EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Many local and international organizations, including UNDP, supported government authorities in responding to the 7.2 magnitude earthquake that struck , including the hardest-hit province of , in October 2013. Immediately after the earthquake, UNDP joined the multi-sectoral assessment which looked into the most urgent needs of the affected population. As the co-lead of the Early Recovery (ER) Cluster, UNDP zeroed in on the specific ER needs of the communities and formulated project interventions which could facilitate their early recovery and help establish the foundations for long-term development. With funding assistance of USD 800,000 from the Government of Japan, the project “Debris Management and Livelihood Support for areas affected by the Bohol Earthquake,” or the Bohol Early Recovery Project, was designed to benefit the ten (10) hardest hit municipalities in southwestern Bohol namely, , Antequera, Loon, , , Clarin, , , , and San Isidro. The project later expanded to include the nearby municipality of Carmen (component 1 only) upon the request of its municipal government for assistance in addressing the effects of the earthquake.

The project was implemented from 07 November 2013 to 15 July 2014. It was originally scheduled to close on 06 May 2014 but was extended at no-cost until the middle of July 2014 by the Government of Japan upon the request of UNDP for additional time for programme and financial closure activities.

Component 1 (debris management and emergency livelihood) aimed to demolish damaged infrastructure and clear the debris left behind by the earthquake through the project’s cash-for-work (CfW) programme. Under this component, the project engaged as cash-for-work participants the families of those affected by the calamity, thus providing them with much-needed emergency income. The project likewise provided assistance (e.g. excavation, clearing) in the improvement of the municipal dumpsites.

By the end of the implementation period, the project was able to demolish and clear a total of 125 structures (e.g. school buildings/classrooms, health stations, halls, public markets, municipal buildings). The project was also able to clear and clean a total of 2,059 meters of canals and roads, the collected debris reaching a total volume of 2,380.93 cubic meters. In the process, a total of 1,900 families (i.e. one CfW worker per family) earned emergency income by taking part in cash-for- work activities.

Component 2 (income recovery) aimed to restore livelihood opportunities in those communities affected by the earthquake. Following consultations with local government units (LGU), affected communities, regional line agencies and civil society, the project provided livelihood assistance

4 in carpentry, vegetable, livestock, mushroom and rice production, loomweaving and fishing, reaching a total of 6,309 persons/families.

Component 3 (disaster risk reduction and management) aimed to build the capacities of the target LGUs on DRRM as well as climate change adaptation. Ten (10) Local DRRM Plans were formulated and adopted by the LGUs through a resolution passed by their respective /Sangguniang Panlalawigan (local councils). A Technical Exchange Workshop on DRRM and CCA between the Provinces of Bohol and Albay was conducted, serving as an opportunity for Bohol LGUs to learn from the experiences, knowledge, success stories, strategies and challenges of their Albay counterparts.

Throughout the implementation phase, UNDP ensured the application of cross-cutting themes, particularly the promotion of women participation and of environmentally sound practices.

At the end of the project, UNDP was able to utilize the full amount of the funding from the Government of Japan reaching a financial delivery rate of 100 per cent.

5 INTRODUCTION

Bohol was hit by a 7.2 magnitude earthquake of tectonic origin on 15 October 2013. The calamity brought extensive damages to service and governance infrastructure and centuries-old churches. Bridges and access roads were damaged while large numbers of houses either totally or partially collapsed. Severe destruction was evident in the northern, southwestern and southern parts of Bohol province. All sectors of the economy and social services were greatly affected including environmental and tourism resources.

Two weeks after the earthquake, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) reported that the disaster affected an estimated population of 1.2 million persons in Bohol. Families rendered homeless by the earthquake were forced to stay in evacuation shelters, makeshift tents outside their houses, or with relatives.

Immediate response was executed by national government, local government units (LGU), international humanitarian organizations, local and international NGOs, and the private sector. Even several weeks following the earthquake, the massive volume of debris continued to be a major problem, posing significant health risks and impeding the immediate return to normalcy of the affected population.

