Flood warning system faces test during rainy season

BAGUIO CITY: All expected outputs have been achieved and the Summer Capital is now anchoring its own flood early warning system (FEWS) that has brought new infrastructure to the city supported by a forward-looking institutional framework built on partnerships with key stakeholders.

This was the conclusion reached during the FEWS final meeting held virtually, November 29, at the City Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office (CDRRMO) conducted by representatives of the Asean Australia Smart Cities Trust Fund (AASCTF), Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (Adfat) and Asian Development Bank (ADB), the city's program partners.
