NADESCOM
• Unified Command tasked to perform Development Support Operations.
We aim to establish an environment conducive to DEVELOPMENT to
achieve LASTING PEACE
PREVIOUS AFP RESPONSE
“An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth”
Traditional military approach
Body counts
Combat Scores
Number of recovered firearms
Number of cleared villages
NADESCOM
• Unified Command tasked to perform Development Support Operations.
• Addresses the roots of conflicts by providing engineering, medical, educational, livelihood and other community intervention programs.
Lack of Education
Inadequate Health Services
Weak Community Security
Addressing the root causes
PovertyPoor Governance
Inefficient Agrarian Reform
Lack of Infrastructure development
NADESCOM
• Unified Command tasked to perform Development Support Operations.
• Addresses the roots of conflicts by providing engineering, medical, educational, livelihood and other community intervention programs.
• Providing humanitarian assistance to support the other unified commands during disasters.
HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE
PARTNERSHIP WITH MEC
• Technology insertion to bilateral exercises initially focused on application of technology in war-fighting.
• Priority shift to HA/DR as test bed.• Application to community intervention
programs.

DISASTER RESPONSE
“HUMANITARIAN RELIEF IS INCREASINGLY A CORE TASK FOR ALL DEFENCE FORCES,” AND THAT IT SHOULD BE THE MAIN PART OF “MILITARY BUSINESS, NOT SIMPLY A SECONDARY TASK.”
~ New Zealand Defence Minister Wayne Mapp
PHILIPPINE SITUATION• Disasters happen more frequently, more
severely, and including areas not previously prone to disasters.
• Local civilian government unprepared and overwhelmed.
• AFP is called to be the first option to respond.

PACOM-AFP PARTNERSHIP ON HA/DR
• Develop HA/DR as a core military function of the AFP.
• Leverage SPP with Hawaii for USAR.• Utilize technology experimentation with MEC
as enabler.
WATER PURIFICATION SYTEMBataraza, Palawan - Cholera outbreak
WATER PURIFICATION SYTEM
Hagonoy, Bulacan - Typhoon and severe flooding
WATER PURIFICATION SYTEMCDO and Iligan Cities - Flashfloods
WATER PURIFICATION SYTEMNegros Island - Earthquake
PARTNERSHIP WITH HING
• Focused on Urban Search and Rescue.• Synchronized with MEC direction.• MEC provides technology in several areas.• Training sessions have been conducted.• Demonstration of capabilities would be shown
in BK12.
