Philippines' silent majority: informal workers face the climate crisis

In this episode rerun, we dive deep into the reality of the Philippines' informal economy. This vast workforce faces significant pre-existing vulnerabilities, including long hours, physical strain, and even abuse. For a country as disaster-prone as the Philippines, climate change layers on more existential threats, exposing informal workers to heightened risks from floods, heatwaves, disease outbreaks, and more.

This episode rerun is produced by Jyn Garcia and engineered by Anthony Tobias. Jaemark Tordecilla is our editor-at-large.
