2. RA 10121
The PHILIPPINE DISASTER RISK
REDUCTION & MANAGEMENT ACT OF 2010
-passed by the Senate and the House of Representatives on
February 1, 2010 and was approved by President Gloria
Macapagal Arroyo on May 27, 2010.
1. Emphasizes the need to adopt a disaster risk reduction and
management approach that is holistic, comprehensive,
integrated and proactive in order to lessen the socio-economic
and environmental impacts of disasters as well as climate
change.
2. A shift of focus from disaster response and recovery towards
prevention & mitigation and preparedness.
3. 3. Provides a strong and legal institutionalized basis
in establishing DRRM related policies, plans,
implementation of action and awareness including
good governance, risk assessment, early warning
system, knowledge-building and awareness raising,
reducing underlying risk factor, and preparedness
for effective response and early recovery.
4. HAZARD
A dangerous phenomenon ,
substance , human activity or
condition that may cause loss
of life, injury or other health
impacts, property damage, loss
of livelihoods and services,
social and economic disruption,
or environmental damage.
• There is a
potential…
• Slow onset, rapid
onset
• Natural or human-
induced
7. DISASTER
The serious disruption of the functioning of society,
causing widespread human, material or environmental
losses, which exceed the ability of the affected people to
cope using their own resources.
8. DISASTER RISK
The potential disaster losses, in lives, health
status, livelihoods, assets and services, which
could occur to a particular community or a
society over some specified future time
period.
10. CAPACITY
The combination of all
the strengths, attributes
and resources available
within a community,
society or organization
that can be used to
achieve agreed goals.
11. PREVENTION
The outright avoidance of adverse impacts of
hazards and related disasters.
Sendai Framework for DRR speaks of
prevention as “prevention of new risks”
12. MITIGATION
The lessening or limitation of the adverse impacts of
hazards and related disasters.
• Adverse impacts of hazards often cannot be
prevented fully – use interchangeably with
prevention
• Scale or severity can be substantially lessened by
various strategies and actions
• Both structural and non-structural measures
13. PREPAREDNESS
The knowledge and capacities developed by
governments, professional response and
recovery organizations, communities and
individuals to effectively anticipate, respond
to, and recover from, the impacts of likely,
imminent or current hazard events or
conditions.
• Requires formal institutional, legal and
budgetary support and capacities
• Aims to build capacities needed to
efficiently manage all types of emergencies
14. RESPONSE
Provision of emergency services and public assistance
during or immediately after a disaster in order to save
lives, reduce health impacts, ensure public safety and
meet the basic subsistence needs of the people
affected.
• Immediate and short-term needs
• Division between response stage and
subsequent recovery stage is not clear-cut
• Response actions, such as the supply of
temporary housing and water supplies, may
extend well into the recovery stage
15. REHABILITATION
Measures that ensure the ability of affected
communities/areas to restore their normal level of
functioning by rebuilding livelihood and damaged
infrastructures and increasing the communities'
organizational capacity.
• Actions taken in the aftermath of disaster
to:
• Assist victims to repair their dwellings
• Re-establish essential services
• Revive key economic and social
activities
16. RECONSTRUCTION
Permanent measures to repair or replace
damaged
dwellings and infrastructure and to set the
economy back on
course.
“build back better”
17. RECOVERY
The restoration and improvement where
appropriate, of facilities, livelihood and living
conditions of disaster-affected communities,
including efforts to reduce disaster risk factors.
Applies “build back better” principle
18. DISASTER RISK REDUCTION
The concept and practice of reducing disaster risks
through systematic efforts to analyze and manage
the causal factors of disasters, including through
reduced exposure to hazards, lessened vulnerability
of people and property, wise management of land
and the environment, and improved preparedness
for adverse events.
Sendai Framework for DRR speaks
of DRR as “reducing existing risks”
19. DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT
The systematic process of using administrative
directives, organizations, and operational skills
and capacities to implement strategies, policies
and improved coping capacities in order to
lessen the adverse impacts of hazards and the
possibility of disaster.
DRM is DRR in ACTION
20. RESILIENCE
The ability of a system, community or society exposed to hazards
to resist, absorb, accommodate and recover from the effects of
a hazard in a timely and efficient manner, including through the
preservation and restoration of its essential basic structures
and functions.

A. Coordination Protocols
Adapting Section 15: Coordination During Emergencies of RA 10121
The corresponding DepEd offices shall lead in the
activation of the EOC in preparing for, responding to, and
recovering from the effects of any disaster or emergencies:
i. Two (2) or more schools are affected – SDO
ii. Two (2) or more divisions are affected – RO
iii. Two (2) or more regions are affected – CO direct
intervention. However, the CO may and will intervene in
cases where the impact is beyond the capacity of the
corresponding office and/or as it sees fit, e.g. direct threat
to life.
33. 1. Early Warnings
CO sends early warnings, alerts, tracking reminders and
other requests for reports to all identified affected regions and
divisions.