Large numbers of public infrastructure were severely damaged and were in danger of collapsing. The structures needed to be immediately demolished but extensive support was needed by the LGUs and affected communities in appropriately managing the debris that would be generated by the demolition.

Clearing the damaged structures and houses would pave the way to the restoration of basic services including social services (e.g. health stations, hospitals, schools) and governance services (e.g. municipal halls, barangay halls, multi-purpose buildings).

Livelihoods of the affected population were likewise severely affected by the earthquake. Families lost their income sources and were in need of immediate assistance towards recovery.

With funding assistance from the Government of Japan in the amount of USD 800,000, UNDP implemented the project “Debris Management and Livelihood Support for areas affected by the Bohol Earthquake,” or the Bohol Early Recovery Project, to supplement government efforts in laying down the foundations for building back better in Bohol. The project was implemented in ten (10) municipalities in Bohol province namely, Maribojoc, Antequera, Loon, Calape, Tubigon, Clarin, Inabanga, Sagbayan, Catigbian and San Isidro. The project later expanded to include the nearby municipality of Carmen (component 1 only) upon the request of its municipal government for assistance in addressing the effects of the earthquake, bringing the total number of covered municipalities to 11.

The project had two components: (1) debris management and emergency livelihood for 10 hardest hit municipalities; (2) support to income recovery in priority municipalities and relocation sites; and (3) strengthening government institutions for disaster risk reduction and management. Under Component 1, the project engaged as cash-for-work participants the families of those affected by the calamity, helping restore normalcy in the devastated communities while providing families of typhoon victims with much-needed emergency income. The project likewise provided assistance (e.g. excavation, clearing) in the improvement of existing municipal dumpsites as well as in the identification of temporary dumpsites. Component 2 aimed to restore livelihood opportunities in those communities affected by the earthquake, particularly in vegetable, livestock, mushroom and rice production, loom weaving, fishing and carpentry. Component 3 aimed to build the capacities of the target LGUs on DRRM as well as climate change adaptation.

7 PROJECT OBJECTIVES AND EXPECTED OUTPUTS

OBJECTIVE EXPECTED OUTPUTS

1. Ten (10) municipalities in Bohol The main objective of the project was to hardest hit by the earthquake cleared “contribute in catalyzing the recovery of the ten of rubble and residual debris through (10) municipalities most critically affected by the cash-for-work and comprehensive October 2013 earthquake in Bohol province.” debris management initiatives, reducing threats to lives, health risks and enabling the smooth transition to recovery

2. Livelihoods restored and incomes recovered for men and women in the ten (10) hardest hit municipalities in Bohol

3. Enhanced capacities of Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Councils (LDRRMC)

8 PROJECT ACCOMPLISHMENTS

Component 1

10 priority municipalities hardest hit by the earthquake are cleared of debris from damaged houses and 1,9001 families provided with emergency livelihoods

Indicators 1. Number of municipalities with 90-100% of debris/rubble from damaged houses cleared/cleaned 2. Number of affected families provided with emergency livelihoods 3. Number of dumpsites improved to accommodate the debris and rubble brought by the earthquake

Clearing of damaged structures was the immediate requirement that needed to be addressed in order to facilitate access to affected sites and to salvage assets within the damaged structures. In partnership with the Municipal Engineering and Municipal Social Welfare and Development Offices of the project’s target municipalities, UNDP mobilized affected communities to carry out debris clearing operations.

1 Original target was 2,000 families. Due to the new DSWD requirement of 15 work days minimum per person, the number of workers covered by the project was moderately reduced to 1,900. Modification was approved by the Government of Japan on 13 February 2014.

LGU Municipal Engineering Offices validated the structures to be demolished, prepared the Program of Work (POW) and secured the demolition permit from the Commission on Audit (COA). These offices also worked with local service providers which supplied heavy equipment (e.g. backhoe, dump truck) for project activities under Component 1. Backhoes were used to demolish concrete walls and structures, while dump trucks were used for debris collection and for delivery to dumpsites. Cash-for- work operations were likewise closely coordinated with the Municipal Social Welfare Development Office, which drew up the list of workers based on DSWD criteria.

