Type Advantages Disadvantages
posters and billboards
• used to makeannouncementsand publicawareness
• usually used
• should be catchy tobe effective
radio
• has a proven trackrecord of effectingbehavioral changein rural areas
• must be tuned intolisteners’ routine/culture to be heard
video programs,motion pictures, and
television
• realistic• can be re-watched• meant for large
audiences
• expensive
Advantages Disadvantages! Closest to face-to-face
discussion! Can tell a complete story! Can enhance accountability! DVD players for viewing are
relatively low cost! Developmental issues and
objectives could be integratedto plots of soap operas,entertainment programs, etc.
! Distribution for widest viewingrequires planning and effort
! Video requires professionalproduction and is costly
! Soap operas require high-quality concepts, writing andcontent

with audience• Needs to keep pace with technology• Requires commitment of time and
creativity
Social Media What toolsdo be used?
! using a combination of these types ofcontact is the best way to support the
ongoing process of behavior change .! As people cope with ever-increasing
information loads, it is clear that socialnetworks will continue to play a criticalrole in social learning . Your choice of tools will depend on your
audiences, approaches , and resource availability.

Hazard awarenessis not enough!
! Researchers have found thatpeople take action onlywhen:
! They know what specificactions can be taken
! They are convinced thatthese actions will beeffective
! They believe in their ownability to carry out tasks
Key research findings:
! People need to bestimulated to seekinformation
! People seek consensus andwant validation from manysources before they act
! People go along with whatthey think others are doing(focus on positive, negativethreats do not work)
Key research findings:
! 3 types of people start ‘pro-social epidemics’:! connectors who bring people together,! information specialists (in other words,
experts),! salespeople who have the ability to
persuade! The most memorable lessons are learned
from stories that are simple, unexpected,concrete, credible and emotional
Transtheoretical model(Stages of Change)
! The gradual process of behaviorchange moves from contemplation to
planning, then to action, and finally tomaintenance

there.! The fourth time, they have a fleeting sense
that they’ve seen it somewhere before.! The fifth time, they actually read the ad.
SuccessfulAdvertising
! The sixth time they thumb their nose at it.! The seventh time, they start to get a little irritated
with it.! The eighth time, they start to think, “Here’s that
confounded ad again.” ! The ninth time, t hey start to wonder if they’re
missing out on something.! The tenth time, they ask their friends and
neighbors if they’ve tried it.

! The eleventh time, they wonder how the company ispaying for all these ads.
! The twelfth time, they start to think that it must be agood product.
! The thirteenth time, they start to feel the product hasvalue.
! The fourteenth time, they start to remember wantinga product exactly like this for a long time.
! The fifteenth time, they start to year for it becausethey can’t afford to buy it.

Who should wework with?
! Good strategies grow fromcollaboration, andcooperation is essential fordeveloping consistent,harmonized andstandardized messagesthat will be scaled up andrepeated frequentlyenough to becomecommon knowledge.
Partnership Who Why
Local government • For lobbying and advocacy• To support, to build capacity, and to s cale up andinstitutionalize efforts.
Local communities, villages andurban neighbourhoods
• To assure that our efforts are tried and tested• For Sustainability• Beneficiaries become a new source of volunteers.
Target audiences • Feedback and review
Scientific and technical andlocal knowledge experts
• To access legitimate sources of knowledge andexperience
• Guidance in messaging and content• Technical and local knowledge, transform this into
actionable information• To inform and be informed by research, are all
essential to progress in risk reduction.
Partnership Who Why
Civil society organizations/non-government organizations • Important bridges to different parts of your targetaudience• Some partnerships may be official and formal,
while others may be as simple and informal.Private sector • To help reach wide audiences with clear and sim ple
messages• Corporate social responsibility• When employers support a cause, this strengthens
credibility.Children and youth • investment in the future
• Younger children are most effective incommunicating with their parents
• while youth are most effective with their peers.
When and where is theinitiative appropriate?
! Strategic planning! Take note of opportunities to elevate
public education and awareness as amain focus, and to reach out to high-riskareas and communities
! DRR-themed school programs! bayanihan activities
Keep in Mind:Teachable Moments

materials! web pages and
activities! social media and
telecommunications
8/17/2019 Public Awareness Tools
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/public-awareness-tools 16/26
Approach 1:Campaigns
Advantages Disadvantages! Reaches the largest numbers
of people with standardmessages
! Attract mass media attention! Builds on strengths of all
partners
! Must be carefully plannedand thought through
! Require excellentorganization
! Requires strong support ofpartners
! Stamina is required:campaigns shouldnot end until they succeed
Approach 2:Participatory learning
! People are especiallymotivated by
approaches in whichthey themselves par-ticipate in a solution,and especially whenthey believe it istheir own idea.
Approach 2:Participatory learning
! The focus of participatorylearning is to engagepeople in discovery and
problem solving fordisaster risk reduction.
! At the heart of all ofthese activities is thecommunity’s ownexperience ofempowerment.
8/17/2019 Public Awareness Tools

