Questions like, “How are we going to manage these wastes? How should we handle these wastes especially if these are hazardous and harmful to human health and the environment? How do we mobilize the community to lessen these wastes?” are just a few that LGUs would want to address. It is for these reasons that the DAP through the Sustainable Human Development Program is implementing @ Disaster Waste Management (DWM) Training. The course aims to introduce post-disaster waste as a local governance issue that has an impact on human security and the environment during and afler disaster events. Specifically, the training is an opportunity to know what post-disaster waste is, its implications, and the role of local governments in its management. The Academy will also present the results of the PDWM study that the DAP conducted wherein Local Goverment Units were respondents, The target participants for the DWM training are heads and staff from offices that have mandates relevant to Solid Waste Management, Disaster Risk Reduction and Management, and Environment and Natural Resource Management.1.2) development academy of the philippines To register for the DWM Training, please accomplish the application form, accessible through this link: https:/finyurl.com/DWMBatch4-ApplicationForm Gis Hi: Action of Local Now on its fourth year of public offering, the GIS Hazard Modeling training aims to increase the capacity of LGUs in planning for potential hazard events, through the Production of localized hazard maps which can be the basis of the disaster risk reduction and management plan and climate change action plan, among others.