The project was able to demolish 125 public structures (e.g. school buildings/classrooms, health stations, barangay halls, public markets, municipal buildings) while 1,508 meters of canals and 551 meters of barangay roads were cleared of debris. The collected debris amounted to 2,380.93 cubic meters. Three (3) existing dumpsites in the municipalities of Tubigon, Clarin and Inabanga were improved and excavated using a backhoe and cleared by cash-for-work participants to accommodate the volume of post-typhoon debris. On the other hand, seven (7) temporary dumpsites in Maribojoc, Antequera, Loon, Calape, Inabanga, Catigbian and San Isidro were identified by LGUs with technical assistance from the project and utilized for segregation of recoverable and non-recoverable debris.

To ensure efficiency and the safety of people working, personal protective equipment (PPE) were distributed to cash-for-work participants along with the hand tools. The workers were provided with rubber boots, face masks, long-sleeved shirts, goggles and gloves. The tools included shovels, bolo, claw hammers, wheelbarrows, cold chisels, sledgehammers, barras and foot crowbars. After the cash- for-work operations, the workers returned the tools, for future use in similar debris clearing activities of the LGU, to the Municipal Engineering Offices which served as the property custodian.

Through cash-for-work operations, UNDP was able to provide immediate income to the families of 1,900 men and women who were each employed for a minimum period of 15 days as prescribed by DSWD, at P297 per day or P4,455 for the entire period. Their earnings were used mainly for food, allowance of their children returning to school, utilities (e.g. water, electricity) and other basic needs. Aside from providing emergency income, the cash-for-work debris clearing assistance was also widely appreciated by the local officials and the people as they could see that, with the debris gone, they could now start to rebuild their province. Participating in the cash-for-work program likewise boosted the morale of typhoon victims as it provided a distraction from the devastation and depression brought about by the earthquake.

The target municipalities benefitted from the project as the cash-for-work program led to cleared roads, enabling smooth day-to-day transportation, better irrigation and easier access of humanitarian workers to previously hard-to-reach communities. The infusion of cash into the municipality, through the wages paid to the workers, also contributed in reviving the local economy as the workers used their wages to purchase goods from local shops.

The restoration of livelihood opportunities/sources, which had been adversely affected by the earthquake, was one of the principal needs of the people in communities where the project operated. UNDP initiated consultations with the Food Security and Livelihood Clusters, the livelihood focal persons of the LGUs who were normally the Municipal Agriculture Officers, members of the Early Recovery Committee of the LGUs, civil society, potential beneficiary groups, and representatives of various line agencies concerned – including the Department of Agriculture-Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (DA-BFAR), Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA-Bohol), Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Training Institute (DA-ATI).

The purpose of the consultations was to map possible livelihood options that could be supported by the project. A number of proposed livelihood interventions were lined up by the LGUs taking into account the topographical alterations occasioned by the earthquake.

Based on the outcome of the consultations, the following livelihood options were selected for project support: carpentry, vegetable production, loomweaving, rice production, livestock production, fishing, and mushroom production.

Rice production, vegetable production as well as support to fishing and livestock were selected for immediate impact on livelihood needs. Provision of veterinary medicines, vaccines and vitamins was also approved because the intervention would serve to mitigate

12 livestock production depletion. The conduct of carpentry skills training, on the other hand, was recommended in order to provide the human resource needs in the province for civil works, especially during the reconstruction phase.

The cash-for-training modality was used for carpentry, vegetable production and loom weaving in order to equip the beneficiaries with these livelihood skills.

The carpentry training was participated in by 240 beneficiaries who were each given a total of PhP 4,445 by the end of the course. The trainees underwent a practicum exercise wherein they built bunkhouses for the earthquake victims and they were later absorbed by the LGUs for future employment in construction work in their respective localities.

