One of these people is Alicia Ambos Barrega. As part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/partnersforresilience\/podcast-1-every-day-counts-during-covid-19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Partners for Resilience podcast series<\/a>, Anat Prag from Cordaid spoke with Alicia to shed light on what is happening in her village, outside of Cebu City in the Philippines, and to hear her hopes for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"Jagobiao Philippines\" class=\"wp-image-554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-546x363.jpg 546w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-373x248.jpg 373w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-280x186.jpg 280w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-66x44.jpg 66w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao.jpg 1185w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Jagobiao, Metro Cebu, Mandaue City, the Philippines.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Alicia is a member of the Sacred Heart Chaplaincy and the People\u2019s Alliance for a Resilient Jagobiao, both partners of Cordaid and its work in the Philippines. Alicia is passionate about increasing her village\u2019s resilience to natural disasters and has been for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through her work with the Sacred Heart Chaplaincy, Alicia and others in her community worked on projects designed to strengthen resilience in urban areas, to reduce disaster risks, and to adopt an integrated risk management approach. Alicia has helped teach her fellow community members how to develop their urban farms, plant vegetable gardens, and improve the village waste management and collection systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cOur lives, our families, and our needs are our responsibility. This means we must be prepared. We call it resilience. We are going to do good things for our family. For everyone in the community.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>These efforts aim to enable people to respond, adapt, and recover from the serious risks the region faces from time to time, like floodings, fires, and a lack of food and clean water, as well as tackling the impact of pollution and poor waste management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-828\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1-546x363.jpg 546w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1-373x248.jpg 373w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1-280x186.jpg 280w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Alicia-IRM2-900x598-1-66x44.jpg 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption> Alicia teaching the Integrated Risk Management approach in Jagobiao. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New risks and hazards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The pandemic brought along a multitude of new risks and hazards. Alicia explains that while villagers were initially fearful of the virus and worried about their health, it quickly became apparent that the social and economic impacts could be severe as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the wake of the crisis, many people in Jagobiao lost their jobs. Almost everyone (90%) relies on daily wage occupations for their income and many companies closed down. This intensified pre-existing concerns over food security and people started to wonder for how long they would still have access to their basic needs, unsure about when or how the government would intervene to provide support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cThis is the time that people and the government should be collaborating and helping each other. If people follow the instructions and executive orders, I think we can conquer COVID-19.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The emergence of alternative livelihoods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After people started losing their jobs, Jagobiao saw a shift that Alicia coined as going \u2018back to the basics\u2019. She explains: \u201cWhile they don\u2019t have any work or income, people go back to activities like fishing, planting vegetables, using dry branches of trees and wood for cooking and collecting seashells.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This helped people to continue to meet their essential needs and in some cases, it could become a complementary livelihood alongside their regular employment. Alicia says many Jagobiao residents are now combining a new \u2018corona-proof\u2019 working routine with their alternative livelihood activities: \u201cIf you work for a company 3 days a week, the rest of the days you can plant vegetables.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Alicia, the collaboration between the government and the people of the Philippines is key to overcoming COVID-19. \u201cThis is the time that people and the government should be collaborating and helping each other. If everyone follows the instructions and executive orders, I think we can conquer COVID-19.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hope for the future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked about her hopes for the future, Alicia answers: \u201cI wish to see people become resilient, to see them being equipped with knowledge and that they will be able to help themselves to survive in times of crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She emphasized the importance of the Filipino Purok system in achieving this, not just for a select few, but for every single resident of Jagobiao.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-830\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1-546x363.jpg 546w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1-373x248.jpg 373w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1-280x186.jpg 280w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Jagobiao-mural-900x598-1-66x44.jpg 66w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption> A mural painted in Jagobiao, capturing the spirit of the community.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Purok system is a clustering of the community. This means you divide a community into smaller clusters. It is the easiest way to gather people, to teach them and to identify the most vulnerable. The system allows you to do local planning in a much larger setting so that everyone is catered to.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mitigation and economic resilience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Five months into the pandemic, Alicia and other urban farmers in Jagobiao are not only growing food for themselves and their families; as a part of the COVID-19 response of Cordaid and Partners for Resilience, they have successfully worked on mitigation and established economic resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are teaching new communities surrounding Jagobiao how to expand urban farming and are selling the harvest from their own city farms to provide food baskets to support other families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the last week, urban farmers in Jagobiao earned 864 USD from selling vegetables, and the demand is increasing. Developing alternative income-generating activities in the face of COVID-19 is an important strategy, especially when the lost jobs might never return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hear more stories like Alicia\u2019s by following <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partnersforresilience.nl\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Partners for Resilience<\/a>, or read more about Cordaid\u2019s work in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cordaid.org\/en\/countries\/the-philippines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Philippines<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The pictures in this article were taken before the coronavirus outbreak.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">DISCLAIMER<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Cordaid is no longer operational in the Philippines <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After COVID-19 hit, people in Jagobiao (The Philippines) started coming together with local officials to support each other and stop the virus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":554,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"topic_tax":[16],"country_tax":[19],"class_list":["post-552","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","topic_tax-cordaid","country_tax-philippines"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
