To strengthen disaster response preparedness, the LGU Hingyon through the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (MDRRMO) conducted a Rapid Damage Assessment and Needs Analysis (RDANA) Training from May 25-28, 2026 at the KALAHI Building. It was actively participated in by 34 individuals from the LGU, barangays. Hingyon PNP, and Hingyon BFP.
It aimed to equip participants with the necessary knowledge and skills in conducting rapid disaster assessments, gathering accurate field data, identifying the immediate needs of affected populations, and preparing timely and reliable reports during emergencies and disasters.
The activity featured lectures, workshops, and simulation exercises facilitated by trainers Mr. Junifer Ngannoy, Mr. Dhenver Lagasi, Mr. Madegyem Badongen, Ms. Ligaya Gumadol, and Ms. Jaimelyn Lanag. The trainers emphasized the importance of accurate information management, effective communication, and coordinated response efforts during disaster situations
RDANA is conducted during the early phase of a disaster to quickly assess damage and determine the needs of affected communities. The results serve as the basis for appropriate action, resource mobilization, and decision-making by the disaster risk reduction and management authorities.
The conduct of the RDANA Training reflects the continuing commitment of the LGU and partner agencies in promoting proactive and efficient disaster response systems toward a safer and more resilient Hingyon.
