Resilience for a better country

 

   


     Here in our country Philippines, we are experiencing a lot of calamities, it is prone to natural disasters. The Philippines has suffered from an inexhaustible number of deadly typhoons, earthquakes, volcano eruptions, and other natural disasters. This is due to its location along the Pacific Ring of Fire.

    Due to these calamities, the Philippine Government takes disaster risk seriously and has devoted significant resources to build disaster capacity and reduce population exposure and vulnerability, nationally and locally. News reporters will always be there to inform and update us on these calamities. Houses, buildings, and other structures that have been damaged will rebuild and repair. Disaster Risk Reduction (DDR) and Resilience interventions aim to reduce and mitigate the risk of displacement and increase the resilience of communities to cope with disasters.

     We, people of The Philippines, still manage to put a smile on our faces after the calamities, there goes the saying “it is more fun in the Philippines”. Unity is a must in times of calamities. We have to be united and work together to have more strength to beat our country’s disasters and problems.

    This year is an eye-opener for all of us. We've been through a lot. But I think Filipino resiliency should not always be considered in such catastrophic tragedies. Cause going through with such is difficult. It's hard to rise again from the ashes and to start a new life if all the things you have invested were be suddenly gone in just a snap of a finger.

Women then were so limited in their actions, they depend on men, they are conservative, so-called Maria Clara. In this vision of society, discrimination against women is created. We are all influenced by gender, gender norms tell us what is appropriate for boys and girls, women and men to do in society. Because of this, girls and women are often less valued and have lower social status.
