 APPLICATION 1
Read the sample DRRM case and fill out the assessment matrix that follows.

Barangay Delikado is an urban barangay with 750 families, Most of the families are informal settlers who belong
to the low income group. Most of them work as vendors, jeepney and tricycle drivers, carpenters, government
employees, and salespeople in a nearby mall. The community is accessible to main thorough fares and services.
There are two rivers that transverse through the community, causing flooding every time they overflow. The
flood reaches the second floor of houses during heavy rains. The houses are usually made of semi-light materials
such as wood and iron sheets for roofing. Two fires occurred in the community last year, affecting a total of 60
families. The place is dense and the alleys that lead to the main road are very narrow (almost 1.5 meters wide
only), which made it difficult for fire fighters to reach the area. The barangay officials are active but they do not
agree on what development program to implement in the community. One-third of the committee members
would like to accept the offer of the government to be relocated in a place about 30 kilometers away. On the
other hand, the remaining officials resist the idea of relocation and insist that they should remain in the area. The
people are also confused on what should be done.
