Image
A person's safety during calamities is mainly dependent on their community's disaster preparedness.

It places the responsibility of being prepared for calamities and other emergencies on the community as a whole, ensuring that organizations, households and individuals can work together in making their community more resilient in the face of disaster.  CBDRRMP is important, especially for countries highly vulnerable to disasters, such as the Philippines.
