H. List of Community or Civil Society Organizations and Number of Members in the Barangay
The Barangay Disaster Risk Reduction Management Committee (BDRRMC) is one of the committees of the Barangay
Development Council which is designated by law (RA 10121, otherwise known as the “Philippine Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management Act of 2010”) to oversee and facilitate the activities for the safety and security of the
population living in the community. The committee is responsible for implementing programs, projects and activities
within the community or barangay to prevent or minimize the impact of natural or human- induced hazards to people,
property, business, critical facilities and infrastructure, environment and other elements at risk in the community.
BDRRM PLAN Page 11 of 43
The BDRRMC, under the Barangay Development Council, has the functions to be implemented in accordance with RA
10121. These are as follows:
1. To approve, monitor and assess the implementation of the barangay disaster risk reduction management plan in
accordance to the city or municipal and other higher-level programs and projects;
2. Ensure that the disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation will be integrated into the local development
plans, activities, projects and programs and will be funded as strategy for sustainable development and poverty
reduction in the community;
3. Recommend for the strict implementation of mandatory and forced evacuation if there is a threat to the people
especially those who are living in a high-risk zones or areas; and
4. Convene the committee and conduct quarterly meeting or as needed.
The primary basis of the sectoral membership to BDRRMC is the legitimacy of the organizations with barangay
programs or projects. A legitimate organization is duly registered, accredited to any authorized government agency or
recognized by the Sangguniang Bayan or Barangay. They must also actively participate in any barangay or community
development activities. If they are not yet registered in any government agency, they may also submit a letter to the
Sangguniang Barangay in order to identify them as a legitimate organization in the barangay. The Barangay Council
will provide evidence of the recognition that they are a legitimate organization that implements programs, projects
and activities in the barangay through the Executive Order from the Punong Barangay or Barangay Resolution.
BDRRM PLAN Page 12 of 43

• Submits the result of study with initial recommendations or suggestions for recovery and rehabilitation of damaged
infrastructures and shelters.
A Community Risk Assessment (CRA) or sometimes called as Hazard, Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment (HVCA) is
a process that uses a participatory approach which enables the community to Identify potential hazards and determine
the nature and extent of risks they pose. It determines also the strengths and opportunities available within the
barangay that will help us minimize or at least cope with these risks.
It is a means to collectively analyze community vulnerabilities, highlight capacities and identify gaps for integrated and
strategic investment of resources to reduce their occurrence or impact to population, property and environment
Island Barangay Aurora is located in Surigao City and is situated further inland compared to the coastal barangay of
the same name. Despite this, the community is still vulnerable to natural hazards such as typhoons, flooding,
landslides, and earthquakes.
One of the primary hazards that the community faces is flooding, which can occur during heavy rains or typhoons. The
barangay is located near several bodies of water, including rivers and creeks, which can overflow during extreme
weather events. Landslides can also occur in the hilly areas of the barangay, which can cause significant damage to
infrastructure and homes.
In terms of disaster preparedness, Island Barangay Aurora has established an early warning system to alert residents
of potential hazards. The barangay also conducts regular drills and trainings to ensure that residents know what to do
in case of an emergency. The barangay has a Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (DRRMC) in place,
which is responsible for coordinating disaster response efforts in the community.
Despite these efforts, there are still several challenges that the community faces when it comes to disaster
preparedness. Limited resources, lack of awareness and understanding of the risks posed by natural hazards, and
inadequate infrastructure can hinder the barangay's ability to effectively respond to disasters.
Overall, Island Barangay Aurora is taking steps to mitigate the impact of hazards and disasters in the community, but
there is still room for improvement in terms of resources, infrastructure, and community awareness.

Consistent with the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan, National DRRM Framework, and the Local
Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan, the overall plan and activities revolve around four thematic areas:
Disaster Prevention – the outright avoidance of adverse impacts of hazards and related disasters. It expresses the
concept and intention to completely avoid potential adverse impacts through action taken in advance such as
construction of dams or embankments that eliminate flood risks, land-use regulations that do not permit any
settlement in high-risk zones and seismic engineering designs that ensure the survival and function of a critical
building in any likely earthquake.
Disaster Mitigation – the way to lessen or limit the adverse impacts of hazards and related disasters. Mitigation
measures encompass engineering techniques and hazard-resilient construction as well as improved environmental
policies and public awareness.
(b) Disaster Preparedness - the knowledge and capacities developed by governments, professional response and
recovery organizations, communities and individuals to effectively anticipate, respond to, and recover from the
impacts of likely, imminent or current hazard events or conditions. Preparedness action is carried out within the
context of DRRM and aims to build the capacities needed to efficiently manage all types of emergencies and achieve
orderly transitions from response to sustained recovery. Preparedness is based on a sound analysis of DRR and good
linkages with early warning systems and includes such activities as contingency planning, stockpiling of equipment
and supplies, the development of arrangements for coordination, evacuation and public information and associated
training and field exercises. These must be supported by formal, institutional, legal and budgetary capacities.
(c) Disaster Response - the provision of emergency services and public assistance during or immediately after a
disaster in order to save lives, reduce negative health impacts, ensure public safety and meet the basic subsistence
needs of the people affected. Disaster response is predominantly focused on immediate and short-term needs and is
sometimes called “disaster relief.”
Rehabilitation – measures that ensure the ability of affected communities and/or areas to restore their normal level
of functioning by rebuilding livelihood and damaged infrastructure and increasing the communities’ organizational
capacity
Post Disaster Recovery – the restoration and improvement where appropriate, of facilities, livelihood and living
conditions of disaster-affected communities, including efforts to reduce disaster risk factors, in accordance with the
principle of “build back better”.
With the end view of supporting the country’s overall goal of “Safer, adaptive and disaster resilient Filipino
communities towards sustainable development”, each thematic area has its own goal.
The following strategies and expected outputs per thematic area are based on the recent National Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management Plan (NDRRMP) 2020 – 2030.
