Summary
In 2024, the Philippines endured an active typhoon season with six back-to-back tropical cyclones that successively impacted the Luzon Island Group in 25 days. The first cyclone, severe tropical storm Kristine (international name: Trami), triggered widespread flooding and landslides. This was soon followed by five typhoons that compounded damages in barely recovered areas of Bicol, Cagayan Valley, Central Luzon, Cordillera Administrative Region, and Ilocos Region. As one of the Philippine Government’s longstanding partners in emergencies, WFP was among the first to support the Government to respond in the immediate aftermath of the typhoons. This report provides a comprehensive overview of how WFP worked with national and local authorities and communities to augment the Government-led response through damage and needs assessments, cash assistance, logistics, and telecommunications support. Primarily through national social protection programmes, WFP provided cash assistance for 151,350 people in five priority provinces: Albay, Aurora, Cagayan, Camarines Sur, and Catanduanes. With WFP’s transport support, the Government provided close to 318,000 family food packs (FFPs) and non-food items to 1.6 million people to meet their food and other urgent needs.
