RA 10121: PROGRESS OF IMPLEMENTATION The Philippine DRRM Law was signed on May 27, 2010 Implementing Rules and Regulation was signed on 27 September 2010 and took effect 15 days after National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Framework was signed on June 16, 2011 National DRRM Plan was approved on February 7, 2012 by the National DRRM Council After more than three decades of the country’s disaster management being governed by Presidential Decree 1566 of 1978, Republic Act No. 10121 was finally passed during the 3rd Regular Session of the 14th Congress and signed into law on May 27, 2010 Following the transition after the last national elections, the drafting of the IRR proceeded at once. On 27 September 2010, the IRR was promulgated and took effect 15 days after publication. The previous NDCC framework was immediately reviewed to come up with the enhanced framework. The deliberation process took about nine months. The NDRRM framework was signed on June 16, 2011

NDRRM FRAMEWORK Safer, adaptive and resilient Filipino communities toward sustainable development RISK FACTORS Hazards Exposures Vulnerabilities Capacities Mainstreaming DRR and CCA in Planning and Implementation The National DRRM Framework is a conceptual paradigm on how the “whole of society” can work towards ‘Safer, adaptive and disaster-resilient Filipino communities towards sustainable development’ It ensures DRRM process to be comprehensive and integrated; all-hazards coverage; involve all sectors; and have maximum impact on communities It emphasizes that resources invested in disaster prevention, mitigation, preparedness and climate change adaptation will be more effective towards attaining the above stated vision It also highlights the need for effective and coordinated humanitarian assistance and disaster response to save lives and protect the more vulnerable groups Further, it illustrates the importance of identifying the risk factors and understanding how their interplay can translate into disasters if left unabated or unmanaged Prevention & Mitigation Preparedness Rehabilitation & Recovery Response

1.4 Related National Plans and Policies Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2011-2016 National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP) 2011 to 2028 National Security Plan The NDRRMP is cognizant of the development context of disasters and seeks to leverage on the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2011-2016, which is the national development roadmap of the country. The NDRRMP also seeks to gain synergy with the National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP) 2011 to 2038 which outlines the long-term agenda for climate change adaptation and mitigation of the country. The NDRRMP likewise leverages on the National Security Plan (NSP),which defines the overarching strategy and programs in response to threats to opportunities that would have bearing on the peace and stability of the nation and well-being of Filipinos.

2. The National DRRM Plan Four distinct and mutually reinforcing Thematic Areas The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan emphasizes 4 Thematic Areas with 4 Long-Term Goals which follows the NDRRM Framework, as shown in the illustration. These areas are (1) Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, (2) Disaster Preparedness, (3) Disaster Response and (4) Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery. The NDRRM Plan operationalizes this framework through 14 Objectives, 24 Outcomes, 56 Outputs and 93 Activities. There are also 12 Priority Programs and Projects identified in the NDRRM Plan for immediate implementation. The timelines of the NDRRM Plan are: Short Term, which is from 2011 – 2013, Medium Term from 2014 – 2016 and Long Term 2017 – 2028, depending on the prioritization of the activities as indicated in the NDRRM Plan.

LINKING DRRM-CCA TO THE PDP THROUGH THE NDRRMP

2011-2016 Philippine Development Plan’s Goals and Strategies on Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) Chapter 9 “Ensuring National Security” Section 2.3 To achieve the highest standard of capability and preparedness against natural and man-made calamities and disasters, the following will be undertaken: Strengthen the role of the security sector in emergency relief and rescue operations to maintain public order and safety during calamities. Mechanisms to improve alert warning and monitoring before and during disasters will be enhanced to pre-empt loss to lives and properties. The sector will be transformed to become more dynamic, proactive, and responsive to prevent and prepare for disasters through improvement on technical and institutional capacity, and by promoting synergy among stakeholders and building resiliency of communities to disasters; and Support national development programs by securing and protecting critical infrastructures and facilities, and other high value projects of the public and private sector The existing PDP has the following provisions for DRRM as a result of previous consultations during its formulation. The basis of the inputs then were priority programs initially identified from RA 10121 and existing plans at the time. The input were concentrated on two chapters namely: Chapter 9: Peace and Security and Chapter 10: Conservation, Protection & Rehabilitation of the Environment & Natural Resources
