Documentary: Together We Stand After Yolanda

Super Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) left 4 million people homeless. An estimated 14,433 families were displaced in Tacloban alone. 

As of September 15, 2016, only 8% of the total target of the National Housing Authority in Tacloban have moved to permanent resettlement sites. 

How are survivors doing three years after the storm? These are their stories. 

As the country remembers the third anniversary of Haiyan, climate experts and world leaders are gathered in Morocco for the 22nd Conference of Parties (COP22) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change to discuss how the Paris climate agreement would be implemented. It is the first major summit since the treaty was adopted in Paris in December 2015. 

The Philippines is one of the most climate-vulnerable countries in the world. It is imperative that the implementation of the climate deal ensures that resources would be allocated to help vulnerable countries build their resilience and adapt to climate change.
