What is Disaster?
Disaster
“any occurrence that causes damage,
ecological disruption, loss of human life
or deterioration of health and health
services on a scale sufficient to warrant
an extraordinary response from outside
the affected community area.”
World Health
Organization (WHO)
Typhoon Haiyan
“Yolanda”
Statistically...
80 natural disasters, 392 human-induced disasters, and 548 events combining both natural and
human-induced hazards.
These calamities resulted in 75,216 fatalities nationwide.
Over 20.5 million individuals were affected, with more than 5 million displaced.
Economic losses totaled approximately Php60.6 billion.
Natural disasters accounted for 99% of the fatalities, 82% of those affected, and 98% of the
damage to agriculture, infrastructure, and private properties.
COVID-19 contributed to 98% of the fatalities, amounting to 74,008 deaths.
Globally, the Philippines ranked among the ten most severely impacted countries by natural
events.
Typhoon Odette (I.N. Rai) in December ranked fourth globally in terms of both fatalities and affected
population.
The Philippines had one of the highest numbers of internal displacements due to natural disasters in
2021.
Factors contributing to the Philippines' vulnerability include geographical and physical
characteristics, environmental destruction, climate change, socio-economic issues, and political
instability.
The nation faces challenges such as low incomes, lack of education, poor health, inadequate housing,
water, sanitation, and electricity, as well as violence, worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic since 2019.

MANAGEMENT
Disaster Managment Cycle
PREPAREDNESS
involves measures to ensure that the
community is capable of coping with
the aftermath of a disaster.
RESPONSE
measures that is taken during or
immediately after a disaster
RECOVERY (rehabilitation &
reconstruction)
involves in the support for emergencies in

JAPAN
Early Warning System (J-Alert)
This step is the most basic which includes the following:
Task
technology
community
engagement
data at diff.
levels
Japan’s Disaster
Management Plan
Japan's disaster management plan
encompasses various aspects to
ensure preparedness, response,
recovery, prevention, and mitigation
of natural disasters, particularly
earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons,
and volcanic eruptions. Providing
support to develop local capacity
and implementing frequent
community training programs. Also,
it emphasizes the importance of
developing strategies for systematic
and timely evaluation of early
warning system effectiveness.
