本研究旨在调查社区在灾后恢复和建设复原力中的作用，以回答以下问题：“社区在灾后恢复过程中的作用是什么？各利益攸关方在社区主导的灾后恢复中发挥什么作用？基于社区的灾后恢复是否受到危害和灾害的影响，或受到社区社会经济发展水平的影响？“为了回答这些问题，在塔克洛班、伊利甘、达古潘和马里基纳市的12个镇测试了五个假设。通过审查他们的文件，采访市政府官员，并进行涉及镇官员和居民的焦点小组讨论，对这些案件进行了调查。这些都是使用非结构化问卷和灾难复原力社区指数检查表进行的，该指数用于计算镇的复原力水平。该研究发现，灾难恢复的社区治理似乎停留在NDRRMC（国家灾害风险减少和管理）之前的几年，因为恢复规划仍然是被动和被动的。它还发现，复原力是随着时间的推移而建立的，但如果重要的复苏部门（例如，该研究建议，作为经济有效的灾后恢复政策、计划和项目，应制定灾前恢复规划、公共服务连续性计划和将人们从灾害易发社区搬迁到安全地区的法律。除其他外，建议进一步测试抗灾社区指数并扩大研究的覆盖范围，以供进一步研究。
This research aims to investigate the role of communities in disaster recovery and in building resilience to answer the questions: "What is the role of community in the disaster recovery process? What roles do various stakeholders play in community-led disaster recovery? Is community-based disaster recovery affected by exposure to hazards and disasters, or by the community`s level of socioeconomic development?" To answer these questions, five hypotheses were tested in the 12 barangays from Tacloban, Iligan, Dagupan, and Marikina Cities. The cases were investigated by reviewing their documents, interviewing city government officials, and conducting focus group discussions involving barangay officials and residents. These were all conducted with the use of unstructured questionnaires and checklists for the Disaster-Resilient Community Index, which was used to compute the level of resilience of the barangays. The study found that community governance for disaster recovery seems to be stuck in the pre-NDRRMC (National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management) years because recovery planning is still passive and reactive. It also found that resilience is built through time, but it may be delayed if important recovery sectors (e.g., housing and livelihood) are neglected; this makes people (especially the poor who are always the hardest hit in dangerous areas) feel exposed and vulnerable to hazards and disasters.The study recommends the enactment of laws on predisaster recovery planning, public service continuity plans, and relocating people from disaster-prone communities to safer areas as cost-efficient recovery policy, plans, and project. Among others, further testing of the Disaster-Resilient Community Index and widening of the coverage of the study are suggested for further research.
