Call for Proposals from Ngos Call for Proposals from NGOs/CSOs CFP-009-PHL-2021 Implementing Partner for the UNDP’s Resilient Livelihood Restoration and Recovery Project for the Typhoon Vamco/Ulysses - Province of Cagayan INSTRUCTIONS TO PROPOSERS I. BACKGROUND UNDP partners with people at all levels of society to help build nations that can withstand crisis, and drive and sustain the kind of growth that improves the quality of life for everyone. On the ground in 177 countries and territories, we offer global perspective and local insight to help empower lives and build resilient nations. This Call for Proposals (CFP) is specifically related to the Resilient Livelihood Restoration and Recovery Project in Cagayan Province. II. OBJECTIVES AND EXPECTED OUTPUTS/DELIVERABLES Typhoon Vamco (Ulysses) wreaked havoc across Luzon on 11-12 November 2020 with more than three million people from 5,594 barangays in eight regions affected, with 283,656 people seeking refuge in 2,205 evacuation centres while 158,926 people are in home-based setting. The already swollen Cagayan River in northern Luzon rose quickly, inundating low-lying communities when authorities released water from Magat Dam, one of the largest in the country, to prevent the dam from reaching its critical spilling level. At least 1.1 million people were affected by the flooding in the two provinces of Isabela and Cagayan including Tuguegarao City, which local authorities said were the worst in the region in four decades. The UNDP, working with the provincial government and the affected LGUs on livelihood restoration and recovery, shall provide support in addressing the immediate, medium, and long-term interventions towards economic resiliency through the Typhoon Vamco/Ulysses Resilient Livelihood Restoration and Recovery Project for Cagayan Province. This project aims to support priority most-affected households to restart their livelihoods, targeting over 500 women micro-entrepreneurs and persons-with-disabilities. Detailed objectives, related outputs and deliverables are provided in the Terms of Reference – 1 Annex – 1 The Project shall cover 4 LGUs in Cagayan Province, namely Amulung [western portion], Enrile [eastern portion], affected barangays of Tuguegarao City and Solana. III. ELIGIBILITY & QUALIFICATION CRITERIA The parameters that will determine whether a NGO is eligible to be considered by UNDP will be based on the requirements indicated in the TOR and in NGO Request for Information (RFI) and Capacity Assessment checklist (CACHE) templates herein attached as Annex 2 & 3. NGOs that have already submitted the information requested in the previous process conducted by UNDP Philippines in the year 2020 do not have to resubmit their documents related to the RFI and CACHE template again.

Moreover the proposal should demonstrate how the proposed methodology meets or exceeds the TOR, while ensuring appropriateness of the approach to the local conditions and the rest of the project operating environment. This methodology must be laid out in an implementation timetable and a quality assurance. Management Arrangement, Resources and Qualifications of Key Personnel – This section should include the comprehensive description of the management structure and information regarding required resources including curriculum vitae (CVs) of key personnel that will be assigned to support the implementation of the proposed methodology, clearly defining the roles and responsibilities vis-à-vis the proposed methodology.

(2015). Assessment of veterinary needs in municipalities of the third district of Cagayan: A benchmark survey for extension. Journal of Agricultural Technology Vol. 11(2): 435-448 The study was generally conducted to generate information in extension services particular in Veterinary Medicine practices at the seven municipalities of District III of Cagayan. Specifically, the research aimed to determine the current animal health care practices and the needed assistance received by the families in the municipalities of the third district of Cagayan. The benchmark survey utilized formulated questionnaires randomly distributed to 384, 378, 373, 383, 391, 388 and 395 (95% CI) household respondents from different barangays of Amulung, Enrile, Iguig, Penablanca, Solana, Tuao and Tuguegarao respectively. The household respondents served as the representative samples for the study and the source of the first-hand information for the bench mark survey. All data gathered were collated and analyzed descriptively. Results revealed that 62% of the respondents were aware of the health status of their animals. Seventy one percent (71%) could clearly recognize ill animals yet preferred to resort on other medication and herbal plants (54%) and do self- prescription (28%) rather than go to a veterinarian for advice and consultation.

Guzman* Cagayan State University, Philippines Key words: Agriculture, Vulnerability assessment, Province of Cagayan, Hazards, Risk mapping, Vulnerability Indices. http://dx.doi.org/10.12692/ijb/14.6.426-433 Article published on June 30, 2019 Abstract The Cagayan province, being bounded by mountain ranges and traversed by the great Cagayan River, is vulnerable to different climate hazards. Most of which are typhoons which further cause more destructive aftermaths such as flooding, soil erosion, pests and diseases, economic crises, and others. These incur great losses not only on agriculture, fisheries and infrastructures, but also on human lives. With these, strategies and practices to increase the level of awareness of the communities on the perils brought about by climate change shall be adapted. This paper addresses these problems through vulnerability assessment and mapping using Geographic Information System (GIS) to identify the level of vulnerability of three selected municipalities in the province, with regards to their agriculture and aquaculture production systems. Vulnerability indicators from each study sites and their respective barangays were identified and the vulnerability indices of each were obtained. From this information, vulnerability maps were generated. These maps identify the hazards experienced in each study site, the frequency of hazard occurrence and the level of their vulnerability of each area to these hazards.

  • Broadcast Engineering the North
    Broadcast Engineering the North The Acquaintance One sunny afternoon in September 2016, while driving in downtown Tuguegarao City, licensed Professional Electronics Engineer Grant Ramones noticed a makeshift broadcast antenna on top of a three- storey building that housed one of the oldest FM radio station in the city. The antenna was obviously used by the said FM station as an emergency radiator after a strong typhoon hit the area, bending the tower down and breaking the antenna elements. Being an experienced Broadcast Engineer, Ramones knew the antenna was not appropriate for FM broadcast applications. He searched for the web site of Forefront Radio Network (FRN), the company who owned and operated the FM station, and sent an email to the address on the web site, writing to them about his observations of the antenna and the reasons why the antenna was not fit for FM broadcast applications. He ended the email by providing his contact number. Moments later, Ramones’ phone rang. It was Mr. Jesus Galvente, the President and CEO of FRN. Galvente commended Ramones on his insights and asked to hear more. The conversation then continued with exchanges in views and opinions on radio broadcast operations and the future plans of the network. Galvente described his plans for the network, which were twofold: 1) to improve its listenership over other radio stations in areas where there was presence of an FRN station, and 2) to improve network profit. Particularly, the network planned to have simultaneous broadcast among all its FM stations – also known as “chain broadcasting.” Chain broadcasting or simultaneous broadcasting required connecting all FRN provincial stations that were strategically operating in key places in northern Luzon.
