task Forces on Camps Transformation (JTFCT), supports the normalization efforts of the Philippine government and MILF in the six major MILF camps: Abubakar, Badre, Bilal, Bushra, Rajamuda, and Omar.
It is one of the projects funded by the Bangsamoro Normalization Trust Fund (BNTF), administered by the World Bank.
