1.4 Build capacity of NGOs from Coral Triangle CT countries on PHE program design

The Philippines, a CT country, has a number of conservation and development organizations that may benefit from a PHE Program Design workshop. During the previous reporting period, BALANCED provided planning, financial, and organizational support to the Philippines PHE Network SIGUE and worked with them to organize the Fourth PHE Conference. During this reporting period, PFPI participated actively in the planning of this conference. Originally scheduled for May 2010 in the Mindanao, it is now rescheduled for November 2010 in General Santos City—the change of date and venue was necessitated by on-going political unrest in Mindanao. BALANCED is adapting the five-day PHE Program Design workshop to a shorter, one-day training for NGOs interested and able to implement this approach in the CT region. This one-day training will be offered as a pre-conference activity. In Indonesia, another CT country, BALANCED initiated discussions with the United Nations Population Fund UNFPA about supporting a PHE managers’ training in collaboration with a local NGO, Summit Institute for Development SID, during the first part of BALANCED Year 2. Next, PFPI linked SID to UNFPAIndonesia and prepared a concept paper with SID to request UNFPA support. During this reporting period, UNFPA approved SID’s application for 18 designation as an UNFPA-accredited NGO. This now qualifies SID to apply for UNFPA funding support for training. PFPI continued to dialogue with SID to explore their interest in training and BALANCED technical support. At the beginning of Year 2, PFPI also initiated discussions with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration NOAA about the potential to integrate PHE dimensions into the agency’s coastal resources management CRM training curriculum and activities in the CT region. NOAA’s Anne Walton was receptive to the idea, and received funding from USAID Indonesia. However, NOAA remains in the planning stage and a decision on PHE integration has yet to be made. PFPI likewise continued informing the USAID Regional Development Mission for Asia RDMA about ongoing PHE activities and identifying opportunities for PHE integration in CT countries.
