    “Disaster is a serious disruption of
    the functioning of a community or
    society causing widespread human,
    material, economic, and environmental
    losses which exceed the ability of the
    affected community to cope using its own
    resources”

    DISASTER AND
    DISASTER
    Disaster RISK - Any occurrence that
    causes damage, ecological disruption,
    loss of human life, deterioration of

    harmful consequences or expected losses
    (deaths, injuries, livelihoods, assets
    services) resulting from the interactions
    between natural or human-induced hazards
    and vulnerable conditions
    BASIC CONCEPTS OF
    UNDERSTANDING
    Disasters are frequently described asAa result
    DISASTER
    of the
    combination of:
    1. The exposure to a hazard;

    2. The conditions of vulnerability that are present; and

    3. Insufficient capacity or measures to reduce or cope with the


    potential negative consequences.
    HAZAR
    Refers to a source of potential harm or damage.

    It can also include latent conditions that may represent future
    threats and can have different origins:

    Natural – geological, hydrometeorological, and


    technological hazards.

    Man-made – environmental degradation and


    technological hazards
    types OF HAZARD
    1.
    Natural
    Natural phenomena that pose threats or cause
    negative impacts to people and property.
    Examples are the
    following: Volcanic eruption
    Lahar flows
    Typhoon Drought
    Storm surge Red tide
    Flood/ flash Pestilence
    flood fire
    Earthquake
    Tsunami
    2. Human-
    madeprojects, environmental degradation, industrial
    Human-made hazards include civil conflict, displacement due to
    development
    technological hazards like :
    Examples are the
    following: Gaseous, chemical
    contamination
    Leakage of Famine
    toxic waste Drought
    Oil spill Fires
    Fish kills Flood.
    nuclear
    3. Combination or
    Socionatural Hazards
    Flooding and drought can fall under this category if these are due to
