Produktbeschreibung

Philippines is one of the countries in the world that are mostly hit by the highest number of disasters each year. On November 8, 2013; the Super Typhoon Haiyan, known in the Philippines as Super Typhoon "Yolanda" swept the central Philippines, particularly in Region 8 which composed of Leyte and Samar Island and killed over 6,000 people, displaced some four million. The devastations it brought to schools and communities were unquestionably beyond imagination. The same super typhoon scenario can occur without warning at any time, and children are the most vulnerable. The study aimed to determine the status of Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM) Program implementation of public elementary and secondary schools. The output of the study was the DRRM Program Enhancement Strategies/Plan believed to create a paradigm shift from reactive to proactive DRRM wherein school heads, teachers, pupils/students, and internal/external stakeholders have increased their awareness and understanding of DRRM in school, with the end in view of increasing school resilience and decreasing vulnerabilities.
