Mission

Citizens' Disaster Response Center (CDRC) is a non-government organization that pioneered and continues to promote community-based disaster management in the Philippines. CDRC operates nationwide through a network of regional centers affiliated with the Citizens’ Disaster Response Network and through people’s organizations.

Organized in 1984, CDRC focuses its assistance to the most affected, least served and most vulnerable sectors of the population through preparedness and mitigation, emergency relief, and rehabilitation programs.

Voluntary Commitments

The Sendai Framework Commitments (SFVC) online platform serves to incentivize stakeholders to inform the public about their work, to provide a vehicle for sharing commitments and initiatives and for motivation toward the implementation of the Sendai Framework. In turn, UNDRR can monitor and take stock of the progress and impact.

Citizens' Disaster Response Center is involved in the following commitments:

National (or local) - Kenya, Madagascar, Mozambique, Haiti, Philippines
Completed
Localised Preparedness for More Effective Response with Affected Communities
To enable civil society organisations (CSOs) and faith-based organisations (FBOs) to establish localised preparedness and response systems and capacities to respond more effectively in collaboration with affected communities and populations.
