Rationale:
Republic Act No. 9729 (Climate Change Act of 2009), as amended by R.A. No.
10174 (Peoples Survival Fund Act of 2012), and R.A. No. 10121 (Philippine
Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act of 2010), require climate and
disaster-proofing of all government policies, plans and programs for the prevention
of climate-related events and other disasters. This requirement calls for top to

Vision, Mission,
Goals & Objectives
Vision
Establishing robust Public-PrivatePartnerships (PPPs), the LCCAD
is envisioned as a dedicated Center
for Excellence for developing
new competencies for integrating
Climate Change Adaptation
(CCA) and Disaster Risk and
Vulnerability Reduction (DRVR)
for local developments. A synergy
of strategies is within reach to the
emergence of resource efficient
climate resilient communities that
render low carbon footprints relevant
to globally recognized contributions
in addressing specific challenges
faced by the stakeholders in the
micro, the meso, as well as the macro
scale level. The LCCAD firmly
believes that the science of CCA &
DRVR must be everybodys task and
obligation. Thus without exemption,
CCA & DRVR are not the mere
outcome of instinctive processes but
rather due to deeper, more prompt
and expedient scientific approaches

Mission
To provide scientific moorings
for climate adaptive localities,
practical experiences and best
practices in DRVR and climate
change impact management that
will be shared with LGUs, the
frontline agencies for climate change
risk s management. the LCCAD
contributes to addressing some of
specific chanllenges faced by the
localities in the Bicol region and other
parts of the Philippines. It initiates
and supports the implementaton
of selected projects in the short,
medium to long term developments
by helping to secure their funding.
The strategies will finally develop
common positions on climate
change demostrating leadership and
strong commitment to action in the
bottom-up approach starting from the
barangays linking the three-scaled
levels of stakeholders profiles. The
LCCAD stimulates impulses to
spur enthusiastic participation in
the multi-sectoral accessibilty of
CCA-DRVR for all walks of life both
from government institutions and
non-government organizations and
the combination of these avenues.
