Learning kits, teaching kits, and book library kits available on standby c/o UNICEF. SECTIONS BELOW ARE FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY 1. Security and Logistics The security situation in the affected areas are generally stable with minor aftershocks. 2. Partnerships and Coordination The Philippine INGO Network (PINGON) are still in the process of deciding for a coordinated evaluation. However, independent members like World Vision, UNICEF, etc., are now doing their own evaluations/assessment in the area. ChildFund Philippines is actively coordinating with PINGON to supply in any potential gaps that can be supplied by the organization. ChildFund Japan, already advised ChildFund Philippines that they are not doing any assessment in the affected areas, since it is not their program area. EDUCO is also not operating in Mindanao; hence no plans of any assessment nor response form them. ChildFund Philippines operation sites in Mindanao are far from the epicenter of the earthquake, all sponsored and enrolled children are all accounted for and are safe. 3. Program Although no direct impact to ChildFund Philippines supported communities, ChildFund Mindanao Office Staff are in constant coordination with local government units and partners to assess damages, impact to population, and potentially respond if needed. At 11am, 13 February, 2017, ChildFund Philippines NO and MFO staff (participated by the OIC ND, DRM Technical Specialist, Security Specialist, and Mindanao Program Office Manager), conducted a meeting to discuss the need and scale of the disaster vis a vis the ChildFund emergency response criteria, and current capacity. After looking into the considerations, and presence of support present in the ground, it was decided that ChildFund will not be moving forward with an assessment and a response. However, the Mindanao program office is on constant standby in case regional and/or Mindanao-wide call for support will be asked, especially in the areas of Child Protection and Education. ChildFund Philippines NO is also in contact with national level networks, if ever a major need rises. The decision to not move forward with an assessment is based on the organization’s criteria considerations: Response Criteria In the Context of Surigao Earthquake The affected areas are adjoining to current Nearest program area is 8 hours away via land program areas and there is potential of spill travel, too far and remote for potential spillover. over to the current program areas; All enrolled children are accounted for. Populations in the current program areas have moved to the new areas as a result of the disaster or populations from other areas have moved to our program areas as a result Unlikely to happen, people will still pass of the disaster; Butuan, Tandag, etc before reaching CDO. ChildFund International has strategic intent to move into the affected areas in the Surigao city is in the list of potential expansion future; and area, but not a priority.

Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the population density over the three census years. The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of land where the population resides.

It has been reported primarily from only four main islands of the Philippine archipelago. We have studied it extensively for the past three decades. Using data from 1991 to 1998 as best representing the current status of the species on the island of Mindanao, we estimated the mean nearest-neighbour distances between breeding pairs, with remarkably little variation, to be 12.74 km (n = 13 nests plus six pairs without located nests, se = ±0.86 km, range = 8.3–17.5 km). Forest cover within circular plots based on nearest-neighbour pairs, in conjunction with estimates of remaining suitable forest habitat (approximately 14 000 km2), yield estimates of the maximum number of breeding pairs on Mindanao ranging from 82 to 233, depending on how the forest cover is factored into the estimates. The Philippine Eagle Pithecophaga jefferyi is a large insufficient or unreliable data, and inadequately forest raptor considered to be one of the three reported methods.

  • Socio-Economics, Institutional Support, and Intervention Programs Toward Sustainable Fisheries Management in Lake Mainit, Philippines
    Socio-Economics, Institutional Support, and Intervention Programs Toward Sustainable Fisheries Management in Lake Mainit, Philippines Asuncion B. De Guzman, Alita E. Openiano, Marilou M. Ologuin and Jeanette J. Samson Mindanao State University at Naawan, 9023 Naawan, Misamis Oriental E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Lake Mainit is an important natural resource shared by two provinces in northern Mindanao, Surigao del Norte and Agusan del Norte, notable for being the deepest and the fourth largest lake in the Philippines. This wetland ecosystem supports a thriving freshwater fishery and the livelihood of more than 4,000 fishers. At least 19 types of traditional and ingenious modifications of fishing gears are used. On the average Lake Mainit fishers earn an estimated monthly income of Php4,340 which falls below the poverty threshold for an average family in rural Philippines. Part of a comprehensive resource assessment project in Lake Mainit is a socio- economic profiling and appraisal of the numerous intervention programs in fisheries management and livelihood development introduced into the lakeshore communities in an attempt to improve the ecological and socio-economic situation around the lake. The results of this assessment will provide the scientific basis for formulating a comprehensive fisheries management plan for Lake Mainit that shall, in turn, be integrated into the Lake Mainit Development Alliance (LMDA) development agenda to help restore Lake Mainit fisheries to sustainable levels by addressing issues on declining water quality, regulation of fishing effort, and decreasing fisher income. Keywords: Lake Mainit, socio-economics, management issues, intervention programs, LMDA. INTRODUCTION Lake Mainit is an ecologically important resource within two provincial jurisdictions in the Caraga Region, namely, Agusan del Norte and Surigao del Norte, bordered by eight municipalities that comprise the Lake Mainit Watershed (Fig.

From 4.2 percent in December 2018, it declined by 0.5 percentage point in January 2019 at 3.7 percent (Figure 1) . It further decelerated in the succeeding months, registering 3.3 percent in February and 2.9 percent in March. This improvement was primarily due to the slow movement in the monthly increment in the price Source: PSA Caraga indices of heavily-weighted commodity groups, such as food and non-alcoholic beverages; Figure 2. Inflation Rate by Province housing, water, electricity, gas and other fuels; and transport. The importation of rice somehow averted the further increase in the market price of rice in the locality.
