Philippine Disaster Risk

Reduction and Management


System
(PDRRMS)
The Philippines is vulnerable to almost all types
of natural hazards because of its geographic
location.

tectonic plates (Philippine
Sea and Eurasian) meet
and is highly-prone to
earthquakes and volanic
eruptions.

existence of
earthquakes, tsunamis
and around 300
volcanoes (22 are
active) in the country.

 Hazard is 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.

Reference: Section 3, RA 10121 (2010)


 Disaster is 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: the exposure to a hazard; the
conditions of vulnerability that are present; and
insufficient capacity

 Disasters caused by natural hazards, human-induced
incidents and climate change abound in the country.
 There are also the problems brought about by the
vulnerabilities which increase disaster risks.
 Poor construction
 Inappropriate location
 Fast growing population
 Urbanization/ Environmental degradation
 Pollution
 Disasters, especially the natural hazards,
cannot ultimately be controlled and avoided.

 However, the underlying factors and pressures


that cause the vulnerabilities can be managed
so that the risks can be reduced.
