Hi, as communicated by DSWD via email, I am submitting a new FOI request for the following: 1. actual amount of disbursements of DSWD from its budget (either cash or goods) to local governments (provinces, cities, and municipalities) or to beneficiaries directly in those local governments due to natural disasters for every year (2009-2024) and for every city/municipality in the Philippines. The requested data is for each local government individually and NOT for local governments as a whole. My research requires the amounts each city. municipality and province receives as aid/DSWD support annually. 2. Any final implementation reports and final impact/situational assessments generated by the DSWD for major natural hazard / disaster events from 2009 to 2024. The following is a sampling of natural hazards over this period. If the DSWD has more, it can be added. 2009 - Typhoon Ondoy and Pepeng 2010 - Typhoon Basyang 2011 - Typhoon Pedring, Sendong 2012 - Typhoon Pablo, Negros Earthquake 2013 - Typhoon Yolanda, Bohol Earthquake 2014 - Typhoon Glenda 2015 - Typhoon Lando 2016 - Typhoon Lawin 2018 - Typhoon Ompong, Mayon Volcano eruption 2019 - Typhoon Ursula 2020 - Typhoon Rolly, Taal Volcano eruption 2021 - Typhoon Odette 2023 - Mindanao earthquake 2024 - Typhoon Carina, Trami, Kong-rey, Marce Thank you so much!
