Subject area: Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities · Area of research: Disaster Risk Reduction and Management
Abstract
With the goal of evaluating the degree of disaster resilience practices at the Barangay DRRMC, a descriptive survey was utilized to examine how the community and staff of the BDRRMC perceived these efforts. The study discovered that, in the opinion of the BDRRMC staff, disaster resiliency procedures related to mitigation, response, recovery, and rehabilitation are all highly practiced. However, results showed that the community thought the BDRRMC only minimally practiced recovery, rehabilitation, and mitigation in addition to disaster-resilient response. Results also indicated that the community's and the BDRRMC staff's perspectives on disaster-resilient measures, including mitigation, response, recovery, and rehabilitation, differed significantly. Lastly, a three-day seminar workshop that focuses on BDRRMC skill and knowledge capacity is suggested as a means of improving and advancing Barangay DRRMC's disaster resilience practices. The study's conclusions led the researcher to suggest that the DBRRMC's procedures be improved by creating a more detailed and localized emergency response and catastrophe resiliency strategy. On top of that, it is advised that the LDRRMO regularly monitor the barangay DRRMC's compliance and adherence. Lastly, it is advised to carry out parallel research on the BDRRMC's understanding of and adherence to national emergency response system standards.
