Network analysis of actors working to support disaster preparedness and resilience in the Philippines
The purpose of this network analysis research had two goals:
- To understand the relationships among actors supporting disaster preparedness and resilience work in the Philippines
- And to develop a representation of the disaster preparedness and resilience system in the Philippines through a depiction of the structure and characteristics of the relationships among the actors that make up the system.
In this report, the network analysis and methods used are presented along with the findings and recommendations for HHI and other in-country partners about how these results can inform programs to strengthen disaster resilience and climate change in the Philippines.
Find here some of the main findings:
- the enumeration process in the Philippines identified a total of 501 actors working to support disaster preparedness and resilience in the country. Figure 3 shows a visualization of the full network.
- Of these organizations, 114 did not have connections to any other organizations. We call these organizations isolates, as they are working in isolation from others in the network.
- The research shows there were 446 unique relationships, meaning a relationship from one organization to another disregarding redundancy caused by collaboration areas.
- This means that on average, each organization went to another organization for seven different collaboration areas.
