Vulnerability of the Urban Environment
1.Based on the characteristics of persons and their situation that influences in
facing natural hazards, describe two ways by which vulnerability is linked to
environment.
• POPULATION GROWTH AND DISTRIBUTION-Each of us are different.
Everyone comes from different background and experiences. But social
diversity is a successful communty in which individuals of different
race,ethnicity religious beleifs, socioeconomic
status,,language,,geographical origin , gender aqnd/or sexual orientation
bring their different knowledge , background , experience and interest for
benefit of their diverse community.
• SOCIAL DIVERSITY-Increasing number of individuals and its
distributionsthe pattern of where people , uneven. Places which are
sparsely populated contain few people . Locations with favourable
conditions are generally more densely populateds compared to thopse in
more challenging environments.
Read the Case Study-Relocating a School Out of a Flood Zone.
Write the lessons you have learned inside the box provided
At the request of the local government and following consultations
with the
community, it has been agreed to move the elementary school in
Barangay XYZ from its current location to an adjoining hillside. The current
location experiences flooding during heavy rainfall, as well as standing
water after any rainfall. The foundation of the school is also affected by the
high ground water table. The community plans to use the new school as
an evacuation center in case of flooding and heavy rainfall.
The local government has selected a site on a hillside on the edge
of the barangay where the travel distance from the community is not
generally more than for the current School. They have leveled the site and
are providing skilled workers and a back hoe for work on the site. The
community has collected funds to purchase the sand, gravel and rocks
needed for the construction and an NGO is providing the other
construction materials (e.g., cement, roofing, wood, etc.).
A site inspection indicates that all the necessary preparations have
been made for the construction to begin. The local government will build a
3 meter-high retaining wall to hold back the hillside behind the school next
year when additional funds are available.

They immediately take steps nto improve the situation and keep them away from
potential disasters from people , especially students. Ive learned that it must be as early as
possible before any unexpected events occur to preventthe risk.

B. Below are list of vulnerability attributes, identify five affecting your
community. Give possible solutions by using the table
Vulnerability Attributes Possible Solutions
1. Lack of acceptable standards of Introduce or implement DRRand do
practice activities to respond DRR,so that
people become more aware ,get to
know and understand it therefore this
disaster will not be new to them and
to plan and manage the risk.
2. Urban risk has been neglected Encourage every leaders of every city putting
DRR priorities amd give the basic needs of
people they lead and do some action to
provide fund for the development.
3. Insufficient knowledge, experience Utilize the disaster risk reduction in city
& functions and ongoing operation to provide a
capacity significant plentiful throughout the cities and
megacities in terms inter-institutional
,warning system, incident command and
control ,resources for response,relief ,
recovery, and rehabilitation practice.
