What does management do?
The Disaster Risk Management Office is the organic unit responsible for disaster risk management and civil defense activities in the district, through prevention, contingency, emergency, urgency and rehabilitation plans in its jurisdiction. Depends on the Urban Development Management.
Disaster Risk Management Components and Processes
Components:
- Prospective Management: Actions that are planned and carried out in order to avoid future risk.
- Corrective Management: The set of actions that are planned and carried out with the purpose of correcting the existing risk.
- Reactive Management: Actions and measures aimed at facing disasters, either due to imminent danger or risk materialization.
Processes
- Estimation: Actions that are planned and carried out to generate knowledge of hazards, analyze vulnerability and establish risk levels.
- Prevention: Actions that are planned and carried out to avoid the generation of new risks.
- Reduction: Actions that are planned and carried out to reduce existing vulnerabilities and risks.
- Preparedness: Planning actions for care and relief that allow an efficient and effective response in case of disaster or imminent danger situation, in order to ensure an optimal response

District Emergency Operations Center
- The District Emergency Operations Center is the physical space used by the Municipality of La Molina, in which information on imminent dangers or emergencies occurring in the district is gathered, processed, monitored and analyzed, allowing us to make technical decisions for the prevention and attention of disasters, contributing to an efficient and effective response and monitoring of the emergency or danger.
- The Mobile Emergency Operations Center is a complementary tool to the District Emergency Operations Center and can be deployed and operational within minutes of its arrival at an emergency, with VHF and HF communication systems as well as aerial inspection systems using drones (one with an optical camera and the other with a thermal camera), which are capable of transmitting images in real time to the Mobile COED screens. It is in this way that once the Mobile COED is deployed, the Incident Command System can be implemented and interconnected at the same time with the District Emergency Operations Center.
First Response Brigade
Organized, prepared and trained human team to intervene as a first response to an urgency, emergency, or risk event or, failing that, to the contingency of a major tragedy with the objective of mitigating its consequences.
Community Brigadistas
They are a group of people organized, trained and properly trained within the district of La Molina, to act in emergency or disaster situations, governed by the principle of self-help.
Through the Community Brigaders Course, we seek to provide various tools to neighbors so that they can increase their prevention skills and thus provide the necessary assistance to their families, friends or community, at the time of an event such as: earthquakes, fires, basic first aid, etc.
This initiative seeks to reduce vulnerability and increase resilience so that the principle of self-help prevails in the face of any eventuality.
