Join us for this informative seminar on MTE October 2025: Collaborative Resilience: Building Area-wide Business Continuity Frameworks.
Featured Speaker |
Executive Director of the Philippine Disaster Resilience Foundation (PDRF)Synopsis |
The Philippines has long faced challenges in ensuring reliable lifeline services—such as power, telecommunications, and water—whenever disasters strike. Because many of these services are privately operated, resilience depends on strong partnerships between the private sector and government.
This webinar introduces PDRF’s area-wide Business Continuity Management (BCM) approach, which integrates risk assessment and resilience frameworks with local disaster risk reduction planning. By doing so, communities and industries are better prepared to respond collectively, safeguard critical infrastructure, and ensure that recovery is not only faster but more sustainable.
Why This Webinar Matters
Traditional business continuity planning often focuses solely within the boundaries of a single organisation; however, disasters transcend industries, communities, and jurisdictions. When lifeline services fail, entire regions are affected.
This webinar highlights the shift from organisation-centric BCM to ecosystem-based resilience, where multiple stakeholders coordinate and align their strategies. It is an opportunity to understand how collaborative planning, policy support, and advanced technologies can converge to create more adaptive, connected, and resilient communities.
