The National Water Resources Board (NWRB) has been partnering with the Department of Science and Technology (DoST) through the Philippine Council for Industry, Energy and Emerging Technology Research and Development ( PCIEERD) to implement various programs and efforts to help government in monitoring the conditions of the country's water resources.
In the recent episode of the DoST Report broadcast on June 4, Dr. Sevillo David, executive director of NWRB, shared that DoST-PCIEERD and his agency agreed to work together toward the program called Climate Resilient Initiative, which aims to provide science-based information that can be used in planning for critical infrastructure while considering the effects of climate change and creating steps to attain effective disaster risk reduction initiatives.
