    1) The document discusses different types of vulnerabilities - physical, social, economic, and environmental - that elements may have when exposed to hazards. 2) Physical vulnerability refers to potential impacts on infrastructure, social vulnerability on social groups, economic vulnerability on assets and activities, and environmental vulnerability on the environment. 3) Examples are given to illustrate each type of vulnerability, such as destroyed buildings during a typhoon demonstrating physical vulnerability and loss of communication services showing social vulnerability.

    Activity Title: Vulnerabilities of Different Elements Exposed to Hazards(Classify ME!)
    Learning Targets: Recognize vulnerabilities of different elements exposed to specific hazards.

    Main Idea
    Vulnerabilities of different elements are determined due to its exposure to particular and specific hazard.
    Physical vulnerability- Potential physical impact on the quality of the built structures and population (i.e. architectural
    and engineering design of buildings)
    Social vulnerability- potential impacts of hazards on different social groups (i.e. pregnant or lactating women, the
    handicapped, children, and elderly).
    Economic vulnerability- potential impacts of hazards on economic assets and activities (i.e. Business interruption, job
    loss, and interruption of market processes)
    Environmental vulnerability- the potential impacts of hazards on the environment.

    Example/s:

    Physical vulnerability
    For example, UP Visayas buildings were totally destroyed during the super typhoon Yolanda in 2008 leaving the structure
    totally damaged.
    Social vulnerability
    For example, during typhoon the line of 11 communications were cut off when cell sites shutdown or disruption of
    transport system due to inability of small vehicles to pass through the flooded areas or unpassable roads and bridges. With
    some difficulties in the delivery of services such as relief goods and medicines, a lot of problems occurred like shortage of
    food and spread of infectious diseases. Therefore, when social elements were exposed to hazard, these may lead to
    disruption of normal processes and activities in the community.
    Economic vulnerability
    We can say that Philippines is more vulnerable to an event such as earthquake compared to Japan. Though both countries
    are exposed to earthquake hazard because both are located in the Pacific ring of fire, but due to differences in economic
    status, Japan is more resilient because of its ability to afford changes in architectural and engineering designs of building
    and infrastructures to make them less vulnerable to earthquake.
    Environmental vulnerability
    Human activities like deforestation, burning of fossil fuels, and kaingin affect the natural abilities of the environment to
    protect itself from any natural hazard due to absence of trees which may cause landslide and flashfloods. Sometimes the
    effects are irreversible.

    Activity/Exercises:
    Direction: Classify the following phrases and sentences whether it is physical, socioeconomical or environmental
    vulnerability. Write PV- if it is physical vulnerability, SEV- socioeconomical vulnerability, and EV-
    environmental vulnerability.

    Activity Title: Effects of Hazard, Exposure and Vulnerability to Disaster Risks (Complete ME!)
    Learning Targets: Explain the difference between hazard, exposure and vulnerability.
    References Title:
    Author: Page No.:
    Main Idea
    Hazard is a harmful condition, substance, human behavior or condition that can cause loss of life, injury or other health
    effects, harm to property, loss of livelihood and services, social and economic disruption or damage to the environment.
    Any risk which is imminent is threat.
    Exposure is the presence of elements at risk or chance of being harmed from a natural or man-made hazard event.
    Elements include the individuals, households or communities, properties, buildings and structures, agricultural
    commodities, livelihoods, and public facilities, infrastructures and environmental assets present in an area that are subject
    to potential damage or even losses.
    Vulnerability means the characteristics and circumstances of a community, system, or asset, that make it susceptible to
    the damaging effects of a hazard and inability of a community to prevent, mitigate, prepare for and respond to hazardous
    events.
    Risk implies the probability of possible adverse effects. This results from the interaction of social and environmental
    systems, from the combination of physical danger, and exposed item vulnerabilities.
    Disaster is a serious disruption to the functioning of a community or society which causes widespread human, material,
    economic or environmental losses that exceed the capacity of the community or society concerned to cope with the use of
    their own resources.
