Coastal Cities at Risk in the Philippines: Investing in Climate and Disaster Resilience

Project DIGDI Towards Resilient Community Development

Engr. Khim Cathleen Saddi, one of the proponents of Project DIGDI, was interviewed by GMA 7 Balitang Bicolandia recently. The Disaster Resilient and Self-Sustaining House for Community Growth and Resilience Development Innovations (DIGDI) aims to create a self-sustaining, disaster-resilient house made of Recycled Coarse Aggregate Concrete (RCAC).

Project DIGDI is a collaboration between the Coastal Cities at Risk in the Philippines (CCARPH), Manila Observatory (MO), National Resilience Council (NRC), Ateneo de Manila University (AdMU), Ateneo de Naga University (AdNU), and the City Government of Naga.