Upon issuance of an advisory by the NDRRMC and
other warning agencies such as PAGASA, PHIVOLCS, the
DepED CO DRRMO will send advisories, alerts, and warning
messages to all Region and Division local DepEd key officials
as well as the DRRM Coordinators. The DRRM Coordinators
should forward these issuances to their respective areas of
responsibility.
2. Tracking of Local DepEd Key Officials
During disasters and/or emergencies, all local DepEd
key officials are required to report their status to ensure that
their safety and local leadership are maintained.
34. 3. Reporting of Local Disasters and/or Emergencies and
its Effects
The DRRM Coordinators shall submit their vetted reports
to the higher office (i.e. DO, RO and CO, whichever is
applicable). In cases wherein the reports should be submitted
directly to CO, the immediate higher office should be copy
furnished with the same report.

Program
The adverse impacts of hazards, in particular natural hazards, often cannot be prevented fully, but their scale or severity can be substantially lessened by various strategies and actions. Mitigation measures include engineering techniques and hazard-resistant construction as well as improved environmental and social policies and public awareness.
Say:
RA 10121 gave birth to the creation of the Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (DRRMO) on August 12, 2011 through the issuance of DO 50, s. 2011 which has already been discussed. To guide the office in carrying out its mandate, DO 37, s. 2015 or the Comprehensive Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) in (Basic) Education Framework was issued. The DO is aligned with or adapted the Comprehensive School Safety Framework developed by the Global Alliance on Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience in the Education Sector (GADRRRES) and the four key thematic areas of RA 10121. The CSSF is being championed by the Worldwide Initiative on Safe Schools (WISS).
DO 37 adopts the objectives of the Global Comprehensive School Safety Framework shown in the previous slide.
Say: Examples for Pillar 1 is resilient classroom building design and the provision of Temporary Learning Spaces or TLS.
Do: Go to the next slide
Say:
Examples: DO 21, s. 2015; conduct of student-let school watching and hazard mapping and the Gulayan sa Paaralan as part of CCA.
Say:
This pillar gives emphasis on the integration of DRRM in the school curriculum and in extra-curricular activities and providing capacity building on DRRM for learners and personnel.
Examples: DRRM-CCAM integration in the K-12 curriculum; DRRM camping; training for teachers.
Do: Go to next slide.
Step 1 guides the knowing and understanding of risks which may affect learners and teachers.
Step 2 involves the formulation of strategy, addressing identified risks and establishment of protocols which will be implemented before and during disasters including ensuring education continuity.
Step 3 provides a list of things to consider in response to and early recovery in basic education.
Step 4 puts importance in assessing the execution of plans and protocols and sharing of experiences and practices.

The RADaR was institutionalized in 2015 thru DO 21 S 2015 and has been used during many emergencies experienced in the country since its issuance.
It is currently being updated based on the previous experiences of its stakeholders.
Whether classrooms are totally or partially damaged/ Partially damaged could be minor or major damage. General assessment of damages is discussed in the TLS module.
Affected personnel are classified as one of the following: missing, displaced, injured or deceased
School Furniture only includes teachers’ chairs and tables and learners desks
Computer sets are counted per complete DCP package, not per part
This will be determined during the detailed assessment which will be conducted by the EFD engineers and which will be the basis of programming for classroom repair and new construction.
By practice, the DRRMS uses the term EXPOSED in situation reports to determine the overall number of areas which were forecast to have the possibility of being hit by the hazard. This usually pertains to a large area which may be in the track of a tropical cyclone or those which may experience secondary effects like landslides, flooding, etc. The term AFFECTED, however, is used to determine the total areas which actually have been given PSWS or have reported to have class suspensions or schools used as evacuation centers. Also, only the affected schools are required to submit RADaR as, generally, these are the ones which had disruption in class days.
PSWS has been [un]officially changed to TCWS = Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal
This is issued by PAGASA as to inform the public of possible intensity of the tropical cyclone.
The purpose of the signal is to warn the impending occurrence of the given meteorological conditions. It must be noted also that the approximate lead time to expect the range of the wind speeds given for each signal number is valid only when the signal number is put in effect for the first time. Thus, the associated meteorological conditions are still expected in at least 36 hours when PSWS #1 is put in effect initially; in at least 24 hours with PSWS #2; in at least 18 hours with PSWS #3, in at least 12 hours with PSWS #4; and in at least 12 hours with PSWS #5. The lead time shortens correspondingly in the subsequent issues of the warning bulletin when the signal number remains in effect as the tropical cyclone comes closer. (http://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/index.php/learning-tools/705-learning-tools#philippine-public-storm-warning-signal)
RADaR is sent through SMS and must be formatted for them to be readily usable.
Consolidation of RADaR is based on the affected areas during the previous hazard / disaster. The consolidated RADaR is then sent to these affected divisions’ DRRM coordinator for them to get an idea on which schools have sent their RADaR. They are then tasked to validate these damages (infra and non-infra) from their schools and submit a vetted report (signed by the SDS), which will be the basis for the computation of funds for the provision of support.
The consolidated RADaR is also endorsed to several DepEd Offices (EFD, BLR, DCP) for their immediate action.
