Georgina Nora Mary Jordan The response of small scale agricultural producers in the Philippines to livelihood threats arising from market integration has received less attention than responses to other threats. The ability of agricultural producers to respond to changes in their production environment is an important component of livelihood resilience. This research unravels the patterns of livelihood response used by small scale agricultural producers in the Philippines affected by livelihood threats resulting from changes in their production environment as a result of agricultural trade liberalisation. Research was conducted at the household level using a sustainable livelihoods based approach in order to examine the following research questions: (1) Does current livelihood and disaster theory adequately account for and explain the diverse livelihood options pursued by small scale agricultural producers facing threats based on deterioration?; (2) Are current distinctions between different patterns of responses and the rationale of such responses appropriate?; (3) Are current research methods adequate to the task of picking out individualized patterns and rationales of response?; and (4) What is the role of historical factors (institutional and personal) of past events – in moulding patterns of response? Findings from this study contribute to the limited existing empirical data on livelihood strategies in Mindanao. In particular the research shows that while current research methods capture the various livelihood activities that people engage in, they tend to take a static view of livelihoods, failing to capture the complexity of historical influences on livelihoods and livelihood pathways over time. The findings from the study also demonstrate that factors beyond context which are embedded in personal circumstance play a significant role in the rationale and patterns of livelihood response used by small scale producers in the research sites. The implications of these findings are considered from a wider policy and practice perspective and recommendations as regards the future directions of current research methods are presented.

  • An Assessment of Status and Progress of MDG Accomplishment in Region 12
    Missing Targets: An alternative MDG midterm report An assessment of status and progress of MDG accomplishment in Region 12 By JOSEPH GLORIA* HIS paper tries to assess the government’s positive outlook on the attainment of the Millennium Development Goal targets in Central TMindanao. It tries to answer the question: Will government deliver on its promise on the MDG in Central Mindanao amid constant threats? What government claims The NEDA Region XII assessment on probable MDG attainment in the region gives a rosy picture. On all goals presented, the government claims a high probability of attainment in the region by 2015. Data presented supporting this assessment all point to a positive trend.1 The data are also supported by and con- sistent with by the National Statistical Coordination Board-Region 12’s MDG Statistics Capsule that provided the baseline data for 1997 and data for 2003. * Joseph Gloria is the Mindanao Coordinator of Social Watch Philippines and Assisstant Director for Visayas and Mindanao of Philippine Rural Reconstruction Movement. 1 It should be noted that most of the data presented to support this claims used 2000 as a baseline and trends ending in 2003 as an endpoint.

  • Philippines • Mindanao Response Humanitarian Situation Update 14 September 2011
    Philippines • Mindanao Response Humanitarian Situation Update 14 September 2011 This report is produced by OCHA in collaboration with humanitarian partners. It was issued by OCHA Philippines. It covers the period from 5 August to 14 September 2011. The next report will be issued on or around 10 October. I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES • Clan fighting known as rido erupted anew between the commanders of Moro Islamic Liberation Front and Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Movement, displacing over 2,000 households in North Cotabato Province. Sporadic clan fighting continues to be reported in central Mindanao. • Insecurity is impeding humanitarian response to rido and other armed conflicts. • An estimated 1,700 people remain displaced by the flooding in June. Water is slow to subside in some areas in Sultan Kudarat Province, where 12,600 people can only be reached by boat. • The Mindanao Humanitarian Action Plan 2011 is 50% funded at US$16.6 million with funding support from the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF), Canada, Japan, New Zealand, Philippines, Saudi Arabia and Spain. • Early recovery and livelihood support as well as demining remain severely underfunded. II. Situation Overview CONFLICT OVERVIEW Government–MILF peace process: Whilst the exploratory peace talks between the Government of the Philippines (GPH) and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) resumed on 22 August in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the seeming impasse that followed has brought about an atmosphere of uncertainty. During this 22nd round of peace talks, the Government presented its counter-proposal, which consists of economic development, political settlement with the MILF, and cultural-historical acknowledgement. The MILF had earlier put forward a proposal of a comprehensive peace compact in which they sought autonomy in the form of a “sub-state”, which requires constitutional amendments.
