SAMBAYANIHAN: Building Resilient Communities Through Collective Action

July 17, 2026

Resilience isn't built alone. It is built together.

As disaster and climate risks grow more complex and interconnected, no single organization, agency, or sector can respond alone. Building lasting resilience requires shared commitment and co-ownership across all stakeholders.  

That's why SHIELD is rooted in partnership.

Through Sambayanihan, championed by the National Resilience Council Foundation, Inc. (NRF), government, communities, civil society, academe, and the private sector come together to design resilience solutions grounded in local realities.
