Natural hazards cannot beprevented from happening

BUTthe vicious cycle of disasters

and underdevelopment can bereversed.

by mainstreaming DRRin the development

22/37


23/37

Philippine exposure to disaster is largely due to its location and

geographic landscape. Composed of 7,107 islands, it is one of the worlds largestarchipelagos

long coastline which makes it vulnerable to sea-level rise located along the Pacific Ring of Fire, making it vulnerable to

earthquake, tsunamis and volcanic hazards has 220 volcanoes, 22 of which are classified as active lies along the Western Pacific Basin, a generator of climatic

conditions such as monsoons, thunderstorms, intertropicalconvergence zones, typhoons and El Nino

annual average, 20 tropical cyclones cross the Philippine areaof responsibility (damage due to high winds, storm surges and floods)

Types of HazardsGeologic and Hydrometeorologic Hazards

1. (earthquake-related hazards such as earthquake-induced landslide(ground shaking, ground rupture, liquefaction)

2. volcanic eruptions3. flooding

4. storm surge5. rain-induced landslide.

Biological hazards

outbreak of epidemic diseases, insect plagues)


26/37

Natural flooding

Man-induced Flooding - related to man-made structures andactivities, which include:

- improper zoning along alluvial floodplains and riverbanks

- settlements & structures

- poor flood control and drainage systems

- garbage and domestic wastes & siltation

- improper storm drain design (man-induced flooding)results to flash

flooding

Storm surges often occur in coastal environments and highlydeveloped or urbanized areas due to high tidal fluctuations andwind driven wave movement in land during typhoon or stormevents.


27/37

Types of Hazards

Technological Hazards

industrial pollution, dam failures, transport or industrialaccidents like fires, oil spills); or hazards brought about byacts of terrorism, armed conflict and similar events.

Hazards influenced by climatic variations, such asclimate change and desertification

Can also pose threats or trigger the seven naturalhazards earlier mentioned.

Vulnerability

susceptibility of acommunity to experienceharmful effects of hazards


29/37

Disaster Risk Reduction

The concept and practice of reducing disaster risks through

systematic efforts to analyze and

manage the causal factors of

disasters, including the conscious

efforts to reduce exposure to

hazards, lessening of vulnerability of

people and property, wisemanagement of land and the environment, andimproved preparedness for adverse events.


30/37

DRR has a twofoldobjective :

1.addressing vulnerability in

order to be resilient to naturalhazards and

1.ensuring that development

efforts do not increasevulnerability to these hazards.


31/37

People and institutions areinvolved in preparedness,

mitigation, and prevention,emergency response andpost emergency activitiesassociated with extremeevents .
