Mobile Kitchen
This is one of the DSWD Disaster Response Management Bureau (DRMB) ongoing innovations to enhance Disaster Response Operations in the Field Offices.
Mobile kitchens are being introduced as a vital innovation in disaster response. These mobile units are designed to address several critical needs:
1. Bridging the Gap: They provide immediate food assistance in evacuation centers, especially when community kitchens or facilities are not yet operational.
2. Versatility: Beyond disaster relief, mobile kitchens can be adapted for various Social Welfare and Development Programs.
3. Economic Empowerment: They offer a sustainable solution by supporting Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) and Small Scale Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
