**BPSU NSTP VISION** The BPSU-NSTP envisions to build-up valuable and effective members of NSRC who may serve as agent in attaining quality of life, sustain peace, unity, cooperation and growth of the target communities. **BPSU NSTP MISSION** The BPSU-NSTP is a dynamic service-oriented sector composed of qualified implementers, provides capability enhancement for civic welfare geared toward encouraging youth in improving their skills, knowledge and attitudes on various endeavor that will develop their interest in community service and be more responsive in attaining peace and other development. **BPSU NSTP GOALS** Develop civic consciousness among the youth particularly those that enhance their total well-being as agent in the pursuit of national development. **SPECIFIC GOALS:** **NSTP COVERAGE** All incoming freshmen students, male and female, of any baccalaureate degree course or at least two (2)-year technical vocational courses in public and private educational institutions shall be required to complete one (1) of the NSTP components as requisite for graduation. **COMPONENT OF NSTP** The NSTP components offered in BPSU are Reserve Officer's Training Corps (ROTC), Literacy Training Service (LTS), and Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS). **LESSON 1: DRUGS** Substance, other than food or water, that is taken or administered for the purpose of altering, sustaining or controlling the recipient's physical, mental or emotional state. **DRUG ABUSE** Using [without the benefit of prescription] to alter the mood and behavior. - Condition wherein [a person cannot function without drugs in his system] and that with the drugs, he develops withdrawal signs like [restlessness, pain, convulsion, etc] - [Reliance on drugs to achieve or maintain a particular psychological state], a certain mood, a kind of thinking. **LONG TERM EFFECTS** Prolonged use and even a single exposure especially if administered intravenously (entering by way of vein) can lead to manifestations of a [full blown psychosis (delusions/hallucinations) which is similar to schizophrenia]. **DRUGS OF ABUSE:** **REASONS OF USING DRUGS:** **CLASSIFICATIONS OF DRUG ABUSERS:** **ILL EFFECTS OF DRUGS:** **UNLAWFUL ACTS:** LESSON 2: DRRM AWARENESS **WHAT IS DRRM?** DISASTER RISK REDUCTION MANAGEMENT -- [systematic process] of using administrative directives, organizations and operational skills and capacities to implement strategies, policies and improved coping capacities [in order to lessen adverse impacts of hazards and the possibility of disaster.] **DRRM KEY COMPONENTS:** **WHAT IS DISASTER?** [A serious disruption] of the functioning of a community or a society at any scale due to hazardous events interacting with conditions and exposure, vulnerability and capacity, leading to one or more of the following:[human, material, economic and environmental losses and impacts.] **DISASTER RISK** According to the terminology of UNDRR. Disaster risk is defined as the [potential loss of life], injury, or destroyed or damaged assets which could occur to a system, society or a community in a specific period of time. **HAZARD** [Defined as a process phenomenon or human activity that may cause loss of life,] injury or other health impacts, property damage, social and economic disruption or environmental degradation. **EXPOSURE** The situation of people, infrastructure, housing, production capacities and other tangible human [assets located in hazard prone areas.] **Types of Disasters** Primarily disasters are triggered by NATURAL HAZARDS or HUMAN-INDUCED or result from a combination of both. In particular, human-induced factors can greatly aggravate the adverse impacts of a natural disaster. Even at a larger scale, globally, the UN **Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)** has shown that human-induced climate change has significantly increased both the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. While heavy rains, cyclones, or earthquakes are all natural, the impacts may, and are usually, worsened by many factors related to human activity: The extensive industrialization and urbanization increases both the probability of human-induced disasters, and the extent of potential damage to life and property from both natural and human-induced disasters **Natural Disasters** EARTHQUAKES TYPHOONS FLOODS LANDSLIDES VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS TSUNAMIS **Human-induced Disasters** Fires Industrial accidents Chemical spills Pandemics/ Epidemics **WHAT IS EMERGENCY?** It's a [situation that requires a speedy response to save lives] and to protect property. **WHAT'S A DISASTER?