• A condition determined by physical, social, economic and

  environmental factors or processes which increase the

  susceptibility of a community to the impact of hazards. (UNISDR,

  Vulnerability
• The extent to which a commuity, structure, service, or geographic area is likeley to be damaged or disrupted by the impact of particular hazard.

  Vulnerability
• refers to the elements at risk from a natural or human-

  made hazard event.

  Exposure
• the probability of harmful consequences or expected losses resulting from the interactions between natural orhuman-induced hazards and vulnerable conditions. Risks aredependent on vulnerabilities and other factors such as hazards,capacities, and exposure of people to hazards

  Disaster Risk
• different types of vulnerabilities

  Physical and Environmental Vulnerability

  Social Vulnerability

  Economic Vulnerability
• Under P & E Vulnerability

  Human-made Environment (buildings and infrastructures)

  Natural Environment (agriculture, forestry, and aquaculture)
• Susceptibility of the population, the social institutions or

  organizations that ensure the sustenance of families,

  communities, and society

  Social Vulnerability
• Assets and resources of the community that are susceptible to

  disasters, including, production, distribution, and utilization of

  goods and services that ensure the well-being of people

  Economic Vulnerability
• Opposite of Vulnerability

  Capacity
• The combination of a community’s strengths, characteristics, and

  resources that can be utilized to achieve certain goals. There are

  capacities that can be mobilized to aid recovery from disasters.

  Disaster Management
• This strategy focuses on the underlying conditions of risk

  generated by unsustainable development which leads to disaster

  occurrence. Its objective is to increase capacity to manage and reduce risks.

  Disaster Risk Reduction
• The systematic process of using administrative directives,

  organizations, and operational skills and capacities to implement

  strategies, policies, and improved coping capacities in order to
