---------------------------------------------------------------1. PREFATORY STATEMENT
1. 1
Section 2 of the Republic Act No. 10121 known as the "Philippine Disaster
Risk Reduction and Management Act of 201 O" provides that it is a State policy
to adopt a disaster risk reduction and management approach that is holistic,
comprehensive, integrated, and proactive in lessening the socioeconomic
and environmental impacts of disasters including climate change, and
promote the involvement and participation of all sectors and all stakeholders
concerned, at all levels, especially the local community. Such is reflected in
the Philippine Development Plan 2023-2028 which tackles the importance of
dealing with natural hazards and human-induced shocks along with
promoting human and social development, and declares that the State must
ensure the safety of the people before, during, and after disasters.
1.2
Parallel to this, all local government units, including barangays, shall ensure
the safety and resiliency of communities to face the challenges of disasters.
Community-based disaster risk reduction and management (DRRM) is an
approach to bring people together and collectively identify common risks and
hazards to address appropriate response and preparedness. For it to become
effective, the motivation and interest of community stakeholders must be
maintained by continuously developing sound policies and incorporating new
approaches.
1.3 The Department, through the Local Government Academy, developed
Operation L!STO, a national advocacy program for disaster preparedness
that guides LGUs and DILG personnel on actions they need to take before,
during, and after a disaster. Additionally, it seeks to strengthen the capacity
and level of preparedness of LGUs through the L!STO teams in national and
local governments.

1.4 The Listo si KAP (Komunidad at Punong Barangay) is a body of protocols
containing operational activities and decisions responding to the different
stages of disasters at all levels. This is the localized or barangay version of
the country's multi-hazard response plan, anchored on Operation L!STO. The
Listo si KAP enjoins the barangay officials and the community to actualize
their crucial roles in disaster risk reduction and management. This body of
protocols amplifies the importance of barangays in DRRM being privy to their
local needs and vulnerabilities, having the ability to mobilize local resources,
and being pivotal in educating and involving the community in DRRM efforts.
Barangays also link the residents to the higher local government units and
other national government agencies; hence, efficient communication and
coordination are ensured.
2.
PURPOSE
The policy aims to provide information for the barangays on how to best prepare
and recover from the effects of disasters. It seeks to ensure a timely and wellcoordinated response. Specifically, it aims to:
2.1
Guide and support barangays in the reorganization of the Barangay Disaster
Risk Reduction and Management Committee (BDRRMC) and formulation of
Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction Management Plan (BDRRMP) containing
the four (4) Thematic Areas (Prevention & Mitigation, Preparedness,
Response, and Rehabilitation and Recovery);
2.2
Intensify vigilance among barangays during the pre-hazard phase by creating
structures and systems, institutionalizing plans and policies, building
competencies, and equipping them with hardware and pertinent supplies;
2.3
Equip the barangays with knowledge of various protocols and critical
preparations during the imminent hazard phase; and
2.4 Guide the barangays in conducting immediate needs assessment after a
disaster.
3.
SCOPE/COVERAGE
This policy shall cover all Provincial, City, Municipal, and Barangay governments,
DILG Regional and Field Offices, among others concerned.

ANNEX A - LISTO SI KAP
DEFINITION OF TERMS1
1. Capacity- a combination of all strengths and resources available within a
community, society, or organization that can reduce the level of risk, or effects of
a disaster. Capacity may include infrastructure and physical means, institutions,
societal coping abilities, as well as human knowledge, skills, and collective
attributes such as social relationships, leadership, and management. Capacity may
also be described as capability.
2. Civil Society Organizations or CSOs - non-state actors whose aims are neither to
generate profits nor to seek governing power. CSOs unite people to advance
shared goals and interests. They have a presence in public life, expressing the
interests and values of their members or others, and are based on ethical, cultural,
scientific, religious, or philanthropic considerations. CSOs include nongovernment
organizations (NGOs), professional associations, foundations, independent
research institutes, community-based organizations (CBOs), faith-based
organizations, people's organizations, social movements, and labor unions.
3. Climate Change - a change in climate that can't be identified by changes in the
mean and/or variability of its properties and that persists for an extended period
typically decades or longer, whether due to natural variability or as a result of
human activity.
4. Community-Based Disaster Risk Reduction and Management or CBDRRM - a
process of disaster risk reduction and management in which at-risk communities
are actively engaged in the identification, analysis, treatment, monitoring, and
evaluation of disaster risks in order to reduce their vulnerabilities and enhance their
capacities, and where the people are at the heart of decision-making and
implementation of disaster risk reduction and management activities.
5. Contingency Planning - a management process that analyzes specific potential
events or emerging situations that might threaten society or the environment and
establishes arrangements in advance to enable timely, effective, and appropriate
responses to such events and situations.
6. Disaster - 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 are often described as a result of the
combination of 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, Disaster impacts may include loss of life, injury, disease
and other negative effects on human, physical, mental and social well-being,
together with damage to property, destruction of assets, loss of services, Social
and economic disruption and environmental degradation.
7. Disaster Mitigation - the lessening or limitation of the adverse impacts of hazards
and related disasters. Mitigation measures encompass engineering techniques
and hazard-resistant construction as well as improved environmental policies and
public awareness.
8. Disaster 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
1 Culled out from RA 10121
"Matino, Mahusay at Maaasahan"
Trunkline No. (02) 8876 3454
of likely, imminent, or current hazardous events or conditions. Preparedness action
is carried out within the context of disaster risk reduction and management and
aims to build the capacities needed to efficiently manage all types of emergencies
and achieve orderly transitions from response to sustained recovery.
