DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian is actively working with aid groups to introduce efficient water solutions in disaster-stricken regions. Recently, he engaged with Waves of Water, an aid organization specializing in water treatment systems for disaster-affected areas. Gatchalian focuses on enhancing disaster relief efforts by establishing fast, accessible, and affordable methods to provide potable water to communities in need. He aims to implement straightforward filtration technologies from the United States through partnerships with organizations like Waves for Water and the Management Association of the Philippines. These solutions are easy to deploy and simple to maintain, ensuring that clean drinking water remains readily available even during challenging times.
