A typhoon hits a coastal town in the Philippines.

Hazard: The typhoon itself, bringing strong winds and heavy rain.

Risk: The risk is high due to the town’s location in a flood-prone area
and inadequate drainage systems.

Vulnerabilities: Vulnerabilities include many families living in informal

settlements, lacking proper housing and resources for evacuation.

Disaster: When the typhoon makes landfall, it causes widespread

flooding, landslides, and damage to homes, leading to injuries,
displacement, and a humanitarian crisis.

 Being a Catholic Country, most of us rely in the
most powerful tool that is readily available- Prayer. The
Oratio Imperata (Prayer for Deliverance from Calamities)
was developed by the Church to ask assistance to God
and primarily addressed to a personage of the Holy
Trinity.

 Local government units (LGUs) are expected to
be at the frontline of emergency measures in the
aftermath of disasters to ensure the general welfare of
its constituents, according to the Local Government
Code of 1991. As first responders, they should be
proactive in performing disaster-related activities, from
preemptive evacuation to the restoration of people's
livelihood. Center for Community Involvement
