Lesson Plan DRRM

This lesson plan aims to teach students about the basic concepts of disasters and risk. It will help them understand what constitutes a disaster, differentiate risk factors, and describe the effects on people's lives. The lesson discusses how disasters disrupt communities and cause loss of lives and property. It also covers key aspects of disaster risk management, such as identifying hazards and vulnerabilities, risk reduction strategies, and the importance of preparation, response, and leadership in controlling disaster events. The goal is for students to recognize how events become disasters and identify at-risk areas.

Disasters are emergencies that cannot be handled by those affected without outside
assistance. They are caused by natural or manmade events wherein communities
experience severe danger and incur loss of lives and properties causing disruption to
their social structure and to all or some of the affected communities’ essential
functions. Disasters are inevitable. They are caused by unsustainable development that
has not taken account of possible hazard impacts in that location. They can be less
damaging if the population has better understanding of locally-experienced hazards and
implements preventive or mitigating measures against them.

Overview of Disaster Risk Management


In disaster risk management a whole range of elements need attention depending on
the nature of the hazards in that location. These include:
Risk Reduction. Vulnerability and hazards are not dangerous if taken separately. They
become risk and disaster factors when they unite. Risks can be reduced or managed,
and measures can be employed to ensure that hazards will not result in disasters if
people reduce the weaknesses and vulnerabilities to existing hazards in the location.
• Risk management is needed for disaster prevention to ensure sustainable
development so that people can lead a good, healthy, and happy life without creating
damage to the environment.
Risk management includes identifying health and safety hazards, determining
probability of their occurrences, estimating their potential impacts to the schools and
the communities at risk, enumerating and implementing the following risk reduction
measures: hazard mapping; vulnerability analysis; potential losses estimation; and
strategic disaster prevention / mitigation development.
Essential Components in Determining Risk
The following are essential components in the determination of risk, each of which
should be separately quantified:
• Hazard occurrence probability is the likelihood of experiencing a natural or
technological hazard at a given location or region. Quantifying hazard probability
involves assessing not only the probability of occurrence but the probability of
magnitude.
• Elements at risk. Identifying and making an inventory of people or school buildings or
other elements which would be affected by the hazard if it occurs, and when required,
estimating their economic value.
• Vulnerability of the elements at risk. How affected the school buildings or school
children or other elements would be if they were to experience some levels of hazard
impact. Vulnerability is
the relationship between the severity of hazard impact and the degree of damaged
caused. Each element is affected differently by hazards of different severity.
Control of Events
This is the most critical element of disaster risk management. Control is maintained
through the following measures:
• Anticipation of disaster and the cause effect relationship generated by each type of
event;
• Mitigation or reduction of the risk of disaster;
• Disaster preparedness;
• Accurate information collection and assessment;
• Balanced response;
• Timely actions;
• Effective leadership; and
• Discipline among those handling the relief and disaster management.

IV. Generalization
Disaster happens in an expected way. As an individual we have to be aware of what to
do if ever the case this happens to us. We have to be vigilant when it comes to handling
such scenario.

V. Assignment:
1. Explain how and when an event becomes a disaster.
2. Identify locations o r areas expo sed to hazards that may lead to disaster
