Executive Order No. 137, s.1999 declared the month of July as National Disaster Consciousness Month. The observance was renamed to National Disaster Resilience
Month (NDRM) by virtue of Executive Order No. 29, s.2017 to highlight the shift from
disaster awareness building to disaster resilience. The annual observance of the NDRM
emphasizes the importance of collaboration in addressing the challenges of Climate
Change Adaptation and Mitigation (CCAM) and Disaster Risk Reduction and Management
(DRRM) and mandates activities related to building disaster resilience covering four
thematic areas: prevention and mitigation, preparedness, response, and rehabilitation and
recovery.
