Institutionalizing DRR in
Training Institutions and Universities
At the end of 2008, the CBDRM-TLC Phils has involved several universi-
ties, colleges and training institutions in integrating DRR in the academic
curriculum and programs through the help of professors or personnel
involved in DRM. These institutions include:
Universities and Colleges
• University of the Philippines
College of Social Work and Community Development; Department of
Geography, College of Arts and Letters; School of Urban and Regional

Design and Development of a Gender
Sensitive Knowledge Product
The CBDRM–TLC Philippines conducted a
quick review of existing CBDRM-related
training materials to determine the focus
of the knowledge product which it will de-
veloped within 2008 – 2009.
To address the identified gaps, a Writeshop
on Addressing CBDRM gaps in the
Philippines was conducted on 10-11 Sep-
tember 2008, involving 47 participants from
NGOs, people’s organizations, communities,
national government agencies, local govern-
ment units, and the academe in collective
study and design of the knowledge prod-
ucts.
The Writeshop involved presentations and discussions on the fol- Above: Participants of the Writeshop

• Gender and CBDRM Camarines School State Agricultural College on March 25, 2008
• Accountability and ethics in CBDRM
• Climate change and CBDRM
• CBDRM/Community resilience indicators, monitoring &
evaluation
Even as CBDRM for Local Authorities was identified as a gap, this
was not included in the Writeshop since there are already some
manuals in progress to address this. Peace Building and DRM and
Institutionalizing DRM/CBDRM in Tertiary Education were also
topics included in the Writeshop.
In the end, the consensus was first to develop the Gender and
CBDRM training package even as working groups were formed
on the other themes.
The complete report of the writeshop can be found at the CDP
website.
Training Manual
on integrating gender in CBDRM
Drafting the Gender-Sensitive CBDRM Knowledge Product
The training manual on Integrating Gender in CBDRM is currently under develop-
ment. Some of the resources used include additional case studies which served as
references on experiences and challenges in gender-sensitive emergency responses
and preparedness activities in Infanta and conflict-areas in Mindanao. Materials from
the National Commission on the Role of Filipino Women have been reviewed. New
materials on Gender and DRR from the UNISDR Global Platform in Geneva in June
2009 have been gathered. Acting on feedback during the Strategic Planning Work-
shop in Bangkok, CBDRM TLC-Philippines is working on focusing and simplifying the
training package on CBDRM and Gender.

Pagsasanay sa Disaster Preparedness at
Contingency Planning
The ACCORD Project funded by Dipecho (Strengthening Assets
and Capacities of Communities and Local Governments for Resil-
ience to Disasters) of CARE and the Corporate Network for
Disaster Response (CNDR) has allowed the CBDRM TLC to fea-
ture its 4-volume disaster preparedness manual in Filipino
(Pagsasanay sa Disaster Preparedness at Contingency Planning) in
the CDP website as well as to include in the CD on references for
CBDRM training in the Philippines. The training manual is com-
posed of four modules that were based on the experiences of
communities, schools, and the local government units under the
project Strengthening Assets and Capacities of Communities and
Local Governments for Resilience to Disasters (ACCORD).
Hard and soft copies of this new training manual was provided to
the CBDRM TLC and can be downloaded from the CDP website:
