Overview of Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation – Disaster Risk Reduction
Climate Change Commission [Official] 
Brief overview of climate change adaptation and mitigation and its linkage to disaster risk reduction.
Strengthening the mainstreaming of climate change in domestic plans and programs necessitates allocation of public funds for the implementation of climate change adaptation and mitigation measures. The Climate Change Commission (CCC) and Department of Budget and Management (DBM) institutionalized Climate Change Expenditure Tagging (CCET) through DBM-CCC JMC 2015-01. The CCET enables for national institutions (i.e. National Government Agencies (NGAs), State Universities and Colleges (SUCs), and Government Owned- and Controlled-Corporations (GOCCs)) to assess the alignment and scale of mobilization of public funds based to the National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP). The CCET classifies public expenditures between climate change adaptation and mitigation though typologies mirroring the NCCAP.
On 21-24 February 2022, the CCC, in coordination with the DBM and the DENR (in harmony with the Risk Resiliency Program), conducted a virtual orientation to provide clear, concise, and up-to-date information to national government budget officers and climate change technical representatives on climate change and CCET as an integral part of the national budget preparation.
