The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council, through the National Gawad KALASAG Committee, conferred the Gawad KALASAG Seal of Excellence to the Municipality of Cainta as Fully Compliant last December 7 at The Manila Hotel, Metro, Manila. The plaque was received by MDRRMO Head Mr. Eric Erevalo.

This served as the country’s recognition and award scheme for various stakeholders who promote and implement disaster risk reduction and management, climate change adaptation (DRRM-CCA), and humanitarian assistance programs that protect and shield high-risk communities against extreme hazards and render them more capable of addressing their vulnerabilities.
