Oxfam Pilipinas has been at the forefront of Anticipatory Action programming since 2017, beginning with the B‑READY project in Eastern Samar, followed by SUPPA and SHARPER in 2019, SUPREME BARMM in 2022, and the health sector AA study in 2025. Oxfam also contributed to the passage of the Philippine Imminent Disaster Law (RA 12287) in 2025, institutionalizing AA in national disaster risk management policy.
These milestones have generated a wealth of knowledge, tools, and lessons that need to be consolidated into updated AA modules. The modules will serve as reference materials for training, advocacy, and program design, ensuring that Oxfam and partners continue to lead in advancing AA practice, localization, GEDSI integration, and policy influence.
