EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2020 (FY20), the Marawi Response Project (MRP) ramped up training and grants, leading to its three most productive months to date. A total of 60 grant requests were reviewed, two approved, and 95 delivered this quarter. MRP managed to significantly improve its efficiency through a number of initiatives such as consolidating pre-entry grant forms, grouping procurements and establishing long-term agreements for procurement. Delivered grants included grocery, Ready-to-Wear (RTW), and bakery commodities, as well as community learning facilities and small infrastructure projects. Approximately 257 beneficiaries are directly benefiting from these grants, with an estimated 1,336 indirect beneficiaries. MRP and its partners, Maranao People Development Center, Inc. (MARADECA) and Ecosystems Work for Essential Benefits (ECOWEB), also continued to develop new grant ideas throughout the quarter, with a total of 111 new concept notes submitted. At the end of the quarter, the Grants Team successfully piloted a streamlined concept development process with five grant requests, which reduces the documentation required from the partners and simplifies the templates. The grants were complemented by MRP’s training component, with a total of 23 trainings held this quarter. Training topics included planning and financial management, community-based enterprise development, and vocational skills, such as garment-making, food preparation, baking, and small engine repair and vulcanizing. MRP also worked to connect beneficiaries with opportunities for funding and the private sector. In November, members of Community Solidarity Groups (CSGs) participated in the first ever Marawi Youth Entrepreneurs’ Tech and Social Enterprise Ideation Challenge. On December 16-17, 83 representatives from 24 CSGs were trained on project development and concept note preparation as part of the continuing capacity building for communities. On December 16, MRP presented key findings from its value chain studies conducted on handwoven goods, aquaculture, and horticultural crops to representatives from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and other USAID-funded projects. Preliminary discussions with the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI) and other national business organizations have generated agreements toward increased private-sector engagement in MRP’s implementation of value chain interventions. MRP continued its market assistance to local internally displaced persons (IDPs) businesses and producers through trade fair participation and direct market linkages with institutional buyers. The participation of MRP-supported IDP exhibitors at the 70th Manila FAME international trade show on October 17-19 generated sales amounting to US$26,000. MRP completed its baseline assessment in December 2019, which consisted of 354 surveys, 11 in-depth interviews, and 8 focus group discussions (FGDs). MRP is now finalizing the baseline assessment report, which will be submitted to USAID on January 31, 2020. The Monitoring, Evaluation, Research, and Learning (MERL) team also facilitated an internal Pause and Reflect Session (P&R) with MARADECA and ECOWEB on October 23, 2019. Significant topics included the importance of tracking continued engagement with CSGs, the lack of activities focusing specifically on youth, challenges related to the delivery of goods, and how to tackle environmental compliance issues, particularly around small infrastructure grants. On the operations front, the Chief of Party (COP) took leave from his position on November 15, 2019 and Plan International USA Senior Director stepped in as Acting COP on November 18, 2019. MRP hired one additional MERL Specialist who began in December 2019. Revisions to the Grants Manual will be submitted in early January, which, when approved, will increase the maximum grant ceiling for certain types of social cohesion grants. Further, the grants cycle changes proposed in the Grants Manual revisions 5 aim to shorten the time between