** Much more serious events and threaten or cause widespread losses and damage. DISASTER A disaster, on the other hand, is characterized by impacts that overwhelm the capacities of local responders and place demands on locally. Hence, an event is declared as a \"disaster\" when [there is a need for external assistance to cope with its impacts.] EMERGENCY An emergency is an [event that can be responded to using the resources available] at hand, implying that there is no need to request external assistance. **THE DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT CYCLE:** 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Disaster Prevention - the [outright avoidance of adverse impacts of hazards and related disasters.] It expresses the concept and intention to completely avoid potential adverse impacts through action taken in advance such as construction of dams or embankments that eliminate flood risks, land-use regulations that do not permit any settlement in high-risk zones, and seismic engineering designs that ensure the survival and function of a critical building in any likely earthquake. Disaster Mitigation - the [lessening or limitation of the adverse impacts of hazards] and related disasters. Mitigation measures encompass engineering techniques and hazard-resistant construction as well as improved environmental policies and public awareness. Disaster Preparedness - the [knowledge and capacities developed] by governments, professional response and recovery organizations, communities and individuals to effectively anticipate, respond to and recover from, the Impacts of likely, imminent or current hazard events or conditions. Preparedness action is carried out within the context of disaster risk reduction and management and aims to build the capacities needed to efficiently manage all types of emergencies and achieve orderly transitions from response to sustained recovery. Preparedness is based on a sound analysis of disaster risk and good linkages with early warning systems, and includes such activities as contingency planning, stockpiling of equipment and supplies, the development of arrangements for coordination, evacuation and public information, and associated training and field exercises. These must be supported by formal institutional, legal and budgetary capacities. Disaster Response - the [provision of emergency services and public assistance during or immediately after a disaster in order to save lives], reduce health impacts, ensure public safety and meet the basic subsistence needs of the people affected. Disaster response is predominantly focused on immediate and short-term needs and is sometimes called [\"disaster relief\"] Rehabilitation [measures that ensure the ability of affected communities/areas to restore their normal level of functioning by rebuilding livelihood] and damaged infrastructures and increasing the communities\' organizational capacity. Disaster Recovery refers to the [process of restoring systems, services, and infrastructure to full functionality after a disaste]r, such as a natural calamity (e.g., earthquake, flood, typhoon) or a human-induced (e.g., cyberattacks, industrial accidents). It involves strategies and actions to mitigate the long-term impact of the disaster and ensure that affected communities, organizations, or systems can resume normal operations. ​​​​​ **University DRRM Initiatives and Protocols** Emergency Preparedness Plan Campus evacuation routes and safe zones Designated shelter areas Communication during emergencies University DRRM Team Roles and responsibilities of the DRRM team Coordination with local and national agencies Emergency Hotlines and Resources Contact information for university DRRM offices, local emergency services **Personal Preparedness for Students** Creating a Personal Emergency Plan Family and home preparedness Emergency contacts and communication strategies Assembling a Personal Emergency Kit List of essential items (food, water, medical supplies, tools, etc.) Participating in Drills and Trainings Importance of university-organized drills (fire, earthquake, etc.) Basic first aid and CPR training for students **The Role of Students in DRRM Advocacy** Becoming a DRRM Advocate Students can promote DRRM by educating their peers and communities about disaster risk, prevention strategies and safety protocols through social media, events and school programs Volunteerism in Disaster Preparedness Students can also volunteer in local DRRM initiatives, participate and engage in preparedness trainings and helping their communities be better prepared for emergencies. LESSON 3: ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION the [practice of protecting the natural environment] by individuals, groups and governments. It involves actions like: Reducing pollution, conserving resources, protecting wildlife, recycling and reusing. The main objective of environmental protection is to ensure a healthy and sustainable environment for current and future generations. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 global goals [established by the United Nations to address various challenges facing the world]. They aim to create a better and more sustainable future for everyone by 2030.These goals encourage countries to work together to solve global issues and ensure a healthy, prosperous, and sustainable world for future generations. **GLOBAL WARMING & CLIMATE CHANGE** Global warming specifically [refers to the long-term warming] of Earth\'s average temperature. This warming is [primarily caused by the increase in greenhouse gasses, such as carbon dioxide and methane, in the atmosphere]. These gasses trap heat from the sun, leading to a rise in temperatures. Climate change is a broader term that encompasses the [long-term shifts in Earth\'s weather patterns]. These changes can include: **ROLE OF THE YOUTH** **FOREST PROTECTION, CONSERVATION & DEVELOPMENT** PROTECTION [Measures taken to safeguard forests from threats] such as deforestation, illegal logging, wildfires, and pests. CONSERVATION [The sustainable management and use of forest resources to maintain their biodiversity], productivity, and ecological processes. DEVELOPMENT [Efforts to enhance the economic, social, and ecological value of forests]. **IMPORTANCE OF FOREST PROTECTION** Forests are essential for the environment and human well-being. They produce oxygen, absorb carbon dioxide, support biodiversity,regulate the water cycle, prevent soil erosion, and help control local and global climates. Forests also provide economic resources, cultural and recreational value, and act as natural barriers against disasters.Protecting and sustainably managing forests is crucial for maintaining these benefits for future generations. **ROLES OF THE YOUTH** **WATER SANITATION & CONSERVATION** **IMPORTANCE OF SANITATION & CONSERVATION** Water is [essential for life, but it\'s a limited resource]. Ensuring access to clean, safe water and conserving this precious resource is crucial for human health, economic development, and environmental sustainability. **WATER SANITATION** **WATER CONSERVATION** ​ **ROLE OF THE YOUTH** LESSON 4: VULNERABLE SECTORS IN RADICALISM AND VIOLENT EXTREMISM - - - - - - DAESH (Islamic Faith) aims to [abolish all normal beliefs, norms, and institutions.] - - Mindanao (supported by DAESH) - Marawi in 2017 - Established territory in the [Southern Philippines] LOCAL (December 1968) 1. 2. 3.

It is the statement of individual liberties which citizens, residents and sojourners in the country enjoy abuses in against the exercise of government power. In short, it is the people's shield against government abuse. **WHAT IS PREAMBLE?** The term preamble is derived from the Latin word "[preambulare]" which means ["to walk before"]. It is a prologue of the Constitution. Clustered below are the good citizenship values that are reflected in the Preamble of the [1987 Philippine Constitution]: The Basic Values of the Filipinos PREAMBLE We, the sovereign Filipino people Imploring the aid of Almighty God, In order to build a just and humane society and establish a Government that shall embody our ideals and aspirations, promote the common good, conserve and develop our patrimony, and secure to ourselves our posterity the blessings of independence and democracy under the rule of law and a regime of truth,justice, freedom, love, equality, and peace,do ordain and promulgate this Constitution. **THE GOOD CITIZENSHIP CLUSTER** Values as herein written supports **Article IX Constitutional Commissions**\... THE 1987 CONSTITUTION\... The State values the dignity of every human person and guarantees full respect\... The State recognizes the vital role of youth in nation building and shall promote\... Philippine citizenship may be lost or reacquired in the manner provided by law. **GOOD CITIZENSHIP VALUES** THE MAKA-DIYOS CLUSTER THE MAKA-TAO CLUSTER THE MAKA-BAYAN CLUSTER THE MAKAKALIKASAN CLUSTER **NATIONALISM** The term "nationalism" is generally used to describe two things, first is the attitude that the members of a nation have which includes the concept of national identity such as common origin, ethnicity and cultural ties. The other one is the actions that the members of the nation take when seeking to achieve (or sustain) self-determination. These involve having full statehood with complete authority over domestic and international affairs. **PATRIOTISM** The term "patriotism" is love of and/or devotion to one's country. However, patriotism has had different meanings over time, and its meaning is highly dependent upon context, geography and philosophy. LESSON 6: HISTORY OF ROTC PROGRAM In 1912, the Reserve Officers\' Training Corps (ROTC) was established. The first ROTC unit was born with the establishment of the Department of Military Science and Tactics at the University of the Philippines in July 3, 1922\. And it only became mandatory after 13 years when President Manuel Quezon signed Commonwealth Act 1, also known as the National Defense Act of 1935. It was disbanded and demobilized after World War II since the country could not afford to keep a large military force without depleting its resources. But later restored in 1967 as mandatory program by President Ferdinand Marcos, who was a product of ROTC class 1937 with Executive Order 59. Since the National Service Training Program Act of 2001 was passed, said program was no longer a mandatory but an optional program for the college students. **Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC)** a program institutionalized under **Section 38 and 39 of RA 7077** designed to [provide military training to tertiary level students] in order to motivate, train, organize and mobilize them for national defense preparedness.
