Holcim Philippines, recently partnered with Build Change Philippines, an organization focused on building disaster-resilient homes in developing nations, to strengthen local structures against natural calamities.

The parties agreed to work together to support areas impacted by super Typhoon Odette in 2021, via disaster-resilient housing projects.

This includes endeavors to build or retrofit houses, schools, and evacuation centers for disaster resilience and capacity-builiding through training and advocacy of policies or financing strategies to key stakeholders.

Both organizations also committed to develop a scalable affordable housing program, in collaboration with other key stakeholders like microfinance institutions to increase access to affordable, disaster-resilient homes, particularly for the more vulnerable segments of society.

At the signing ceremony were (left to right): Build Change Philippines program officer Marvin Daryl Riego; country director Arnel Capili; Holcim Philippines senior vice president and chief sustainability officer Zoe Sibala, and vice president for communications and corporate social responsibility Cara Ramirez.

Manila Standard

Manila Standard website (manilastandard.net), launched in August 2002, extends the newspaper’s reach beyond its traditional readers and makes its brand of Philippine news and opinion available to a much wider and geographically diverse readership here and overseas.

Digital Edition

In tone and content, the online edition mirrors the editorial thrust of the newspaper. While hewing to the traditional precepts of fairness and objectivity, MS believes the news of the day need not be staid, overly long or dry. Stories are succinct, readable and written in a lively style that has become a hallmark of the newspaper.