Approach 2:Participatory learning
! This involves using language, stories, songsand traditions to strengthen the emergingculture of prevention and preparedness.
Approach 2:Participatory learning
! DRR Activities:! action-oriented
research such asvulnerability andcapacity assessment
! contingency planning! disaster risk reduction
and managementplanning
Approach 2:Participatory learning
! DRR Activities:! implementing risk
reductionmeasures! monitoring and
improving on plansthrough drills andsimulations.

Approach 2:Participatory Learning
Advantages Disadvantages! HVCA: This approach begins with
communities’ self-identified threats andvulnerabilities, developing strong risk
awareness
! Identifying resources and capacities leadsto greater confidence and self-sufficiency
! Builds local and personal ownership
! Provides opportunity to integrate disasterreduction, health, water and sanitation,livelihood protection and climate-changeadaptation
! Identifying risk without carrying out otheractivities does not lead automatically toknowledge of solutions
! It can be labor intensive to create impact onsmall population
! Facilitators need substantial training inparticipatory research methods, culture andcultural sensitivity, team building, groupdynamics, recording and interpreting data
! Comprehensive HVCA processes requiresignificant time commitment from volunteersand community participants
Approach 2:Participatory Learning
Advantages Disadvantages! Requires participant communities to
own their own data and plans! Attracts social volunteers, building
organizational capacity and improvingrelationships among allpartners
! Can draw on the wide range ofCommunity risk assessment toolsavailable for adaptation
! Possible for schoolchildren and youth toparticipate in similar processes
! Solutions may be complex
! Community needs and priorities may gobeyond donor priorities and regionalcommittees’ ability to support
! Mitigation activities require a range of high-quality guidance materials and trainingprogrammes
! Advocacy actions that are called for mayencounter resistance and need additional skillsand support
!
Approach 3:Informal education
! The focus of informaleducation is takingadvantage of briefmoments andencounters to stimulatethinking and engagepeople in discovery ofactions and behaviorsto increase safety andresilience.
8/17/2019 Public Awareness Tools

Advantages Disadvantages
! Fun for volunteers and forparticipants
! Can support and strengthenwider campaigns
! Takes full advantage of volunteerstrengths and skills
! Includes younger children! Schools can be hub for attracting
parents! Young children can involve
parents! Youth can involve one another
! Variable penetration acrossgeography and time
! Planning for scale and sustainabilityare challenging
! Needs school authorities’ consent! Where other organizations provide
similarschool-based programs, consistencyrequires inter-agency coordination
! Special outreach may be needed toreach children and youth not inschool
Approach 3:Informal education
Advantages Disadvantages
! Activities can be designedto reach women and
! men, boys and girls, peoplewith disabilities, and

Approach 4: Formalschool-based interventions
Advantages Disadvantages! Integrating disaster reduction into the
curriculum assures sustained learningacross generations
! Articulated subject matter leaves noroom for doubt about its importance
! Entry points into curricula are fairlyeasily identified within existing curriculaat all grade levels, and in many differentsubjects, including natural sciences,environment, geography, history, socialstudies, language and literature, healthand safety, and civics
! Education authorities and teachers mayfeel that they cannot add one more thingto an already full curriculum
! Standalone courses may be offered onlyas electives, and modules may be usedonly on a voluntary basis by interestedteachers
! Teachers may not feel capable ofteaching unfamiliar material, and mayrequire extensive support

4 Core EWS Components
Risk Knowledge
Monitoring
ResponseCapability
WarningCommunication
Guiding principleson risk knowledge
! Although risk knowledge exercises maynot lead to early warning, all earlywarning must be founded on risk know-ledge
! Accept that a community’s priorities maynot be our own
Guiding principleson monitoring
! Passive receivers of information do notsave lives
!Some communities will need to DRIVE theirEWS
! Public displays of monitoring can motivatecommunities
! When hazards evolve, so must theirmonitoring
Guiding principleson response capability
! In EWS we respond to warnings, not todisasters
! Strive to organize robust no-regretsresponse actions
! Embed response options in annually updatedcontingency plans with links to funding
! Practice makes perfect: test-drive yourresponse actions
