These trainings were launched under the project: Disaster Preparedness and Mitigation for Typhoon-Prone Philippine Regions, funded by the German Humanitarian Aid and Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe. Members of Disaster Preparedness Committees organized in the communities were thought how to design their own early warning systems in order to be prepared before disasters happen such as typhoons and floods.
