What is the significance of understanding the terms associated with disaster capacity?
-Understanding the terms associated with disaster capacity helps in identifying the strengths, attributes, and resources within a community or society that can be used to achieve agreed goals in disaster management.
Outlines
πͺοΈ Hazard Exposure and Vulnerability
This paragraph introduces the concepts of hazard exposure, vulnerability, and capacity in the context of disaster readiness. It explains that a hazard does not necessarily lead to a disaster unless it causes significant damage or loss. The paragraph uses the example of a typhoon and a precarious rock to illustrate these concepts. It also discusses how disaster risk can be mitigated by reducing exposure to hazards and increasing community capacity.
ποΈ Community Factors in Disaster Risk
This paragraph delves into the factors that influence an individual's or community's exposure to hazards, such as social group, gender, age, and other identities. It highlights that vulnerability can stem from poverty, lack of awareness, and slow response to disasters, leading to greater losses. The paragraph also explains the concept of capacity, which includes physical resources, community organization, and individual skills that help in coping with or resisting hazards. It further defines terms related to disaster management, such as disaster, disaster preparedness, disaster risk reduction, and disaster resilience.
ποΈ Vulnerability Factors in Housing and Community
Although this paragraph is brief, it points out additional factors that contribute to vulnerability, such as poor housing materials and community conflict. It suggests that the quality of housing and social dynamics within a community can significantly affect how susceptible it is to the damaging effects of hazards.

Highlights
The lesson focuses on understanding hazard exposure, vulnerability, and capacity in disaster readiness.
Disaster readiness involves differentiating between hazard exposure and vulnerability with real-life examples.
A hazard may not always lead to a disaster, as demonstrated by a strong typhoon causing no damage.
Vulnerability is the susceptibility to harm from a hazard, such as a falling rock.
Disaster risk can be mitigated by reducing hazard exposure and vulnerability while increasing capacity.
The relationship between disaster rest, hazard exposure, vulnerability, and capacity is crucial for risk management.
Disaster rest can be reduced by decreasing exposure and vulnerability and increasing community capacity.
People's exposure to hazards varies due to social, gender, ethnic, and age factors.
Vulnerability can manifest in different forms, such as poverty affecting the ability to withstand disasters.
Capacity refers to the resources available to individuals and communities to cope with or resist hazards.
Capacity includes physical resources, community organization, and individual skills or attributes.
Disaster capacity is defined by the combination of strengths, attributes, and resources within a community.
Disaster is a serious disruption causing widespread losses that exceed community coping abilities.
Disaster preparedness involves developing plans and procedures for efficient disaster response.
Disaster risk reduction is the systematic effort to analyze and reduce disaster causal factors.
Disaster risk is the potential for losses in lives, health, assets, and services due to hazards.
Exposure is the likelihood of experiencing hazard events of varying magnitudes.
Vulnerability is determined by characteristics that make a community or asset susceptible to hazard damage.
Examples of disaster risk reduction include improving land and environmental management and preparedness.

[Music]
welcome to my channel so our topic for
disaster Readiness and breast reduction
for lesson number two is Hazard exposure
vulnerability and capacity so this will
be the topic for quarter 3 and module
number one
for the objective you are going to
differentiate among Hazard exposure and
vulnerabilities and give example from
actual situations
hello students this module is about the
basic factors of disaster and disaster
rest after studying and working on all
the activities in this module you will
be able to determine the underlying
factors that directly influence disaster
foreign
disaster is different from Hazard a
hazard may or may not result to a
disaster
Suppose there is a very strong typhoon
when it hits a particular area and leave
no damages then there is no disaster
happened but if it leaves great damages
to lives and property
then that is what we call a disaster
look at the figure below suppose you are
along the hillside on the top there is a
very big rock that is likely to fall and
by the time it happens it will hit you
in this case The Rock on the top is a
hazard and you are vulnerable of it when
you say vulnerable that the rock falls
down and hit you causing you damage or
injury then that is what we called
disaster
by just looking at the relationship
between disaster rest and the factors
Hazard exposure vulnerability and
capacity what can you say about it
this means that disaster rest could be
greater if the factors such as Hazard
exposure and vulnerability are higher
even though capacity is also higher
however disaster rest can also be
reduced or lessened if we will be
decrease the hazard exposure and vulner
vulnerability with an increase of
capacity
as observed the symbols become smaller
or reduce this means that we can reduce
the rest broth about by an event or
Disaster by reducing the hazard exposure
and vulnerability of the people or
properties while increasing the capacity
of the community
people differ in their exposure to rest
as a result of their social group gender
ethnic or other identity age and other
factors
vulnerability may also vary in its forms
poverty for example May mean that house
is unable to withstand an earthquake or
a very strong typhoon or a lack of
awareness and preparedness may result in
a slow response to a disaster
leading to Greater loss of life and
properties or prolonged suffering of the
victims
capacity on the other hand can be
described as the resources available to
individuals households and communities
to cope with a threat or to resist the
impact of a particular hazard
such resources can be physical or
material but they can also be found in a
way a community is organized
or in the skills or attributes of
individuals and or organizations in the
community
these are the terms associated with the
disasters
capacity it is the combination of all
the strengths attributes and resources
available within a community Society or
organization that can be used to achieve
agreed goals from Republic act
10121 so example for that is the
permanent housing food security and
local knowledge
the next term is the disaster so it is a
serious disruption of the functioning of
the community or a society involving
widespread human material economic or
environmental losses and impacts which
exceeds the ability of the affected
Community or Society to cope using its
own resources
the next term is the disaster
preparedness it is a state in which
individuals and groups of a community
have developed plans allocated resources
and established procedures for an
efficient and effective implementation
of the plants for the purpose of saving
lives and preventing the further damage
to property in the event of the disaster
it includes plans or Preparation to made
to save lives and health responses and
rescue operations
the next term is the disaster risk
reduction so it is the concept and
practice of reducing disaster risk
through systematic efforts to analyze
and reduce the causal factors of
disasters reducing exposure to Hazard
listening vulnerability of people and
property wise management of land and the
environment and improving preparedness
for Adverse Events are all example of
disaster rest reduction
the next term is the disaster rest it is
the function of Hazard vulnerability and
capacity the potential disaster losses
in lives health status
livelihoods assets and services which
could occur to a particular Community or
a society over some specified future
time period it is a result from a
combination of Hazards
the next term is the exposure it is the
degree to which the elements at rest are
likely to experience Hazard events of
different magnitudes
the next term is vulnerability it is the
characteristics and circumstances of a
community system or asset that can make
it susceptible to the damaging effects
of a hazard so example for that is the
poor location house made of light
materials and Community conflict
