  • Community-Based Disaster Risk Management in the Philipines
    Forschungswerkstatt Research Workshop Community-Based Disaster Risk Management in the Philip- pines: Achievements and Challenges of the Purok System Angelina Matthies ► Matthies, A. (2017). Community-based disaster risk management in the Philippines: Achievements and challenges of the purok system. Austrian Journal of South-East Asian Studies, 10(1), 101-108. The purok system in the Philippines is promoted as a voluntary self-organization at the sub-village level which strengthens community resilience to natural hazards. In 2011, the system received the UN Sasakawa Award and gained prominence among the practitio- ner community. Based on a qualitative study in the municipality of San Francisco (Cebu province) from December 2014 to March 2015, the article elaborates on the achievements and challenges of the purok system. Striking merits encompass efficient and effective- in formation dissemination and evacuation measurements between all levels of political ad- ministration that stem from the system’s remarkable enforcement of human and social capital. This is underpinned by a clear determination of roles and responsibility that is subsumed under the concept of accountability. However, the purok system faces inter- nal challenges of maintenance and implies profound conceptual ambiguities regarding the notion of voluntarism and capabilities that favor clientelism. Nevertheless, the pu- rok system clearly distinguishes itself from conventional community-based disaster risk management practices and implies potentials that are highly beneficial for strengthening resilience in disaster prone areas. Keywords: Community-Based Disaster Risk Management; Purok System; Resilience; Social Capital; Voluntarism INTRODUCTION Due to its geographic location as well as its socio-economic conditions, the Phil- ippines is one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world and ranks third www.seas.at doi 10.14764/10.ASEAS-2017.1-7 www.seas.at out of 171 countries in the World Risk Report 2016 (Welle & Birkmann, 2016, p.
