By virtue of Executive Orders 43, s. 2011 and 24 s. 2017, the Cabinet Cluster on Climate Change Adaptation, Mitigation and Disaster Risk Reduction (CCAM-DRR) was created and reorganized in recognition of the urgency to pursue measures to adapt and mitigate the effects of climate change in the Philippines.

The CCAM-DRR Cluster focuses on the conservation and protection of the environment and natural resources, and serves as a venue for discussing inter-related concerns on climate change and disaster risk management. The Cluster also takes the lead in the effective integration of policies and programs on climate risk management, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development.

The CCAM-DRR Cluster is chaired by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and co-chaired by the Department of National Defense (DND). Aside from being a member-agency, the Climate Change Commission (CCC) also serves as the Cluster Secretariat.
