Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines
Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines November 2005 Republika ng Pilipinas PAMBANSANG LUPON SA UGNAYANG PANG-ESTADISTIKA (NATIONAL STATISTICAL COORDINATION BOARD) http://www.nscb.gov.ph in cooperation with The WORLD BANK Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines FOREWORD This report is part of the output of the Poverty Mapping Project implemented by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) with funding assistance from the World Bank ASEM Trust Fund. The methodology employed in the project combined the 2000 Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES), 2000 Labor Force Survey (LFS) and 2000 Census of Population and Housing (CPH) to estimate poverty incidence, poverty gap, and poverty severity for the provincial and municipal levels. We acknowledge with thanks the valuable assistance provided by the Project Consultants, Dr. Stephen Haslett and Dr. Geoffrey Jones of the Statistics Research and Consulting Centre, Massey University, New Zealand. Ms. Caridad Araujo, for the assistance in the preliminary preparations for the project; and Dr. Peter Lanjouw of the World Bank for the continued support. The Project Consultants prepared Chapters 1 to 8 of the report with Mr. Joseph M. Addawe, Rey Angelo Millendez, and Amando Patio, Jr. of the NSCB Poverty Team, assisting in the data preparation and modeling. Chapters 9 to 11 were prepared mainly by the NSCB Project Staff after conducting validation workshops in selected provinces of the country and the project’s national dissemination forum. It is hoped that the results of this project will help local communities and policy makers in the formulation of appropriate programs and improvements in the targeting schemes aimed at reducing poverty.

Launching Event - Active, Bountiful, and Clean Rivers: Wetlands Bioblitz VI. A Project: Wetlands BioBlitz at the Laguna de Bay Region Wetlands BioBlitz What is BioBlitz? • ‘Bio’ means ‘life’ and ‘Blitz’ means ‘to do something quickly and intensively’. • a collaborative race against the clock to document as many species of plants, animals and fungi as possible, within a set location, over a defined time period (usually 24 hours) • a biological inventory A bioblitz differs from a scientific inventory - • Scientific inventories are usually limited to biologists, geographers, and other scientists. • A bioblitz brings together volunteer scientists, as well as families, students, teachers, and other members of the community. Wetlands BioBlitz What is Wetlands BioBlitz? • An adoptation by the SCPW designed for wetlands • Added dimensions including geographical, climate-related and ecosystem services as indicated in the Ramsar Information Sheet or the locally adopted Wetland Information Sheet • It also uses the Ramsar Assessment of Wetland Ecosystem Services or RAWES. Wetlands BioBlitz What is Wetlands BioBlitz? General objective: To characterize and assess priority rivers employing citizen-science and increase the awareness and capacity of local communities to take action for their wise use. Specific objectives: • To identify the flora, fauna and fungi found in selected rivers • To learn about river ecosystems, the benefits derived from them, and initiatives to manage and conserve them.

THE CHALLENGES OF THE AGRARIAN TRANSITION IN SOUTHEAST ASIA ChATSEA ChATSEA Working Papers Working Paper no. 13, November 2010 Aquaculture for Rural Development: An Asymmetrical Initiative by Evangeline O. Katigbak ISSN 1919‐0581 ISSN 1919‐0581 © November 2010 Published by the Canada Research Chair in Asian Studies – Université de Montréal 3744 Jean‐Brillant, office 420, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3T 1P1 ChATSEA The Challenges of the Agrarian Transition in Southeast Asia Project (ChATSEA) is spon‐ sored under the Major Collaborative Research Initiatives of the Social Sciences and Hu‐ manities Research Council of Canada. With its primary focus on Southeast Asia Region, the Project seeks innovative understandings of the agrarian transition understood as the multiple, uneven, and reversible pathways and processes through which agrarian rela‐ tions are transformed. Key processes being studied include agricultural intensification and expansion; commodification; peri/urbanization, industrialization, human mobilities, intensification of regulation; ecological change; agrarian social movements; and the re‐ making of agrarian wealth and poverty. The Project involves an interdisciplinary team from Canada, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Australia. It is directed by Professor Rodolphe De Koninck, Canada Research Chair in Asian Studies, Université de Montreal, Canada. It runs from 2005 to 2011. For more information: http://www.caac.umontreal.ca/en/chatsea_intro.html ChATSEA Working Papers The ChATSEA Working Paper Series is intended to present empirical findings from origi‐ nal research concerning the agrarian transition, with an emphasis on contemporary con‐ text. The Series includes work done by faculty and graduate students sponsored by or af‐ filiated with ChATSEA, and by other scholars who are not affiliated but whose research concerns similar themes.

Pattern of Investment Allocation to Chemical Inputs and Technical Efficiency: a Stochastic Frontier Analysis of Farm Households in Laguna, Philippines
Pattern of investment allocation to chemical inputs and technical efficiency: A stochastic frontier analysis of farm households in Laguna, Philippines Orlee Velarde and Valerien Pede International Rice Research Institute Laguna, Philippines 4030 Selected paper prepared for presentation at the 57th AARES Annual Conference, Sydney, New South Wales, 5th-8th February, 2013 Pattern of investment allocation to chemical inputs and technical efficiency: A stochastic frontier analysis of farm households in Laguna, Philippines † Orlee Velarde †and Valerien Pede International Rice Research Institute Abstract This study focuses on the pattern between investment in chemical inputs such as fertilizer, pesticides and herbicides and technical efficiency of farm households in Laguna, Philippines. Using a one‐stage maximum likelihood estimation procedure, the stochastic production frontier model was estimated simultaneously with the determinants of efficiency. Results show that farmers with a low technical efficiency score have a high investment share in chemical inputs. Farmers who invested more in chemical inputs relative to other variable inputs attained the same or even lower output and were less efficient than those farmers who invested less. The result shows that farmers who invested wisely in chemical inputs can encourage farmers to apply chemical inputs more optimally.

Anthropology and GIS: Temporal and Spatial Distribution of the Philippine Negrito Groups Sabino G
Human Biology Volume 85 Issue 1 Special Issue on Revisiting the "Negrito" Article 10 Hypothesis 2013 Anthropology and GIS: Temporal and Spatial Distribution of the Philippine Negrito Groups Sabino G. Padilla Jr Department of Behavioral Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines, Manila Follow this and additional works at: http://digitalcommons.wayne.edu/humbiol Part of the Biological and Physical Anthropology Commons Recommended Citation Padilla, Sabino G. Jr (2013) "Anthropology and GIS: Temporal and Spatial Distribution of the Philippine Negrito Groups," Human Biology: Vol. 85: Iss. 1, Article 10. Available at: http://digitalcommons.wayne.edu/humbiol/vol85/iss1/10 Anthropology and GIS: Temporal and Spatial Distribution of the Philippine Negrito Groups Abstract The hiP lippine "negrito" groups comprise a diverse group of populations speaking over 30 different languages, who are spread all over the archipelago, mostly in marginal areas of Luzon Island in the north, the central Visayas islands, and Mindanao in the south. They exhibit physical characteristics that are different from more than 100 Philippine ethnolinguistic groups that are categorized as non-negritos. Given their numbers, it is not surprising that Philippine negritos make up a major category in a number of general ethnographic maps produced since the nineteenth century. Reports from various ethnological surveys during this period, however, have further enriched our understanding regarding the extent and distribution of negrito populations. Using the data contained in these reports, it is possible to plot and create a map showing the historical locations and distribution of negrito groups. Using geographic information systems (GIS), the location and distribution of negrito groups at any given time can be overlaid on historical or current maps.
