Makati City hosted CityNet Disaster Cluster Seminar
The 15th CityNet Disaster Cluster Seminar (15th CNDC) has been held in Makati city in Philippines during June 7-8, 2023. The CNDC was hosted by Makati City as a Lead of CityNet Disaster Cluster. Ms. Mar-Len Abigail S. Binay, Mayor from Makati City Government had welcomed the participants.
The seminar was the first step towards strengthening the engagement of the cluster members, so that they become resilience leaders in their own ways with a higher purpose of influencing other cities and organizations, whether members of CityNet or not, towards achieving the climate and disaster resilience goals of SDG, SFDRR, and COP21/COP25. As the first major cluster activity under new leadership, this seminar launched and gathered inputs on the Disaster Cluster Plan for 2023-2026.
The event also included field observation in two Barangays of Makati and Earthquake Simulation exercise.
