    W-27-93 -WORKSHOP IN-pGLiTiC'V" THEORY AND POLICY AM 1'YG'--;" 513 NORTH Pf rV< INDIANA UNIVERSITY BlOOMiNGTON, IMDtAMA 47469-3186 '• THE NEARSHORE FISHERIES IN CENTRAL VISAYAS, PHILIPPINES: AN IMPACT EVALUATION REPORT OF CVRP-I1 by Marian 5. de/os Angeles and Ramyleo Pelayo2 Introduction The Philippine municipal small-scale fisheries provides livelihood for much of the archipelago's coastal population and is a significant supplier of the country's protein requirements. To increase fish production and improve fisherfolk's income, the government implemented a nationwide credit assistance program in the seventies. Livelihood gains appear to have been short-lived as the credit program which was tied to improved capital inputs increased entry into the fisheries. Thus, the twin problems of poverty and dwindling fishery resources continue to feed each other, and experts agree that the potential yield from the nearshore fisheries may already have been reached or even exceeded. The Central Visayas Regional Project - Phase I (CVRP-I) is the country's first attempt at implementing region-wide community-based management schemes for managing coastal resources, residual forests and upland agriculture areas. The project piloted resource conservation strategies at selected sites in the four islands of Central Visayas. These sites were characterized by low incomes, environmental stress and manageable micro watershed areas. CVRP-I was implemented during 1984-1991 through a loan from the World Bank. A Central Visayas Regional Project Office (CVRPO) administered the project activities and provided liason services among the communities, regional line agencies and the national government. This paper summarizes an impact evaluation study conducted on the nearshore fisheries component of CVRP-I in 1992 (delos Angeles and Pelayo 1992).

  • Contribution of Infrastructure to Economic Growth and Poverty Reduction
    Contribution of Infrastructure to Economic Growth and Poverty Reduction Japan Bank for International Cooperation Republic of the Philippines Comprehensive Impact Study for Metro Cebu Development Final Report March 2004 Global Group 21 Japan, Incorporated Introduction This report was prepared by Global Group 21 Japan, Inc. to investigate the Comprehensive Impact Study for the Metro Cebu Development Project on commission from the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (hereinafter referred to as “JBIC”) in the year 2004. The subject of this study, “Metro Cebu”, is the second largest city in the Philippines to which JBIC had provided assistance surpassing well beyond 100 billion yen in total. In the light of its accountability to the Japanese public and the importance of feeding back lessons for its future projects, JBIC conducts evaluation of its projects every year. At the same time, JBIC recognizes the importance of evaluation not only from an individual but also from a comprehensive viewpoint. Therefore, JBIC initiated this comprehensive impact study for a number of different yen-loan projects in Metro Cebu since the 1970s. In this study, the development planning process for Metro Cebu has been divided into three development cycles for purposes of analyses and organization, namely: (1) the first cycle (1978-1986) which covered the period of the physical development planning of regional growth centers; (2) the second cycle (1987-2003) during which regional urban development for sustainable growth was promoted; and (3) the third cycle (2004 and beyond) which envisions the dispersion of growth away from Metro Cebu. This study evaluated the impact of a number of different yen-loan projects in the Metro Cebu area using the “Urban Development Model” concept.