Exactly what was written
Say: “In accordance to its functions, the department issued policies to further strengthen DRRM at all levels. You may refer to your handouts for information on these the Department Orders (DOs) and/or Department Memorandum (DM) or you may go to deped.gov.ph to access the complete documents”
Do: Distribute Handout no. 2 (DRRMS policies issued by DepEd) and show the DOs and/or DMs one at a time.
Say: “DRRMO was created to institutionalize the culture of safety at all levels, to systematize protection of education investments and to ensure continued delivery of quality education activities.”
“On the same year that the DRRMO was formed, another policy was issued, the DO 83, s. 2011 or the Disaster Preparedness Measures for Schools. This policy gives directive to schools to implement mitigation measures for natural disasters and encourage students to involve their families and communities in preparing for disasters. On 2012, two policies were issued, DO 43 which is the Guidelines on the Implementation of E.O. 66. and DO 48 which is the Quarterly Conduct of the National School-Based Earthquake and Fire Drill. DO 43 is the basis of suspension of classes and work in times of disasters. The automatic suspension of classes when there is Tropical Storm Warning Signal (TCWS) is also in that DO.”
“Are all schools in your divisions conduct earthquake and fire drills every quarter?“
Do: Ask for a volunteer to share his/her thoughts.
Say: “Yes, we should do this every quarter to ensure our preparedness when earthquake or fire comes. Every quarter, DRRMS sends memorandum on the conduct of these drills because this is in line with the campaign of NDRRMC. Aside from that, the office also asks you for narrative reports on the implementation of the said activity; which is also submitted to NDRRMC.”
“DO 5, s. 2014, or the Implementing Guidelines on the Integration of Gulayan sa Paaralan, Solid Waste Management and Tree Planting Under the National Greening Program (NGP) was issued as an activity for CCA.”
Do: Go to next slide.
Say: “On 2015, there were four DOs and one DM issued related to DRRM. First is DM 58 or the Dissemination of DepEd-DSWD-DILG-DOH Joint Memorandum Circular (JMC) No.1, s. 2013. It is stipulated in the JMC that school is not the primary option for evacuation center. Or, if it will be used as an evacuation center, evacuees can only stay there temporarily.
DO 21, s. 2015 institutionalizes the role/ functions of DRRM Coordinators, schools, divisions, regions and central office. It also provided the information management protocol and the submission of RADaR within 72 hours after the onslaught of disaster.
DO 23, s. 2015 or the Student-Led School Watching and Hazard Mapping. This issuance urges the schools to conduct school watching and hazard mapping with the students every first month of the school year.
DO 27, s. 2015 on the other hand promotes the family earthquake preparedness. Learners from Kinder to Grade 10 were given homework on earthquake preparedness that they have to accomplish with their family.
And DO 37, s. 2015 or The Comprehensive Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) in Education Framework.”
Do: Distribute Hand out no. 3 (DO 37, s. 2015), then go to next slide to further discuss DO 37, s. 2015.
Say: “On 2016, two Department Order and two memoranda were issued. DO 10 is about the policy and guidelines for the Comprehensive Water, Sanitation and Hygiene in Schools (WINS) Program. It includes the basic requirement and standards for water, sanitation, hygiene, health education and deworming and the roles and responsibilities of the schools, Schools Division Offices and Central Offices. WINS program is handled by Schools Health and Nutrition and supported by DRRMS. Another DO that was issued was DO 28. It was released to strengthen the Fire Safety and Awareness in Schools. This order aims to establish specific roles, responsibilities, and monitoring and evaluation mechanisms for the fire safety and awareness program of schools.
With the opening of School Year 2016-2017, DRRMS drafted DM 101, s. 2016 to remind schools to conduct DO 23, s. 2015 or the student-led school watching and hazard mapping.
And, in time for the onset of southwest monsoon or habagat, which we all know can bring catastrophe to our schools, DM 108 was released to increase the preparedness and safety of all personnel and learners and safety of school properties, learning materials and vital records from any possible occurrence of hazards to enable learners’ continued access to education.
The agency recognizes the concern of the teachers on the delayed release of the PSF Financial Assistance for TY Yolanda and Bohol 7.2 Magnitude Earthquake, thus DM 206, s. 2016 was drafted and released.”
Say: “How are we going to connect all of the things that we discussed today?’
Do: Make use of the towers that the participants made to illustrate the framework.
Say: “The towers that you made represents the three pillars of the CSS Framework and the books on top of them are the three education outcomes.
The three towers can stand, but how can we make sure that they stand together?”
Do: Hold/ tape the three towers horizontally with the use of masking tape, preferably in four different colors.
Say: “The tape holds the three towers together, it made them stand stronger and steadier. These four strips of masking tape represents the four thematic areas of RA 10121: prevention and mitiigation, preparedness, reponse and rehabilitation and recovery. Our activities should not target just the Education Outcomes or any of the four thematic areas or any of the three pillars of CSS framework. It should be a combination of those three to ensure that the activities meet the objectives of the framework.”
