NOAH works to raise Filipinos’ awareness of natural hazards. We believe that an increased awareness of disaster risk is key in cultivating culture of preparedness and reducing the catastrophic impacts of extreme hazard events. We do this by undertaking advanced disaster science research and comprehensive and multidisciplinary assessment of hazards. The results of these are developed into accessible tools that are relevant for local government units, community leaders, policy makers, planners and families to prevent and mitigate disasters.
