Module 8 DRRR

Here is my analysis of the picture: 1. The picture shows a person standing near the shore during a stormy sea. The quotation "The sea does not forgive those who venture into her without understanding her moods" means that one should understand the risks and dangers of the sea before going near or into it during stormy weather. 2. The hazard in the picture is the stormy sea - the high waves and strong winds pose risks. 3. The person standing near the shore is exposed to the hazard of the stormy sea. 4. The person is vulnerable because standing so close to the raging sea during a storm puts them at high risk of being swept away by waves or injured by debris carried by

to hazard?

measures?
DESCRIBE HAZARD, EXPOSURE AND VULNERABILITY

Hazard
is a harmful condition, substance, human
behavior or condition that can cause loss of
life, injury or other health effects, harm to
property, loss of livelihood and services, social
and economic disruption or damage to the
environment. Any risk which is imminent is threat.
Exposure
is the presence of elements at risk or chance of
being harmed from a natural or man-made hazard
event. Elements include the individuals, households or
communities, properties, buildings and structures,
agricultural commodities, livelihoods, and public
facilities, infrastructures and environmental assets
present in an area that are subject to potential
damage or even losses. The more a community is
exposed to hazard factors, the higher is the disaster
risk or higher chance disaster occurrence.
Vulnerability
means the characteristics and circumstances
of a community, system, or asset, that make it
susceptible to the damaging effects of a
hazard and inability of a community to
prevent, mitigate, prepare for and respond to
hazardous events.
EXPLAIN THE RELATIONSHIP OF HAZARD, EXPOSURE,
AND VULNERABILITY

Exposure and vulnerability


these are distinct. A certain community can be
exposed but it does not mean that it is vulnerable.
Buildings and structures in Japan are exposed to
earthquake, but they are not vulnerable since their
architectural and engineering designs are earthquake
proof or resistant. However, to become vulnerable,
it must be exposed to hazard first.
Exposure to hazard
can make a community vulnerable. But not all
communities that are exposed to hazard can be
considered vulnerable. Vulnerability depends on the
preparedness and readiness to a hazard of the
community. It depends mostly on how they mitigate,
respond, and recover. If a certain community has the
ability to reduce the vulnerability by reducing the
risk, the said community is already considered as
less vulnerable or resilient.
''General Classification of Elements at Risk''
Disaster mitigation measures
are those that eliminate or
reduce the impacts and risks of
hazards by means of proactive
measures taken before an
emergency or disaster takes
place. Mitigation is the action
of reducing something's severity,
seriousness, or painfulness.
Activity 2: Tell me!
Direction: Analyze the picture below and answer the
questions that follow
Guide Questions:
1. What can you say about the picture? What does
the quotation mean?
2. What is the hazard in the picture/ situation?
3. What is being exposed in the picture/ situation?
4. Why do you think the character in the picture is
vulnerable?
5. Based on your analysis, Explain the hazard,
exposure and vulnerability given in the picture.
