ARGENTE, JERLYN D., ASTILLA, JOYCE ANN MARIE R., BASAHAN, JOBERT B.,

This study was conducted to describe the plans and implementation strategies of the
selected barangays in Tagaytay City regarding risk reduction and resettlement; the actual
activities implemented during the 2020 Taal volcano eruption, problems encountered, and
suggestions to improve the disaster risk reduction and resettlement efforts. Eleven barangay
officials from barangays Iruhin West, Kaybagal South, Maharlika West, Sungay West, San Jose,
Silang Junction South, Maharlika East, and Tolentino East, with a total of 88, took part in this
quantitative study. This city has a variety of projects, programs, and plans in place to mitigate
the disaster's impact. However, there are still gaps in terms of programs, projects, plans,
strategies, and barangay officials' awareness of disaster risk reduction and relocation initiatives.
The barangay officials from selected barangays in Tagaytay City have disaster risk reduction
management plan, resettlement plans, and strategies to implement such plans, but they were
caught off guard by the disaster, and tourism suffered as a result. Evacuation sites were scarce,
and residents complained of the strong stench from the volcano, which caused respiratory and
skin problems. The barangay authorities are well-informed about catastrophe risk reduction and
recovery measures.
