The baseline survey of the KALAHI-CIDSS project in the Philippines is an attempt to generate such insights and strengthen learning about CDD programs through rigorous evaluations. This evaluation follows the “good practices” prescribed by experts in that it collects quality baseline data in a representative sample of both intervention groups and matched comparison groups. This baseline survey not only provides valuable information about the KALAHI-CIDSS project, but also offers some guidance on developing technically sound evaluations for CDD programs. One of the most promising CDD operations in the East Asia region, and in the Bank portfolio, is the KALAHI-CIDSS project in the Philippines, implemented by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). In accordance with the imperative to learn what works, the DSWD and the World Bank are committed to a careful impact evaluation of the KALAHI-CIDSS. As the source of ex-ante information for the KALAHI-CIDSS, a quantitative baseline survey was implemented in Phase 3 municipalities in the fall of 2003. It served as the first round of a panel survey that will track 2,400 households and 132 villages before, during, and after project implementation1. The survey captures information on household and village conditions in intervention and comparison communities. In future rounds, the survey will be complemented by a qualitative component to allow for triangulation of information and a richer and more detailed analysis. This data will primarily provide baseline information for determining the impact of the KALAHI-CIDSS on poverty reduction, social capital, empowerment and governance. In addition, a deeper understanding of the areas in which the KALAHI-CIDSS will operate has great value of its own. Together with lessons learned from project implementation to date, the baseline survey for the KALAHI-CIDSS impact evaluation provides valuable information for project management. The survey finds that poverty is widespread in KALAHI-CIDSS municipalities. In all dimensions of poverty, means (income/expenditure, quality of labor supply), outcomes (education, health, housing and amenities) and perception (self-rated poverty), the incidence of poverty is estimated to be very high. The baseline survey also gets villagers’ pre-intervention status on access to neighboring villages, local markets, schools, and other public facilities; travel time and transport costs; water and sanitation; health conditions; and education outcomes. In general, access conditions are very limited, indicating the poverty in KALAHI-CIDSS municipalities. Road conditions and access to water are especially poor when compared to other facilities such as education and health. This may explain the large preference of early KALAHI-CIDSS villages to build roads and water systems. Some of the challenges for the KALAHI-CIDSS include: · understanding how the project can build on existing social dynamics and practices in the villages to facilitate participation, and · promoting the emergence of capable leaders, and internalizing transparent communication and management practices. For example, the capability of communities to organize themselves is a key variable relevant to the success of the project. Community capacity to organize can be measured by social capital conditions, which includes trust, inclusion, groups and networks, collective action, and information and communication. Measuring initial social capital conditions in KALAHI-CIDSS municipalities allows for an assessment of whether 1 Funding for further data collection has been secured through the Japan Social Development Fund. ii communities with more social capital are more effective in having their proposals funded and in implementing their sub-projects. It also provides useful information to project management about existing conditions that facilitate or hinder KALAHI-CIDSS implementation. Social capital and governance indicators vary across the survey municipalities but seem to be stronger in the relatively deprived areas in Mindanao. There is, for example, a remarkably strong tradition of Bayanihan2/collective action in KALAHI-CIDSS municipalities in Mindanao. Despite low levels of trust and problems with conflict and violence in all four survey provinces, most respondents perceive their village as relatively peaceful. Interestingly, the two provinces in Mindanao, where peace and order problems are widespread, perceive themselves as most peaceful. A key finding of the survey is that different regions in the country vary quite substantially both in terms of poverty

    Oil Palm Expansion in South East Asia: trends and implications for local communities and indigenous peoples 4. Oil palm expansion in the Philippines Analysis of land rights, environment and food security issues5 Jo Villanueva Introduction In recent years, the unprecedented and rapid expansion of oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia, particularly in Malaysia and Indonesia, has spurred considerable concern in the light of its adverse impact on the environment, biodiversity, global warming, 5 This study has also been published as a chapter in “Oil Palm Expansion in South East Asia: Trends and Implications for Local Communities and Indigenous Peoples. (FPP & SawitWatch 2011). Oil Palm Expansion in South East Asia: trends and implications for local communities and indigenous peoples the displacement of local (and indigenous) communities, the erosion of traditional livelihoods, and the undermining of indigenous peoples and workers‟ rights. In Indonesia, oil palm expansion has contributed to deforestation, peat degradation, loss of biodiversity, ravaging forest fires and a wide range of unresolved social conflicts. In Sarawak, Malaysia, the impact of oil palm includes loss and destruction of forest resources, unequal profit-sharing, water pollution and soil nutrient depletion. In the midst of the increasing profitability of palm oil in the world market, the versatility of its by- products and its potential as a source of biomass in the food and manufacturing industry, a raging debate has ensued between and amongst civil society and industry members over whether palm oil is a necessary evil or whether the costs of this industry on lives, land and environment far outweigh its worth. Although considered a fledgling industry in the Philippine agribusiness sector and while its size is certainly small compared to the millions of hectares of oil palm plantations in Malaysia and Indonesia, the Philippines has been cultivating and processing palm oil for the past three decades.

  • Binanog Dance
    Gluck Classroom Fellow: Jemuel Jr. Barrera-Garcia Ph.D. Student in Critical Dance Studies: Designated Emphasis in Southeast Asian Studies Flying Without Wings: The Philippines’ Binanog Dance Binanog is an indigenous dance from the Philippines that features the movement of an eagle/hawk to the symbolic beating of bamboo and gong that synchronizes the pulsating movements of the feet and the hands of the lead and follow dancers. This specific type of Binanog dance comes from the Panay-Bukidnon indigenous community in Panay Island, Western Visayas, Philippines. The Panay Bukidnon, also known as Suludnon, Tumandok or Panayanon Sulud is usually the identified indigenous group associated with the region and whose territory cover the mountains connecting the provinces of Iloilo, Capiz and Aklan in the island of Panay, one of the main Visayan islands of the Philippines. Aside from the Aetas living in Aklan and Capiz, this indigenous group is known to be the only ethnic Visayan language-speaking community in Western Visayas. SMILE. A pair of Binanog dancers take a pose They were once associated culturally as speakers after a performance in a public space. of the island’s languages namely Kinaray-a, Akeanon and Hiligaynon, most speakers of which reside in the lowlands of Panay and their geographical remoteness from Spanish conquest, the US invasion of the country, and the hairline exposure they had with the Japanese attacks resulted in a continuation of a pre-Hispanic culture and tradition. The Suludnon is believed to have descended from the migrating Indonesians coming from Mainland Asia. The women have developed a passion for beauty wearing jewelry made from Spanish coins strung together called biningkit, a waistband of coins called a wakus, and a headdress of coins known as a pundong.
