This research is funded by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). Papers under the Discussion Paper Series are unedited and unreviewed.

INTRODUCTION Geologic characteristics and natural features are determinants of development. In the Philippines, where topographic variation is apparent, the level of development can be associated with the physical characteristics of an area. The pace of economic growth may be hampered as environmental processes and phenomena brought about by topographic variations pose as constraints and limitations to development initiatives in the different parts of the country. This study takes off from the influence of geography on disasters as environmental phenomena that influences the course of development. It focuses on the province of Albay and how it rises to the challenge of its geography which, because of its location and geologic character, rendered it vulnerable to risks and hazards brought about by disasters. Purposely, the study will review the institutional creation and reforms and the policies and strategies formulated for all sectors that aimed to address the negative impacts of the disasters and the vulnerability of the communities in the province.
