Vulnerability
The state of susceptibility to harm from exposure to
stresses associated with environmental and social change
and from the absence of capacity to adapt. -UNISDR
Terminology (2017)
Examples
● Catanduanes is vulnerable to typhoons.
● Surigao is vulnerable to tsunami and storm
surge.
● Central Luzon is vulnerable to an eruption
of Mt. Pinatubo.
● Metro Manila is vulnerable to 7.2
magnitude earthquake called “Big One.”
A place or an area becomes susceptible to hazards according to
their location or setting. The main concern is whether it is
Setting – located in a rural or urban setting. Some characteristics may
be present to both as well as exclusive to a specific area that
specific makes it more prone to the effects of a disaster.
Examples:
● Baseco compound is a congested area with many makeshift
houses. Due to its location and the economic status of people
living there, it is vulnerable to different hazards.
● Metro cities of Cebu and Manila due to its congested areas
and high population are vulnerable to fire and earthquake.
● Residential settlements along bodies of water (rivers, coastal
area, and delta) are vulnerable to flood and effects of climate
change.
FACTORS
Social
● absence or lack of implementation of DRRM committee
● lacking or unknown contingency plan
● unclear protocols
● no organized evacuation drills
● no early warning system
● uncooperative neighborhood
● local community leaders are not trained in DRRM
● absence or lack of DRRM related facilities and equipment such as fire
extinguishers, first aid kits, ambulance, and others
Motivational
● No coordination between local leaders and community people.
● Funds for DRRM were diverted to other programs and initiatives.
● Local leaders are unwilling to integrate DRRM into their programs and
initiatives.
● Internal conflicts and divisions exist between local community leaders.
● A community is unaware of risks and their possible consequences

Vulnerability of
Sectors of Society
to Disasters
Lesson 2
The level of vulnerability to a typhoon of
illegal settlements in the seaside area is
higher than those settlements located in
higher places and gated communities.
Poverty is a significant factor in
vulnerability and capacity.
Communities living in rural areas do not
have easy access to information available
about disaster readiness and risk reduction.
Different sectors of society have
different levels of vulnerability to
disaster risk, and they also need
different levels of attention to survive
in times of emergencies.
The following factors may affect different
sectors of society:
Socio-Economic Demographic
Factors Factors
APRIL JOY WENCESLAO
Socio-Economic Factors
• Socio-economic status or wealth plays a vital role on why
some sectors of society are more vulnerable than others.
Socio-Economic Factors
• The movement of people from one place to another is called migration.
• Migrants, refugees, and internally-displaced persons (IDP) do not
receive the same response and relief from the government. Typically these
types of people suffer most when disaster strikes because of their
unfamiliarity on their current place of settlement .
• In the case of migrants, due to their unfamiliarity when disaster strikes,
they may be unaware of the places such as where to ask for help and
whom to ask for help. There are instances when the host country
prioritizes their citizens before they extend relief to migrants.

Hazards
LESSON 4
01
Exposure
can be described as the situation of communities
including its people, residences, infrastructure, and
economic resources that are located in areas that are
hazard-prone.
- UNISDR, 2017
62
Exposure
it refers to the presence of people, livelihood,
environmental services , infrastructure, or social and
cultural assets in places that can be affected by the
occurring events.
63
SAMARA CASTLE AMOR
Examples
of Exposure
Urban or major cities like
Davao, Zamboanga, Metro
Cebu and Metro Manila are all
located near the coast or close
to major bodies of water.
Indicating that they are more
prone to effects of climate
change.
64

Examples
of Exposure
The exposure of the
communities around the active
Mayon volcano in Legazpi,
Albay is different from those
who live in the mountains of
Mindanao.
65
MARIANNE ARABELLE ABO-ABO
Exposure Drivers
• Urbanization and the creation of major cities
make people and other sectors of society
concentrated in areas exposed to hazards due to
population growth, migration, urbanization and
economic development. (UNISDR, 2009)
• Previous disasters can drive exposure by
forcing people from their lands and to
increasingly unsafe areas. 66
APRIL ROSE FATIMA
ALBARANDO
Exposure Drivers
• Economic oppurtunities are most likely be the
reason why people choose to live in many
hazard-prone areas.

Physical hazard
• factor within the environment that can harm the body without
necessarily touching it.
• Physical aspect of geography, location, and place; settlement
patterns; and physical structures located in hazard-prone areas or
with deficiencies in resistance that are susceptible to damage.

Elements Exposed to Hazards
Cultural hazard
• It is a result from your location, socioeconomic status, occupation,
and behavioral choices.
• Examples are:
- young children (18 and below)
- women (including pregnant)
- elderly
- persons with special needs
75
SAMARA CASTLE AMOR
Elements Exposed to Hazards
Economic hazard
• it refers to major natural disasters which can and do have severe
negative economic impacts.
• Examples are:
- Small and medium enterprises
- livelihood
- livestock
- agriculture
- food supply
76
Elements Exposed to Hazards
Environmental hazard
• Outcomes from chemical, biological, or physical agents either
from on going or previous human activity
• Examples are:
- natural landscape
- bodies of water
- landforms
- biodiversity

PARTICULAR
HAZARDS
LESSON 5
Why is it important to determine the elements
exposed to particular hazards?
• Natural phenomena such as typhoons, earthquakes,
volcano eruptions are natural events beyond the control
of human power. Such events may directly or indirectly
cause risk and hazards to people.

LESSON 6
Vulnerability
• Vulnerability to natural hazards is an integral factor
in understanding the true extent of risk.
• It generally refers to the impact a hazard has on
people, infrastructure and the economy.
• Can be divided into four main areas: physical,
social, economic and system vulnerabilities
depending on the class of elements at risk being
considered.
Physical
Vulnerability
• Is the potential for physical impact on the built
environment, infrastructure or population.
• Represented as the monetary value of physical
assets in the hazardous zone.
• It describes the ability of the built
environment, including homes, roads,
bridges, hospitals, schools, and government
buildings, to withstand impacts.
Social
Vulnerability • Refers to the factors that influence the way people,
households and communities react to a hazard and to the
things that influence the losses they experience.
Hazard
constitute hazards when their nature would
allow them, even just theoretically, to cause
damage to health, life, property, or any other
interest of value.
Exposure
hazard zones and are thus at risk of loss.
Vulnerability
• Refers to the characteristics and circumstances of a
community, system or asset that make it susceptible to the
damaging effects of a hazard.
• There are many aspects of vulnerability, arising from
various physical, social, economic, and
environmental factors.
Types of
Vulnerability
Social Vulnerability
refers to the inability of people, organizations and
societies to withst and adverse impacts to hazards due
to characteristics inherent in social interactions,
institutions and systems of cultural values. It is linked
to the level of well being of individuals, communities
and society.
Types of
Vulnerability
Economic Vulnerability
The level of vulnerability is highly dependent upon the
economic status of individuals, communities and nations The
poor are usually more vulnerable to disasters because they lack
the resources to build sturdy structures and put other
engineering measures in place to protect themselves from
being negatively impacted by disasters.
Types of
Vulnerability
Environmental Vulnerability
Natural resource depletion and resource degradation
are key aspects of environmental vulnerability.
Physical Vulnerability
may be determined by aspects such as
population density levels, remoteness of a
settlement, the site, design and materials used
for critical infrastructure and for housing.
