SCOPE OF PRESENTATION

I. What is a Disaster ?
• According to RA 10121, a "Disaster" is a serious
disruption of the functioning of a community or a society
involving widespread human, material, economic or
environmental losses and impacts, which exceeds the
ability of the affected community or society to cope
using its own resources
• Disasters result from the combination of: the exposure to
a hazard; the conditions of vulnerability that are present;
and insufficient capacity or measures to reduce or cope
with the potential negative consequences

II. PHILIPPINE DISASTER RISK PROFILE
• Situated along the Eurasian and Pacific
plates.
• 300 volcanoes, 22 as active, 27 are
potentially active with three volcanoes
constantly monitored recently. (Mt.
Mayon, Taal and Bulusan)
• Extensive fault lines generate an average
of 20 quakes per day, mostly minor ones.
• Located in the typhoon belt, the
Philippines Average of 18-22 typhoons a
year almost half of which is destructive.
•vulnerable rural areas where houses are light
structured and not able to withstand the
effects of these weather disturbances.
•Its 289 kms. of coastline is exposed to possible
storm surges, tsunami, and sea level rise.

DISASTER RISK PROFILE (cont…)
• Flooding is a perennial problem due to:
• unplanned and unregulated
development ventures (housing and
other industries e.g fish ponds,
mining)
• informal settlers living in waterways
and houses on river banks;
•denuded forest due to illegal logging;
•eroded soil;
•poor waste management;
•problematic protocols in the release of waters in major dams
•the impacts of climate change is also causing unpredictable behaviours
of typhoons and its effects
•The effects of El Niño and La Niña can cause inundations, landslides and
drought which affects food security and energy

• The country’s vulnerability to natural hazards alone cost the
Philippine Government an average of Php 15 billion annually
in direct damages or more than 0.5% of the country’s GNP
• Aside from these direct impacts, disasters have also derailed
social and economic development since funds are reallocated
from on-going programs to finance relief and reconstruction
assistance

• The Philippines’ Risk Profile for Natural Disaster is also reflected in the
2009 Global Assessment Report prepared by the United Nations
International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR)

• According to the World Risk Index 2011, the Philippines places third out of
173 countries ranked according to their “risk score” or their exposure to
hazards

• Vulnerability to Climate Change :
– Current climate change trends exhibited increasing temperatures.
mean temperature increased 0.57°C and average of 0.01°C per year-
increase from 1971-2000
– Climate Projections from PAGASA

With global warming, more intense
typhoons are likely, but changes in
frequency are uncertain - PAGASA

Future Changes on Extreme Events based on
Climate Change Scenarios provided by PAGASA:
Using A1B (balanced) and A2 (Regionally oriented economic
development and slower and more fragmented technological
changes and improvements) scenarios:
1. It is very likely that hot temperature and heavy precipitation will
continue to become more frequent in the future.
2. Number of days with maximum temperature > 35 degree
Celsius is expected to increase in all parts of the country in
2020 and 2050
3. Extreme rainfall is expected to increase in Luzon and Visayas
in 2020 and 2050.

• Perceived Impact of Climate Change: (NCCAP)
– The Philippines ranks 6th out of 16 countries extremely
vulnerable to climate change based on Climate Change
Vulnerability Index 2010
– The Philippines relies on its agricultural economy for food
security which makes up 18% of GDP
– One out of five (or 15.73 million) Filipino has no access to
safe drinking water

• Perceived Impact of Climate Change:
– Climate projections by 2020 and 2050 would impact domestic water
supply, irrigation, hydropower generation, recharge of aquifers, water
quality, watersheds and fishery, and even flood control operations
– Climate change is expected to further aggravate the present condition of
the Philippine ecosystem
– Human security is threatened
– Disaster risks are increasing, due to increasing intensity and frequency of
hydro-meteorological hazards (brought about by climate change); and
the increasing value of exposed elements due to development and
demographic expansion.

• The Philippines was first in Asia to have enacted its own law
on disaster risk reduction and management through
Republic Act No. 10121 or The Philippine Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management (DRRM) Act of 2010
• This law provided for the Paradigm Shift from Disaster Relief
and Response towards Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management (DRRM)
III. PHILIPPINE DRRM SYSTEM
Top-down and
centralized disaster
management
Bottom-up and participatory
disaster risk reduction process
Disasters as merely
a function of
physical hazards
Disasters mainly a reflection
of people's vulnerability
Focus on disaster
response and
anticipation
Integrated approach to genuine
social and human development to
reduce disaster risk

• The Philippine DRRM Law was signed on May 27,
2010
• Implementing Rules and Regulation was signed on
27 September 2010 and took effect 15 days after
• National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management
Framework was signed on June 16, 2011
• National DRRM Plan was approved by the National
Council on February 7, 2012
RA 10121: PROGRESS OF IMPLEMENTATION

NDRRMC ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
The DRRM Act of 2010 created the National Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Council (NDRRMC) in place of the former National Disaster
Coordinating Council (NDCC) as the highest policy-making regarding disaster risk
reduction and management of the country. It likewise advises the President the
status of disaster preparedness, prevention, mitigation, response and rehabilitation
undertaken.

Safer, adaptive and resilient Filipino
communities toward sustainable development

The National DRRM Framework is a conceptual paradigm on how the “whole of society” can
work towards ‘Safer, adaptive and disaster-resilient Filipino communities towards sustainable
development’
It ensures DRRM process to be comprehensive and integrated; all-hazards coverage; involve all
sectors; and have maximum impact on communities
It emphasizes that resources invested in disaster prevention, mitigation, preparedness and
climate change adaptation will be more effective towards attaining the above stated vision
It also highlights the need for effective and coordinated humanitarian assistance and disaster
response to save lives and protect the more vulnerable groups
Further, it illustrates the importance of identifying the risk factors and understanding how their
interplay can translate into disasters if left unabated or unmanaged
NDRRM FRAMEWORK

THE NATIONAL DRRM PLAN 2011-2028
• RA 10121 mandates the implementation of a comprehensive National
Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan (NDRRMP) containing the
following:
– Identification of hazards, vulnerabilities, and risks to be managed at the
national level
– The accomplishment from the Strategic National Action Plan (SNAP) for DRR
is used as baseline and take-off point
– It will provide detail on programs and projects to be pursued, timelines to be
met, lead agencies and groups who will have the responsibility, as well as the
resources needed for implementation
– It will stipulate the DRRM approaches and strategies to be applied to manage
identified hazards and risks
– The roles of agencies, their responsibilities and lines of authority at all levels
of government will be identified
– It shall provide the vertical and horizontal coordination mechanism in pre-
disaster and post-disaster activities
– It will include a system for monitoring and evaluation of programs

of nations and communities
– Incheon Regional Road Map and Action Plan on DRR through CCA agreed
upon during the 4th Asian Ministerial Conference on DRR (October 25-28,
2010)
– A rationalized policy environment for integrated DRR and CCA
mainstreaming into national and local planning and decision making
processes in the country - DRRM Act of 2010 and the Climate Change Act of
2009
– Focus on climate risk reduction/management - decision making is based on
causes, magnitude and impacts of risks. Climate change knowledge and
information is also science based drawn from scientific contributions and
best practices of concerned communities
– A Memorandum of Understanding between NDRRMC through the OCD and
the Climate Change Commission on February 8, 2011 to ensure that
communities in the Philippines are made more resilient to climate disasters
in the future.
– A Joint Work Program is being formulated for DRR-CCA
harmonization/integration or Climate Risk Reduction
Harmonization efforts for DRR and
Climate Change Adaptation (CCA)
