本研究提供了大规模和小规模的洪水在教育部门的大马尼拉，菲律宾的影响，以及他们如何可能在全球学习危机的贡献。它强调了小规模洪水的影响，这些洪水往往没有得到承认，因为它们不符合全球最广泛共识的灾害定义。本研究的方法框架包括三种不同的方法，包括二手数据收集，焦点小组讨论，并从选定的公立学校的学生，教师，学校管理人员和工作人员参加研讨会。研究结果表明，小规模洪水对学校社区（学生，教师和工作人员），特别是对最边缘化的学生的影响是相当大的，其累积影响可能是可比的或更重要的比大规模洪水。然而，这些问题的记录仍然很差，该国的任何减少灾害风险政策都没有涉及这些问题。此外，学校社区的当地能力也被忽视，而这种能力在小规模洪灾时更为明显。研究报告还指出，旨在减少灾害风险从而解决教育部门全球学习危机的有意义的政策和行动应充分考虑小规模灾害和洪水。
This study provides insights on the impacts of both large and small-scale floods in the education sector of Metro Manila, Philippines and how they may contribute in Global Leaning Crisis. It highlights the impacts of small-scale floods which are often unrecognised as they fail to meet the very definition of disaster with the widest global consensus. The methodological framework for this study consists of three different methods including secondary data collection, focus group discussion, and workshop involving students, teachers, school administrators and staffs from selected public schools. Findings suggest that impacts of small-scale floods to school communities (students, teacher and staffs) particularly to the most marginalised students were considerable and their cumulative impacts may be comparable or more important than large-scale floods. Yet, they remain poorly documented and are not addressed by any disaster risk reduction policies in the country. In addition, local capacities of school communities which are more apparent in times of small-scale floods are also neglected. The study then argues that meaningful policies and actions which aim to reduce disaster risk and thus address global learning crisis in the education sector should fully consider small-scale disasters and floods.
