July is National Disaster Consciousness Month.  This year’s NDCM theme is: “Ligtas na Bayan, Maunlad na Pamayanan” which highlights the goal of the disaster risk reduction and management advocacy of the Philippines that is: safeguarding of communities from the adverse effects of disasters to promote sustainable development. The essence of the month-long observance is to promote public awareness on natural hazards and disseminate information on the steps to be undertaken to mitigate the adverse effects of such hazards.
