I recently had the pleasure of conversing with Philippine Coast Guard officers who are assigned the challenging task of implementing disaster response in coastal communities, particularly evacuation. This prompted me to share our research on non-evacuation decision-making during the 3-meter storm surge of Typhoon Yolanda/Haiyan, which I'm also sharing here. This is a chapter from the book "Disaster Archipelago" edited by Carin Alejandria (UBD) and Will Smith (Deakin) which can be accessed here: tinyurl.com/mrx3ywz4

In this design anthropology x cognitive science piece we trace non-evacuation decision-making before & during typhoon impact. We resist the idea that non-evacuees are "hardheaded" and "irrational" by examining the cultural logic and embodied nature of their decision-making.

Two findings that caught our team's attention:
2 findings that caught our attention:
1. The gendered nature of non-evacuation: the decision to stay in many families was made by men who took pride in the craftmanship of their home. Leaving meant admitting their craftsmanship failed.
2. The importance of lateral thinking, frequently associated with formally trained designers. Many survived the storm surge by quickly spotting the alternative affordances of household items: TV stands = ladders, basin = lifeboat for infant, refrigerators and plastic water containers = lifebuoy.

The study also briefly traces the policy changes and improvements made in disaster management at the household and national level in the aftermath of the typhoon.

Epilogue: While significant strides have been made in disaster responsive, Philippine DRR remains reactive with an average of 60% of local government resources allocated for relief (Brucal, 2020). We're improving but still a long way to go in terms of shifting towards a proactive and long-term rather than a reactive and short-term orientation.

"Acts of God! Natural Disasters - all phrases we hear so often.. but does nature cause disasters, or do we do as a society?", asks Dr Emmanuel Raju, a social scientist working to untangle the drivers of disasters. Emmanuel emphasises that, instead of blaming nature, we as a society need to invest in measures, that are proactive and inclusive.

Just concluded a well-attended 2-day disaster governance conference & workshop that took ages to get off the ground. Research grant on decision-making within complex disasters approved. Got looped into a feminist creative writing project on disaster management. Today was a good day! ๐Ÿ˜Š

We invite you to 'Governing Covid as a Complex Disaster in SEA' on Dec 7 Wednesday. I'll discuss my ethnographic PhD project on small island fisherfolk experiences of post disaster housing reconstruction & flood adaptation.

Pleased to share the floor with Adam Levine (Brown University Center for Human Rights and Humanitarian Studies) & Enzo Bollettino (Harvard Resilient Cities) who both kindly supported my research in its early stages.

Sharing my latest book chapter ftom "Complex Disasters" edited by Anna Lukaciewicz and Tayannah O'Donnell.

Using ethographic case studies focused on the lives of small-island fisherfolk in Manila Bay, I analyse kinship practices involving ritual kin (e.g., "ninong" [godfathers] & neighbors) as political acts that respond to 3 interrelated citizenship regimes in postdisaster reconstruction:

1. The regime of localism that shifts the burden of responsibility to local actors with little concern for the unequal distribution of vulnerabilities

2. The response regime in disaster management, where majority of local government resources are allocated to rescue and relief, with little left for long-term disaster risk mitigation

3. The "palakasan" system underpimned by the search for power beyond the rule of law (to obtain scarce resources for housing reconstruction in cash and/or in kind).

The findings demonstrate how kinship practices, as both a resource & challenge for disaster-affected fisherfolk, contribute to protracted disasters, a type of complex disaster.
