The village of Santa Paz in Southern Leyte, Philippines is prone to floods and landslides. The school is situated in a particularly dangerous area and could be swept away by a landslide following a tropical storm. Plan's Disaster Risk Reduction programme assessed the school and initially built a trench and concrete barrier to protect it. However, the schools situation makes it vulnerable and only by moving it to a different location can the children be properly protected.