Preparedness is based on a sound analysis of disaster risk and good linkages with
early warning systems and includes such activities as contingency planning,
stockpiling of equipment and supplies, the development of arrangements for
coordination, evacuation and public information, and associated training and field
exercises. These must be supported by formal institutional, legal, and budgetary
capacities.
9. Disaster Prevention - the outright avoidance of adverse impacts of hazards and
related disasters. It expresses the concept and intention to completely avoid
potential adverse impacts through action taken in advance such as the
construction of dams or embankments that eliminate flood risks, land-use
regulations that do not permit any settlement in high-risk zones, and seismic
engineering designs that ensure the survival and function of a critical building in
any likely earthquake.
10. Disaster Response - the 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.
Disaster response is predominantly focused on immediate and short-term needs
and is sometimes called "disaster relief'.
11. Disaster Risk - the potential disaster losses in lives, health status, livelihood,
assets, and services, which could occur to a particular community or a Society over
some specified future time period.
12. 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 exposures to hazards, lessened vulnerability of people
and property, wise management of land and the environment, and improved
preparedness for adverse events.
13. Disaster Risk Reduction and Management or DRRM - the systematic process of
using administrative directives, organizations, and operational skills and capacities
to implement strategies, policies, and improved coping capacities to lessen the
adverse impacts of hazards and the possibility of disaster. Prospective disaster
risk reduction and management refers to risk reduction and management activities
that address and seek to avoid the development of new or increased disaster risks,
especially if risk reduction policies are not put in place.
14. Early Warning System - the set of capacities needed to generate and disseminate
timely and meaningful warning information to enable individuals, communities, and
organizations threatened by a hazard to prepare and act appropriately and in
sufficient time to reduce the possibility of harm or loss. A people-centered early
warning system necessarily comprises four (4) key elements: knowledge of the
risks; monitoring, analysis, and forecasting of the hazards; communication or
dissemination of alerts and warnings; and local capabilities to respond to the
warnings received. The expression "end-to-end warning system" is also used to
emphasize that warning systems need to span all steps from hazard detection to
community response.
15. Emergency- unforeseen or sudden occurrence, especially danger, demanding
immediate action.
Page 2 of 4
16. Hazard - a dangerous phenomenon, substance, human activity, or condition that
may cause loss of life, injury or other health impacts, property damage, loss of
livelihood and services, social and economic disruption, or environmental damage.
17. Mitigation - structural and non-structural measures undertaken to limit the adverse
impact of natural hazards, environmental degradation, and technological hazards
and to ensure the ability of at-risk communities to address vulnerabilities aimed at
minimizing the impact of disasters. Such measures include, but are not limited to,
hazard-resistant construction and engineering works, the formulation and
implementation of plans, programs, projects, and activities, awareness raising,
knowledge management, policies on land use and resource management, as well
as the enforcement of comprehensive land-use planning, building and safety
standards, and legislation.
18. Post-Disaster Recovery- the restoration and improvement where appropriate, of
facilities, livelihood, and living conditions of disaster-affected communities,
including efforts to reduce disaster risk factors, by the principles of "build back
better".
19. Preparedness - pre-disaster actions and measures being undertaken within the
context of disaster risk reduction and management and are based on sound risk
analysis as well as pre-disaster activities to avert or minimize loss of life and
property such as, but not limited to, community organizing, training, planning,
equipping, stockpiling, hazard mapping, insuring of assets, and public information
and education initiatives. This also includes the development/enhancement of an
overall preparedness strategy, policy, institutional structure, warning and
forecasting capabilities, and plans that define measures geared to help at-risk
communities safeguard their lives and assets by being alert to hazards and taking
appropriate action in the face of an imminent threat or an actual disaster.
20. 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.
21. 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.
22. Risk Assessment - a methodology to determine the nature and extent of risk by
analyzing potential hazards and evaluating existing conditions of vulnerability that
together could potentially harm exposed people, property, services, livelihood, and
the environment on which they depend. Risk assessments with associated risk
mapping include a review of the technical characteristics of hazards such as their
location, intensity, frequency, and probability; the analysis of exposure and
vulnerability including the physical, social, health, economic, and environmental
dimensions; and the evaluation of the effectiveness of prevailing and alternative
coping capacities in respect to likely risk scenarios.
23. Risk Management- the systematic approach and practice of managing uncertainty
to minimize potential harm and loss. It comprises risk assessment and analysis,
and the implementation of strategies and specific actions to control, reduce, and
transfer risks. It is widely practiced by organizations to minimize risk in investment
decisions and to address operational risks such as business disruption, production
failure, environmental damage, social impacts, and damage from fire and natural
hazards.
Page 3 of 4
24. State of Calamity- a condition involving mass casualty and/or major damages to
property, disruption of means of livelihoods, roads, and normal way of life of people
in the affected areas as a result of the occurrence of natural or human-induced
hazard.
25. Vulnerability- the characteristics and circumstances of a community, system, or
asset that make it susceptible to the damaging effects of a hazard. Vulnerability
may arise from various physical, social, economic, and environmental factors such
as poor design and construction of buildings, inadequate protection of assets, lack
of public information and awareness, limited official recognition of risks and
preparedness measures, and disregard for wise environmental management.
