8. Disaster Risk Assessment: Process
Hazard Characterization/ Identifying and characterizing
Frequency Analysis the hazard(s) that threaten an area.
Determining the consequences
Consequence Analysis of these potential hazard(s) to
exposed population and land uses
Estimating the risk expressed as the
Risk Estimation expected annual number of lives lost,
damage to property
Risk Evaluation Prioritizing areas by comparing
the risk estimates to the acceptability
criteria and assigned scores.

9. Disaster Risk Assessment: Outputs
Hazard Characterization/ Inventory of hazards affecting
Frequency Analysis the planning area
Estimates of fatality and damage costs for
Consequence Analysis each hazard type per event
Estimates of fatality and damage costs
Risk Estimation For each hazard type per year, in map
and table form
A prioritized list of high risk areas
Risk Evaluation and vulnerabilities of the population,
environment and economy y

10. Mainstreaming DRA Results in the Plan
1.
1 Analyze the risk impact to the land use and
physical framework
2. Identify development issues, goals, objectives,
a d targets
and ta gets
3. Identify DRR measures to respond
to the disaster risks

11. Mainstreaming DRA Results in the Plan:

13. Mainstreaming DRA Results in the Plan:
Region XIII/CARAGA Case
g
Stricter enforcement of
building codes/land use plans
Prioritization of watershed
development, forest

protection and environment
laws
Rationalization of mining
and eco-tourism activities
Development of hazard-

14. Mainstreaming DRA Results in the Plan:
Surigao del Norte Case
g
Joint development of high risk areas in Surigao del Norte
Dinagat Island

A del Norte

15. Mainstreaming DRA Results in the Plan:
Surigao del Norte Case
The Surigao del Norte case emphasized and showcased the
value of mainstreaming DRR i th PDPFP
l f i t i in the PDPFP:
As a basis for lower level LGU and sectoral plans
As a tool to reconcile and rationalize land use proposals
As a guide for g
g government agencies and p
g private developers
p
As a basis for adjudicating conflicts arising from the
implementation of land use plans

16. Outcomes of DRR Mainstreaming
Enhanced understanding of the p
g planning environment
g
More realistic land use and physical development
framework/indicative allocation of land uses
Potential damages and casualties are considered in
development goals and targets
Risk reduction measures are prioritized
DRR programs and projects are eventually provided
with budgetary resources and implemented
Risks are considered in the project design and M&E
Risk estimates serve as benchmark for evaluating DRR

17. Integrating DRR/CCA Project
•Enhance local awareness of climate change and its effects on existing hazards
•Develop planning tools responsive to both natural hazard risks and climate change
Objectives •Demonstrating DRR/CCA approaches at the local level
•Improve enabling environment for DRR and CCA integration and multistakeholder cooperation
Local level land use & development planning Enhanced multistakeholder cooperation in
Outcomes and decision‐making processes reflect addressing CCA and DRR
CCA/DRR priorities

18. Integrating DRR/CCA Project: Key Deliverables

19. Integrating DRR/CCA Project:
Design Considerations
D i C id i
Build on existing processes and structures
Complement other government initiatives
Involve LGUs and communities
Build capability of NEDA Regional Offices to
p
provide direct assistance to LGUs on DRR/CCA
Partner with regional/local universities and
research institutions
Share/multiply knowledge
Promote gender sensitivity
Adopt project sustainability measures
