  • S5-28 5.3 NEEDS ANALYSIS in Order to Comprehensively Sketch The
    The Study for Socio-Economic Reconstruction and Development of Conflict-Affected Areas in Mindanao in the Republic of the Philippines SUPPLEMENTARY CHAPTER 5.3 NEEDS ANALYSIS In order to comprehensively sketch the structure and depth of development needs in CAAM, various needs identified through the surveys were ranked and categorized. In doing so, the concept of a three-layer structure is introduced. First, the needs expressed by people were classified into the layer of “development needs,” as show in the right column of Table 5.3-1. Then, the “development needs” were grouped based on their similarity and proximity, and raised into the layer of “sectors.” Finally, these sectors were further combined to form the highest layer of “categories.” As a result, various development needs were then converged into the four broad need categories of: Basic Social Services, Public Facilities, Economic Infrastructure, and Livelihood. This process of categorization and structure construction were also repeated in the analysis of the IBNA.

  • From Ideas to Action: a Review of Implementing HELP Principles in River Basins with Limited Resources and Capacity
    From ideas to action: A review of implementing HELP principles in river basins with limited resources and capacity# Declan Hearne1* , Ruth Gamboa2 and Verna Marie Monsanto2 1 HELP Davao, 248 Arayat St., Central Park Phase I, Bangkal, Davao City, Philippines 2 The University of Philippines, Davao, Mindanao, Philippines Abstract Davao City is overlapped by 8 watersheds all flowing into the Davao Gulf. These watersheds exemplify a range of cultural, environmental and economic stresses from the continual conversion of natural habitat for agricultural, urban, and industrial uses. These changes and their consequent pressures have not gone unnoticed and have surfaced through various channels into the political and public arenas. However, despite the awareness and actions from various sectoral initiatives, there is continual deterioration of trends across the ecosystems. Hydrology for Environment, Life and Policy (HELP) is a global initiative which encourages policy makers, water man- agers, scientists, and end-users to work together within a field-oriented context to closely integrate science into government policies and management strategies. Through Davao City’s participation in the HELP Network, the management of water- sheds and water has improved not through the acquisition of additional external funds but by the increase in opportunity for dialogue between ‘water-related’ communities, which resulted to enhanced stakeholder understanding of issues and increased technical capacity of all involved. This paper demonstrates how the HELP principles can be applied in basins with limited resources and how these can posi- tively influence the attitudes and behaviour of stakeholders. It highlights how HELP can act as a catalyst to motivate learning, engage competing sectors, and build collaboration to create science-backed frameworks for good water governance.

  • Chapter 5 Improved Infrastructure and Logistics Support
    Chapter 5 Improved Infrastructure and Logistics Support I. REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES Davao Region still needs to improve its infrastructure facilities and services. While the Davao International Airport has been recently completed, road infrastructure, seaport, and telecommunication facilities need to be upgraded. Flood control and similar structures are needed in flood prone areas while power and water supply facilities are still lacking in the region’s remote and underserved areas. While the region is pushing for increased production of staple crops, irrigation support facilities in major agricultural production areas are still inadequate. Off-site infrastructure in designated tourism and agri-industrial areas are likewise needed to encourage investment and spur economic activities. Accessibility and Mobility through Transport There is a need for the construction of new roads and improvement of the existing road network to provide better access and linkage within and outside the Region as an alternate to existing arterial and local roads. The lack of good roads in the interior parts of the municipalities and provinces connecting to major arterial roads constrains the growth of agriculture and industry in the Region; it also limits the operations of transport services due to high maintenance cost and longer turnaround time. Traffic congestion is likewise becoming a problem in highly urbanized and urbanizing areas like Davao City and Tagum City. While the Region is physically connected with the adjoining regions in Mindanao, poor road condition in some major highways also hampers inter-regional economic activities. The expansion of agricultural activities in the resettlement and key production areas necessitates the opening and construction of alternative routes and farm-to-market roads.
