Responding to floods and typhoon in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao
2025Also available in:
No results found.The Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) in the Philippines faces persistent socioeconomic and environmental challenges. In 2020, 81 percent of the population could not meet basic needs, and by 2021, the poverty rate stood at 29.8 percent – more than twice the national average. Decades of conflict, despite a 2014 peace agreement, continue to drive displacement and disrupt livelihoods. The region is also highly vulnerable to natural hazards, including floods, landslides and earthquakes, further exacerbating food insecurity and economic instability.Agriculture remains central to BARMM’s economy, employing 60.4 percent of the workforce. However, shocks such as the COVID-19 pandemic and extreme weather events have severely affected the sector. While BARMM recorded a lower COVID-19 infection rate than the national average, the economic repercussions were significant. In 2022, Typhoon Nalgae (Paeng) caused extensive damage, affecting 557 000 people, displacing 102 000, and devastating homes, infrastructure and agricultural activities – especially in Maguindanao.This good practice factsheet documents two FAO interventions implemented between April 2021 and December 2022 to support farmers, fishers and their households. The first intervention expanded social protection coverage to those not receiving assistance to mitigate the socioeconomic impacts of COVID-19. The second enhanced flood response efforts by temporarily increasing assistance to affected farmers and fishers through BARMM’s social protection system. These initiatives demonstrate the potential of risk-informed, shock-responsive social protection in strengthening resilience and reducing poverty in crisis-prone regions. -
