Background: The intricate complexity surrounding depression might be grounded from cultural subtlety. The protracted base of depression has ignited interest on deeper understanding and finding the relevant management that might be deeply embedded in cultures. Therefore, to bring light to this might counteract the burgeoning prevalence and impact of depression across different culture. Methods: Ethnographic design was employed with interviewing a total of 41 participants. The participants are traditional healers, local cultural experts, writers of books, local religious leaders, and with the age ranging 46-85 years old and all have personally witnessed and/or performed cultural practices on depression. To enhance the richness of the study, crystallization of data gathering were done that is including structured interview, field notes (immersion), focus group discussions, documentary analysis, and observational analysis.

Based on official reports by government and non-government agencies, Typhoon Mangkhut affected around 1.4 million people across Regions I (Ilocos), II (Cagayan Valley), III (Central Luzon), and the Cordillera Autonomous Region (CAR). Key Assessment Findings: The WASH Cluster partners have conducted assessments from Day 1 and have since been responding to the emergency needs of the affected population through the leadership of the Department of Health (DOH). Some of the key assessment findings are: • Most of the affected population are using Level I and II water systems (handpumps and deep well). These systems were either heavily damaged, destroyed, or have temporarily become non-functional. Some water sources have not undergone bacteriological testing even before the typhoon. • Level III or piped water systems in some municipalities like Gattaran in Cagayan are dependent on electricity. Because there is no electricity in some areas, people are looking for other sources of water or buying bottled water (additional expense). • Out of the assessed areas, 12 municipalities have reported that houses were partially/totally damaged, along with their toilet facilities. People expressed their need for support in repairing toilet bowls, walls and roofing. • In Barangay Siniking in Rizal and some areas of Sto.Nino both in Cagayan, open defecation were observed.
