RP DISASTER RISK PROFILE
RP
is vulnerable to almost all types of natural
hazards because of its geographical location
RP DISASTER RISK PROFILE
The Philippine Archipelago occupies the western rim of the Pacific Ocean (Western Segment of the Pacific Ring of Fire), a most active part of the earth that is characterized by an ocean-encircling belt of active volcanoes and earthquake generators (faults).
As an archipelago with
7,107
islands,
the threat of
tsunami
affecting the
country’s coastal areas is not far-fetched.
Disasters
, whether natural or human-made,
affect everyone, especially the poor, children,
women and elderly, who have the least capability
DISASTER – is an event, whether natural, human-induced or technological; progressive or sudden, which impacts with severity that the affected community will have a disruption of its normal functioning and have to do an exceptional measures.
