Floods constitute a huge global concern, exacerbated by climate change, resulting in economic damage and loss of life. Relocation has emerged as an important adaptive approach for dealing with periodic floods, with global examples demonstrating its usefulness. The Philippines, one of Southeast Asia's most flood-prone countries, is dealing with recurring flooding, forcing large-scale evacuations and planned relocations. Brgy Daguma, Bagumbayan, Sultan Kudarat is frequently affected by floods. This study examined the residents’ profile in a flood-prone area, the different factors concerning their willingness to relocate, and their involvement in the planning process of the relocation program. The findings disclosed the minimal participation of the community in the relocation planning, despite have adequate information and awareness. Their willingness to relocate is still shrouded by various factors including government support and participation, emotional impact, and distance from the relocation site.
