Upper Pulangi District in Bukidnon is home to 16,000 inhabitants, predominantly composed of the Umayamnons and Higaunons who remain vulnerable to natural hazards, basically because of its geographical location.

In 2012, Typhoon Pablo damaged vast agricultural land, ravaged houses, and damaged properties amounting to roughly P 20M in the barangays within Upper Pulangi. The typhoon also left numerous people injured. To complicate the situation, lack of communication system caused heavy delays in the City Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office rescue operations. Road accidents, landslides, and other hydrometeorological hazards occur regularly in the area leaving the community at risk, including its most vulnerable sectors.
