Ongoing Activity leader: Joan Castro
Activity Start: July 1, 2009 Activity End: April 2010
RATIONALE FOR ACTIVITY
Through a cost sharing arrangement, PFPI currently implements the integrated Population- Poverty-Environment PPE project in the Danajon eco region and the Verde Passage in the
Philippines. During Year 1, the BALANCED Project supported the implementation of a BMS in the Danajon and Verde Passage regions to gather information on poverty, food insecurity and
climate change or other links that influence PHE in the target areas and to establish baseline data on current levels of family planning and coastal conservation practice. Results from the surveys
will also assist PFPI to adapt and refine the PPE project strategy and interventions, as well as behavior change messages.
ACTIVITY SUMMARY
As part of its PPE project, PFPI will continue to collaborate with CI and the Lopez Group in selected areas in the Verde Passage to build the capacity of communities to implement integrated
PHE approaches. PFPI will also expand its PHE work to a watershed complex in the province of Samar Mt.Cabalantian-Mt. Capotoan, which is a new PHE dimension for PFPI.
In Year 2, data from the BMS conducted during Year 1 will be analyzed with BALANCED support. The results will be shared with the local network of PHE collaborators in the Danajon
and Verde Passage regions and used to refine the PPE program strategy and IEC interventions. The lessons learned in the process will be documented for dissemination to wider audience
through BALANCED knowledge management activities. Specific activities will include:
• Analyze BMS survey results and produce and disseminate written report to local
stakeholders and BALANCED •
Continue providing technical support to stakeholders in Danajon and Verde eco-regions •
Document lessons learned in the PHE scale-up in Samar watershed complex
