VII.     RATIONALE   : 

The present challenges of global warming and climate change as well as threats of human-induced adversities have taught us a lesson to learn - that is to be prepared always to meet and cope up with these devastating eventualities. In order to be prepared, responsibility for disaster risk management must not lie with disaster managers alone. It is rather a concern for everyone - from citizens who must be empowered to make decisions which reduce risk, to political leaders, government institutions, the private sector, civil society organizations, professional bodies, and scientific and technical institutions.

The communities’ effective role as learning agent lies at the core of every effective DRR endeavor. Once learning transpires, communities can move forward to further their own development. Collective learning of disaster risks will prompt them to be proactive in arriving at risk reduction measures.

In line with this, the government efforts to educate and enhance the people on DRRM, a follow-through or enhancement of the BERT training for three (3) days which shall be conducted, targeting the existing/new BERT members municipal-wide that are willing to be trained mentally, physically and skillfully in responding before, during and after the occurrence of disasters. More DRRM skills training must be pursued so that lives can be protected and damage to properties and infrastructures can be minimized. Moreover, the BERT members can also assist in monitoring and surveillance of lawless elements in the barangays. To be more effective BERT members, sufficient training should be provided for them to be more skillful and capable in carrying out their tasks, hence, this proposed enhancement training.

VIII.    COURSE DESCRIPTION:

 The activity involves the conduct of a 3–day training to enhance the capability and skills of the Barangay Emergency Response Team (BERT) members on disaster risk reduction and management approaches with integration of rover scouting emergency operation tools and techniques with a theme  “Laging Handa sa Anumang Sakuna”. This will be attended by Four hundred sixty-eight (468) BERT members from 29 barangays, 15 Resource Persons and 17 Secretariat/Training Staff.

 A combination of lecture-presentation-discussion, practical-workshop and simulation drills will be conducted to achieve the 3-day activity. These will provide the BERT-participants with concrete knowledge and practical skills to be effective in their tasks as first responders right in their communities and intelligence officers in their barangays.

The training shall be conducted right at the Municipal Gymnasium, Poblacion, Mahayag, zamboanga del Sur. The LGU concerned shall be in-charged with the venue, sound system, transportation of the BERT participants to and from the training venue, invitation of resource speakers, foods and snacks, honorarium of resource speakers, training supplies/materials and certificates.

General Objectives:

The training-workshop is primarily aimed at providing the BERT members with adequate knowledge and proficiency to become proactive and effective community-based responders in their barangays.
