Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2020, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
This descriptive study investigated the disaster risk management DRM strategies of the elected officials in the 12 disaster prone small administrative divisions along the riverbanks of Catubig Valley in Northern Samar, Philippines. Survey questionnaire and personal interviews were employed for data retrieval. The study revealed that the DRM was “moderately managed” . It further highlighted eight 8 DRM related problems which ranged from low awareness of accountability and poor know how on DRM to insufficient time preparation and lack of equipment machinery, among others. These were the raw bases in framing the intervention design. Leah A. de Asis | Brenfred N. Romero | Karene Maneka A. de Asis-Estigoy | Amador A.
