    curriculum and programs through the help of professors or personnel
    involved in DRM. These institutions include:

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

NGOs, people’s organizations, communities,
national government agencies, local govern-

ippines:                                                            Below: CBDRM TLC presents on CBDRM and Gender during the
                                                                    Seminar of Gender and Disaster Risk Management organized by the
    •   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.

                                              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

                                              shop in Bangkok, CBDRM TLC-Philippines is working on focusing and simplifying the

    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

    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

  • 5. 5 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 Planning • Camarines School State Agricultural College • Ateneo School of Governance Case Studies • La Salle Institute of Governance on Institutionalizing DRM in higher education and training institutions in Training Institutions • Earthquake Megacities Initiative (for Distance Learning on DRM) the Philippines • Development Academy of the Philippines (for DRM and Gover- nance) • Center for Disaster Preparedness (various areas relevant to CBDRM) The CBDRM-TLC Philippines works for the institutionaliza- tion of DRM, particularly CBDRM, in the curriculum and pro- Community Extension Services grams of academic and training institutions.

  • 6. 6 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 lowing gaps and emerging relevant themes in CBDRM in the Phil- ippines: Below: CBDRM TLC presents on CBDRM and Gender during the Seminar of Gender and Disaster Risk Management organized by the • 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.
  • 7. 7 Featured Information Products 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: http://www.cdp.org.ph/publications/pdpcp/ Visit the CBDRM-TLC online at the CDP website.You can down- load reports, CBDRM publications, join the forum, watch work- Forthcoming Activities shop videos, and register to join the CBDRM-TLC online. 1. Continuation of joint activities in CBDRM with communities, people's organizations and co-funding and partnership in CBDRM activities with other NGOs and the government. • Collaboration with other CBDRM stakeholders to revisit the Philippine Strategic Plan to Integrate CBDRM in Socio-Eco- nomic Development Processes and jointly implement and monitor its progress with the Office of Civil Defense-Na- tional Disaster Coordinating Council. • Collaboration with other CBDRM stakeholders to hold a National DRM Practitioners Workshop (or National Confer- ence in CBDRM) to share and learn from one another in CBDRM.The 2nd National Conference in CBDRM was mainly communities sharing and learning from one another. The National DRM Practitioners Workshop is similar to DM Re- gional Practitioners Workshop, and can dove tail with the implementation of the Philippine Strategic Plan to Integrate CBDRM in Socio Economic Development Processes. 2. Formation of circles (or working groups) within TLC-Philippines among communities, women, government, and academe who can sustain and make vibrant the CBDRM-TLC Circle. 3.
