  • Stakeholders' Participation
    Contents 1. Introduction 2. Principles of Stakeholder Participation 3. Stakeholders in the MRB Management and Development 4. Proceedings on the First Multi-Sectoral Consultation and Workshop 5. Proceedings on the Second Multi-Sectoral Consultation and Workshop 1 INTRODUCTION Stakeholder participation shall be a vital foundation of the management and development of the Marikina River Basin, in consonance with the Philippine Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan’s encouragement of stakeholders’ participation. The rationale behind this is to (a) make service providers more responsive and accountable to beneficiaries; (b) align the provision of services with users’ needs and ability to pay, thereby improving cost recovery and sustainability; and (c) tailor arrangements for water service management to local practices. Involving stakeholders in the management and development of MRB allows for the joint identification of needs, innovative ways to meet these needs and ensures sustainability, in the long run. Further, it creates ownership of the decisions regarding Marikina River among the stakeholders, that will eventually ensure stable benefits, access to information and opportunities for the local communities, primarily but other key stakeholders both horizontally and vertically. In particular, the objectives of stakeholder participation are: Improvement of decision-making as the focus is on the views, perspectives and needs of the involved parties; Encouragement of public input and feedback mechanisms as proof that

  • 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.

  • Dire Rights Situation As Martial Law Continues in Southern Philippines
    International fact-finding mission: Dire rights situation as Martial Law continues in southern Philippines 26 February 2018 (Quezon City, Philippines) – Under continuing Martial Law in the Mindanao island, in southern Philippines, farmers and indigenous peoples have experienced heightened cases of false charges, harassment, and even torture and killings. This is according to personal accounts of farmers, indigenous peoples and delegates of a recent International Solidarity Mission (ISM) who gathered at a forum today. Displacement, torture, killings Janry Mensis, a farmer from Compostela Valley in the Davao region, recounted how he and a minor “Jerry” was beaten, tortured and barely escaped murder by soldiers under the 71st Infantry “Kaibigan” Battalion (IB) of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP). The report of the fact-finding mission also found a grim situation in Compostela Valley: “Several families from Talaingod and other communities in Compostela Valley are evacuating because of hamletting and threats.” “There are around 60 families of Lumads who are now in the Sanctuary area, and still counting. This is due to the massive militarization happening in their ancestral lands prohibiting them to go to their farms,” the report of the ISM added. The report also described how the AFP, with foreign and local big business, “have instigated a brutal war against indigenous people’s communities in the SocSKSargends region, which resulted in the massacre of eight Lumad leaders in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato.” Adina Ambag, sister of one of the victims of the December 2017 Lake Sebu massacre,i decried the inaction of the local government and the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) during last Monday’s forum.

Sespeñe†・Marla Maniquiz-Redillas・김이형・추연욱 Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Kongju National University Cheonan City, Korea (Received : 22 June 2016, Revised: 02 August 2016, Accepted: 02 August 2016) Abstract The Philippines is a naturally water-rich archipelago capable of sustaining its ecological goods and providing services and needs of its people. Several waterbodies have been declared as natural wetlands in the country supporting the needs of community like water and food. In this study, 65 natural wetlands were considered including six sites that were identified as ‘Wetlands of International Importance’ such as Naujan Lake National Park, Agusan Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary, Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, Las Piñas-Parañaque Critical Habitat and Ecotourism Area and Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park. There are 22 wetland types presented in this research categorizing the Philippine wetlands. Philippine wetlands are now facing tremendous challenges such as land use conversion, abuse of resources, pollution coming from domestic, industrial and agricultural activities, and climate change. This paper provides an overview of Philippine wetlands in terms of their characteristics and components, impacts in the ecosystem, and the challenges they are dealing with.

  • Requirements for Governance in a Poverty-Reduction Project
    CASE 2 REQUIREMENTS FOR GOVERNANCE IN A POVERTY-REDUCTION PROJECT LOCALIZING THE CIDSS PROGRAM IN BALETE, AKLAN Philip Tuaño 1. INTRODUCTION Many development practitioners hold that strong involvement of the community and of local governance institutions increases the effectiveness of poverty-alleviation projects. Community involvement is important because the community is usually better at identifying the main problems of its poor and pinpointing solutions. However, it is not as easy to recognize those aspects of local governance that result in better anti-poverty programs. In some cases, local governments might even hinder efforts to improve the living conditions of the poor, especially when corrupt or misguided local officials capture community institutions and use them for their profit. This case study discusses the experience of the municipality of Balete, Aklan Province, in running the Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services (CIDSS) program of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). CIDSS is part of the so-called 'convergence strategy' for poverty alleviation.1 It belongs to a basket of projects that include Agrarian Reform Communities, certificate of ancestral domain communities, and other communities of the basic sectors such as farmers and fisherfolk. Aklan considers itself the first local government unit in the country to localize CIDSS implementation mainly through local funding. This study uses both primary and secondary data. The case study writer interviewed key informants from among local government officials, including the provincial governor, the provincial planning and development officer, the provincial social welfare and development officer, the municipal mayor, the municipal social worker, the municipal planning and development officer and the CIDSS worker.