The vegetable production training, on the other hand, was conducted for 1,320 beneficiaries who each received PhP 450 for the duration of the three-day training. These trainees were subsequently required to apply their learnings and were provided with vegetable seeds. For those beneficiaries who were in relocation sites at the time of implementation, vegetable production activities were undertaken through container gardening; those who had already returned to their homes at the time of implementation planted vegetables in their respective farms. Certified rice seeds were likewise distributed to 1,188 farming families to help them restore their means of income generation.

Loom weaving was selected as one of the livelihood options to be supported by the project as it had been considerably established in Bohol, although business operations suffered significantly from the earthquake and eventually had to stop. Prior to the catastrophe, loom weaving had furthermore been proven to have high market viability.

The training on loom weaving technology upgrade was conducted for 45 days benefitting a total of 15 trainees who each earned PhP 210 per day or a total of PhP 9,450 for the whole training period. The trainees were subsequently employed by the Tubigon Loom Weavers Multi-purpose Cooperative (TLMPC), to which the project also provided assistance in the form of raw materials benefitting 86 men and women employees of TLMPC.

13 The loom weaving training led to a transfer of technology from the Interlace Weavers Corporation to TLMPC. The new technology introduced was smartly designed to further improve the weaver’s skills and capabilities, allowing them to create new patterns using mix-media weaving. Unlike traditional bamboo reed handlooms that could only create 24-inch woven fabric, the new technology allowed the weavers to produce a much longer 72-inch woven fabric using fibers from abaca, buntal, and raffia.

TLMPC products include bags, lamp shades, glass coasters, tea mats, purse, table runners, raffia rolls and placemats, which are made of abaca, polyester and raffia fiber supplied by providers from neighbouring towns. The training and raw materials provided by UNDP allowed TLMPC to create new concepts and designs, and enabled them to expand their market and obtain orders from Europe leading to an increase in monthly average sales from PhP 200,000 to PhP 500,000.

Similarly, the project distributed veterinary drugs such as medicines for de-worming, vaccines, minerals and vitamins. This particular initiative of the project, which helped mitigate livestock production depletion, compensated for a budget shortfall of the target LGUs, which had allocated for other rehabilitation activities its original budget allocation for livestock support. A total of 3,171 families received this assistance from the project for their 9,513 livestock animals.

In order to revive fishing activities and increase the volume of fish caught that would be sold in the markets and generate income for the earthquake-affected families, the project also provided 254 families with materials such as fish pots and fish nets.

Finally, mushroom production was supported by the project as the needed technology already existed in the target municipalities and thus replication and expansion would be easier. Mushroom production assistance benefitted a total of 50 beneficiaries.

A project orientation and planning workshop was conducted in March 2014 to level off with LGU partners, particularly municipal disaster risk reduction and management (DRRM) officers and municipal planning and development officers, on the planned DRRM activities to be undertaken by the project. Specific timelines were set for the implementation of activities.

The project organized a province-wide DRRM training for all 47 municipalities of Bohol and the provincial government. Conducted by UNDP partners from the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB), Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) and the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), the training focused on hazard awareness, map appreciation and site investigation and was attended by 81 municipal engineers and municipal planning and development officers, and 49 representatives from various NGOs and international agencies. The activity gave the participants an opportunity to craft site assessment reports for their respective municipalities. High susceptibility to landslide was noted and recommended for inclusion in the Local DRRM Plan.

A Technical Exchange Workshop on DRRM and CCA was organized between the Provinces of Bohol and Albay, the latter being an internationally recognized LGU for its good practices in DRRM and CCA. The workshop was held at the CCA and DRRM Training Institute in Legazpi City and was attended by 28 LGU technical staff and 31 local chief executives. The activity served as an opportunity for experts from the LGU of Albay to share their experiences, knowledge, success stories, strategies and challenges with their Bohol counterparts. The workshop also served as a preparatory activity for the crafting of Local DRRM Plans and led the governor of Bohol to consider the possibility of establishing a CCA/DRRM training institute in his own province.

