•Definition of Social Community Welfare – (social welfare provision) any

program that provides a minimum level of income, service or other
support for disadvantaged peoples (poor, elderly, disabled, students,
unpaid workers [mothers], caregivers, underprivileged groups
•Definition of Evacuation Center - provide safe emergency shelter for a
short time before the disaster strikes; provide safe shelter to
communities at potential risk of disaster (cyclone, flash flood, fire, etc.).

DESIGN PROBLEM TITLE: Barangay Social Community
Welfare and Evacuation Center

Introduction

Emergency evacuation: immediate/urgent movement of

people away from actual occurrence of hazard (typhoon,
fire, flood, earthquake, volcanic eruption, demolition of
houses)

 DESIGN PROCESS 1: DEFINE THE PROBLEM
DESIGN PROBLEM TITLE: Barangay Social Community Welfare and
Evacuation Center
Background of the Study
Philippines Scenario:
 along the Pacific Ocean’s Typhoon Belt or Ring of Fire
 suffered from deadly typhoons (average of 20 per year), earthquakes,
volcano eruptions, natural disasters
 flooding during the wet season (major perennial problems in Metro
Manila)
 January 2020 - Metro Manila (at the periphery of Taal, Batangas)
endured casualties from Taal Eruption
Malabon Scenario:
 most densely populated city
 low-lying, flat terrain (frequent flooding during high tides, heavy rains,
river and dams overflow)
 In recent years, floods worsened, occurred frequently, reached several
feet deep
 Most affected - families along/near the riverbanks
 River became narrower, shallower, capacity to hold water decreased
 frequent intense rains - riverbanks flooded regularly; reached farther
into low-lying and densely populated areas

 DESIGN PROCESS 1: DEFINE THE PROBLEM
DESIGN PROBLEM TITLE: Barangay Social Community Welfare
and Evacuation Center
Background of the Study
What is RA 10121 (Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and
Management Act of 2010)?
 All Local Government Units (cities and municipalities) are
mandated to prepare Disaster Risk Reduction Management
Plans and direct the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction
Management Council to integrate such plan into the Local
Development Plans, programs, and budgets
 Task is to efficiently facilitate city-level plans into community
level preparedness and emergency response plans (each
barangay should manage an evacuation center and administer
relief and recovery services during and after hazard occurrence)
Proposed Location: In Malabon, Barangay Tonsuya with
population of over 39,000 along Tuliahan River is most
affected by frequent flooding. In this barangay a prototype design
for a barangay evacuation center will be developed.

 DESIGN PROCESS 1: DEFINE THE PROBLEM
DESIGN PROBLEM TITLE: Barangay Social Community Welfare
and Evacuation Center
Statement of the Problem
 Philippines ranks 4th (UN Report) among the world’s most
disaster-prone countries
 Government has not yet invested much on permanent
evacuation centers
 Temporary evacuation centers (schools barangay halls, covered
courts)
 Perennial use of schools affected its operation in the aftermath
of disasters
 Evacuees get sick, die in these facilities (lack of proper
sanitation)
 Schools not really built for human habitation for long periods of
time
 Other conditions - issues of safety and security, socio-cultural
differences among evacuees, overcrowding and privacy, basic
health services, and recreational activities.
 If evacuation centers are not in use during the dry season? no
evacuees? – another concern if permanent center is to be built
