After a string of powerful typhoons swept across the Philippines from September to November 2024: a father rebuilds, a grandmother provides, a man with disability survives days stranded on his roof. In the country’s southernmost island, amid conflict and compounding disasters, people continue to hope.

These are stories of survival and strength, from Batangas, Nueva Ecija, Camarines Sur, and Mindanao, from communities supported by timely, dignified humanitarian aid.

Gathered through the EU Humanitarian Aid-funded ACCESS Project.
