Vulnerability-Capacity Assessment (VCA) is a method of investigation into the risks that people face in their locality, their vulnerability to those risks and their capacity to cope with and recover from disasters. Its purpose is to increase community members’ awareness of risk and help them to plan activities for reducing vulnerability and increasing capacity before a disaster.

VCA is a tool that enables local priorities to be identified and leads to the design of actions that contribute to disaster reduction. Thus, VCA is an integral part (but not the only part) of disaster risk reduction that can contribute to the creation of Community-based disaster preparedness programmes. For this, VCA should result in actions that community members can undertake and lead themselves.

VCA is conducted using participatory approach, which facilitate to gather information and evaluate which can be used in decision making of the community to be able to respond or recover from disaster. This can also be used for recommendation purposes for the community to ask for assistance in small scale mitigation project for the barangay. It is expected the Government and non-government partners to use this to work together to strengthen Disaster Risk Reduction in every community.

This Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment (VCA) was conducted in Barangay Pula during the month of December. More than 40 people participated from the barangay. All those participants represent various groups including senior citizens, barangay officials, 4Ps, religious groups and youth and they were able to identify their risks posed by various hazards and means of mitigating those risks.

This report presents the main outputs of the Vulnerability Capacity Assessment of the community, its possible solutions through action plan.

3.1 Geography and topography of the barangay The barangay has a total land area of 766,960 hectares and is bounded by Barangay Cabaroan on the north; Ipet , on the south; Barangay Ambalayat on the east; and Barangay Bio on the West. 3.2 History of the barangay Long time ago, Barangay Pula was merely occupied by huge trees, herbs, shrubs and many other different kinds of plants. It was discovered by a man from San Ildefonso, Ilocos Sur, who came to the area in search for fertile land to till. On his way, he passed through the rivers of and Chico which meet at a certain part of the river that form a deep part and wide fresh water where different kinds of fish and edible species thrive. Because of this sufficiency, charm and freshness of the river, he hurriedly dug the soil and found a rich loamy clay type of soil suitable for farming. He hurriedly went back to San Ildefonso to tell his family and relatives that he had finally found the land they were looking for. The man and his family went back to the fertile land and built their homes and started cultivating the lands. Until one day, when they were having their lunch at the fields, the red juice of their yiand “simmered crab” accidentally dripped to the soil. One member of the family had noticed that the juice of the simmered crab and the soil are alike in color. In Ilocano Dialect he said “amang Kiaqtem Didyay Daga Kasla Pula ti Kappi” Since then the fertile land was named “Pula” due to the red color of the soil and as red as that of the juice of the crabs that are caught in the fresh waters of rivers. 3.3 Demography of the barangay

10.1 HAZARD and CAPACITY PROFILE Natural and environmental (types of hazards/ranking of disasters as per damages/losses incurred, time of occurrence, duration, frequency): FLOOD  The barangay is near the river especially the road along the barangay hall area.  There is no drainage system in the barangay.  The level of the dike is low therefore they can easily be flooded. o Livelihood FLOOD/TYPHOON  Unable to harvest the crops because of the timing of the typhoon nad the crops are not yet ready to be harvested. Nore often the crops are not resistant to large amount of water. DROUGHT  Deep well dries up and there is less alternative sources of water. o Self-protection TYPHOON  Lack of awareness because they lack information dissemination. They also misunderstand warnings. o Social protection FLOOD/TYPHOON  Lack of preparedness because some of the residents are not aware of the warnings and some still do not take action upon receiving warnings and indtructtions form the barangay officials. FIRE  Hot temperature due to the changing weather.  Unable to monitor the area near the river wherein fire incidents usually uccors specially in summer. o Well-being FLOOD/TYPHOON Arises of different diseases; (fever, caught, cold, dengue and other skin diseases)

10.3 HAZARD PRIORITATION

Pair wise ranking The community members have the opportunity to voice out their own judgment to identify the priority hazard. The VCA Team explained the process of the analysis tool and was understood by all the participants. The hazards that were compared are flood, typhoon, drought, soil erosion, and fire. The result of the comparisons is as follows:  Typhoon acquired the most points (16) among the other hazards in terms of severity, area affected, impact to people and frequency.  Drought came to second with 11 points  Flood and Soil erosion came next with the same points (5). Flood affects only the Southern portion of the barangay, while Soil Erosion occurs only on the riverside.  Fire has the least score of (3) among the 5five hazards identified and it has least impact to the community members.

Risk Matrix HAZARD: Typhoon LEAST MINOR MODERATE SEVERE CRITICAL CERTAIN HIGH LIKELY damage to crops LIKELY damage to properties POSSIBLE UNLIKELY

According to the HRVC matrix, Typhoon has 2 identified risks which are (1) damage to properties, and (2) damage to crops. Damage to crops is identified to be at severe risk and is possible to happen. The community will be greatly affected since a large portion of the land is used for farming. Damage too properties is considered at moderate risk and is high likely to occur.

10.4 PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS OF PRIORITIZED HAZARD 18 | P a g e VULNERABILITY AND CAPACITY ASSESSMENT A. Problem tree The result from the Pair Wise and Risk Ranking, the community focused on the damage to crops due to typhoon. The community identified 3 vulnerabilities that may have been the reason of damage to crops if there is a typhoon.  Crops not yet ready to be harvested  Rain waters are accumulated  Unexpected intensity of typhoon

Variety of crops are affected if there is a sudden onset of rain, and most likely to be damaged if there is an occurrence of an intense typhoon. The crops are prone to be flooded by accumulated rain waters because there is a lack of drainage system in the community.

When their crops will be damaged due to typhoon, there will be lesser harvested products for the farmers. It may also force the farmers to borrow from other people, although it may be impossible for them to pay back. Damaged crops may also result to food shortage which may lead to famine, and further cause theft or worse, death.

19 | P a g e VULNERABILITY AND CAPACITY ASSESSMENT

B. Objective Tree

The main objective is to lessen the number of damaged crops. They determined few activities and capacities to meet the desired goal including the establishment of a Flood Control wherein they will be making a resolution and ask for the assistance from the local government.

Other activities are to harvest the crops before the typhoon, plant varieties of crops that are easier to harvest, and to make a proper timing for planting certain crops wherein they will be monitoring the weather. They will further capacitate the community members through seminars and trainings such as to be requested from the Department of Agriculture. If the goal is met through the identified capacities and activities, there will be lesser number of sick family members; there will be greater number of harvested crops and more income for the people. Therefore, there will be more food for the people, they will be happier and richer, and finally a progressive community.
