what really is disaster?
disaster
Disaster is "a sudden, calamitous occurrence that
causes great harm, injury, destruction, and devastation
to life and property”. It disrupts the usual course of
life, causing both physical and emotional distress
such as an intense feeling of helplessness and
hopelessness.
disaster
A preceding definition of disaster stresses that two elements are
affected – life (whether human or animal) and property. The effects
vary – it maybe a minor damage (like broken windows and doors),
major damage (like torn rooftops, collapsed walls), total
destruction (like completely destroyed houses and structures
rendering them useless and inhabitable) and the worst scenario, it
can lead to death. (Asian Disaster Preparedness Center, ADPC,
2012)
disaster
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization
(FAO, 2008), 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”.
disaster
Its impacts may include loss of life, injury, disease and
other negative effects on human physical, mental,
and social wellbeing, together with damage to
properties, destruction of assets, loss of services,
social and economic disruptions, and environmental
degradation.
TYPES OF DISASTER
Classification of Disasters:
Disasters can be divided into 2 large categories:

A. Natural Disasters – a natural phenomenon is caused by natural forces,


such as earthquakes, typhoon, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, fires,
tornados, and extreme temperatures. They can be classified as rapid
onset disasters and those with progressive onset, such as droughts that
lead to famine. These events, usually sudden, can have tremendous
effects.
Classification of Disasters:
Disasters can be divided into 2 large categories:

B. Man-made - Disasters caused by man are those in which major


direct causes are identifiable intentional or non-intentional human
actions.

Preparedness
It is important that you are prepared for
potential disasters depending on your
location.

Having an emergency supply kit and an


emergency plan are two basic steps to be
prepared!
