 COURSE OVERVIEW

Background

Republic Act (RA) No. 10121 (Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management
Act of 2010) granted local government units (LGUs) greater flexibility towards
disaster mitigation, preparation, response, rehabilitation and recovery.

Section 2 (e) of RA 10121 provides that it is the policy of the State to develop,
promote, and implement a comprehensive NDRRMP that aims to strengthen the
capacity of the national government and the LGUs, together with partner
stakeholders, to build the disaster resilience of communities and to institutionalize
arrangements and measures for reducing disaster risks, including projected climate
risks, and enhancing disaster preparedness and response capabilities at all levels.

The approved National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan (NDRRMP)
2011-2028 shall become the basis in the preparation of Local Disaster Risk
Reduction and Management Plans (LDRRMP) to be validated and accustomed to
the local needs for prevention and mitigation, preparedness, response, rehabilitation
and recovery.

The LGUs have to “formulate and implement a comprehensive and integrated

LDRRMP in accordance with the national, regional and provincial framework, and
policies on disaster risk reduction in close coordination with the local development
councils” (Section 12 (6) of RA 10121).

To learn more about the overall LDRRMP process, the course design for the conduct
of LDRRMP training is hereby prepared.

Course Objectives

General Objective
At the end of the training, the participants will be able to obtain the knowledge, skills
and attitude required for the formulation of LDRRMPs in accordance with approved
standards and approaches by the NDRRMC.

Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Planning 3

Specific Objectives
Upon completion of the training, the participants will be able to:
1. Discuss the overview of LDRRMP, its concepts, principles, and funding sources to
support the plan’s implementation;
2. Describe the essentials in the development of LDRRMP; and
3. Explain the importance of the Working Group in consolidating the LDRRMP and
in determining the next steps.

Teaching- Learning Methodologies

As we transition into the “new normal,” the OCD-CBTS ushers its participants into a
variety of online tools designed to fit the course, and accommodate its learners. The
course utilizes the following teaching-learning methods:
Self-Paced Learning is a method in which the learners are able to control the
amount of material content they consume, as well as the duration of time needed to
learn the new information properly. Note however, each self-paced session is given a
corresponding technical training time credit.
Video teleconferencing (VTC) is a learning technology that facilitates the
communication and interaction of two or more users through a combination of high
quality audio and video over the internet. As face to face learning is currently
adjourned, VTC is used for lectures and other interaction.
Online Evaluation, in the forms of pre-training and post-training tests, is
administered in order to assess the effectiveness of the training course. Likewise,
self-paced quizzes and assignments are given during for the course duration.

Duration: 5 days

Five (5) training days with a total of 24 training hours (14 hours for self-paced and
10 hours for VTC)