16 A series of workshops was held to facilitate the formulation of local DRRM plans for each of the project’s target municipal LGUs and the provincial government of Bohol. A total of 10 Local DRRM Plans were formulated and adopted by the LGUs through a resolution passed by their respective Sangguniang Bayan/Sangguniang Panlalawigan (local councils). The project organized a three-day Contingency Planning Workshop conducted by the Office of Civil Defense (OCD) Region VII leading to the development of 11 contingency plans also for the project’s target LGUs.

Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials on DRRM (i.e. 500 posters and 10,000 booklets) were distributed to all barangays of Bohol and public schools. The IEC materials showcased a Boholano family depicted to be more informed about what to do and not to do before, during and after a natural disaster.

17 CROSS-CUTTING THEMES

In carrying out the various project interventions, UNDP integrated gender and environmental concerns by ensuring women participation and access to livelihood opportunities and DRRM training, and the promotion of sound environmental practices.

Women participated in debris clearing activities particularly in segregating recoverable materials, clearing/pulling out of debris, and administrative work (e.g. checking of attendance): 18.2 per cent of the cash-for-work participants were women. With respect to the project’s livelihood interventions, the inclusion of women beneficiaries was likewise actively advocated by the project: 94 per cent in loom weaving, 78 per cent in vegetable production, 26 per cent in rice production, and 86 per cent in mushroom production. With respect to DRRM capacity building activities, 40 per cent or 161 of the 399 participants in all trainings and workshops conducted were women.

Sound environmental practices were promoted by UNDP, particularly the recycling/re-use of debris, and debris disposal in accordance with the segregation and dumpsite identification standards set out in the Solid Waste Management Law. The project likewise promoted environmentally friendly production inputs such as open-pollinated variety of seeds, organic fertilizers and certified seeds. The Municipal Agriculture Offices also conducted IEC activities for fisher folk concerning the issue of climate change and its effects on fishing activities.

18 GOOD PRACTICES

 UNDP’s consultative and multi-stakeholder approach, which guaranteed the participation of key concerned parties in the identification and validation of needs in the affected communities, led to an effective design of project interventions, greater acceptability of such interventions by the communities, and a good working relationship among the stakeholders involved.

 Close coordination with LGUs in all phases of implementation, whether directly by UNDP or through the project’s NGO partners, resulted in the prompt completion of activities, particularly those related to debris clearing.

 Supplying the cash-for-work participants with adequate information on the importance of safety and use of the PPEs, prior to the performance of their duties, helped ensure their safety during cash-for-work operations.

 Designating an office within the LGU (i.e. Municipal Engineering Office) to be the property custodian of used hand tools helped ensure the proper management of acquired goods and materials, which could still be used for similar operations and boost the LGUs preparedness to respond to future disasters.

 The engagement of NGOs with local knowledge, experience and ground presence in Bohol province as service providers contributed in ensuring the efficient and timely implementation of project activities.

19 LESSONS LEARNED

 Quality control of the tools used in debris clearing is important to ensure optimum performance of such tools during actual cash-for-work operations. Specific debris clearing activities need to be taken into account when identifying the tools to be used by the workers in order to avoid unexpected breakage.

 Early identification of suppliers of livelihood inputs is important to ensure the prompt delivery of these inputs to the target communities. That local suppliers may have been affected by the disaster and that external suppliers instead may be needed to compensate for the shortage in supply must be taken into account.

20 VISIBILITY INITIATIVES

 The assistance provided by the project and its donors was made known to the public through various visibility initiatives. During major activities such as turn-over ceremonies, tarpaulins were put up reflecting the Japanese flag and logos of other project donors and partners, along with the activity title, to make the receiving communities aware of the assistance being provided and its source.

 Tarpaulins were likewise displayed along main roads and public places, activity areas, livelihood sites and workshop venues.

 Project shirts bearing the Japanese flag were also used by UNDP staff, project partners and cash- for-work participants during large-scale debris clearing operations.
