Guidelines on the Implementation of PAMANA Family-based Livelihood Enterprise cum Cooperative Program

Chapter I: General Preview on PAMANA Program

One of the cornerstones of the Aquino Administration is a just, inclusive and lasting peace which has been embodied in the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) of 2011-2016.

To strengthen this, the government has adopted a two-track approach: 1) negotiated political settlement of all armed conflict through peace negotiations; and 2) undertaking a converged peace building programs, aimed at addressing the root causes of conflict and issues affecting the peace process.

Thus, Payapa at Masaganang Pamayanan (PAMANA) was launched as a priority program of the current leadership as embodied in chapter 9 (Peace and Security) of the Philippine Development Plan (PDP). It serves as a framework for intervention in the conflict-affected and vulnerable areas to complement the governments peace negotiation efforts in line with its commitment to address the causes of conflicts and issues affecting the peace process.

The PAMANA Program aims to contribute to lasting peace by achieving the following objectives: a) Reduce poverty and vulnerability in the conflict-affected areas; b) Improve governance; and c) Empower communities and strengthen their capacities to address issues of conflict and peace through activities that promote social cohesion.

PAMANA was first implemented in ARMM in 2011 through the national agencies. However, beginning 2013, PAMANA implementation in the ARMM has been lodged to the Office of the Regional Governor (ORG).

(Excerpt from the Executive Summary of the PAMANA Manual of Operations, ARMM-PMO)

Chapter II: Introduction

The Payapa at Masaganang Pamayanan Program or Peaceful and Resilient Communities is the governments peace and development framework to respond and strengthen peace-building, reconstruction and development in conflict affected areas (CAAs) that complement the government's peace negotiation efforts.

PAMANA aims to: (a) reduce poverty and vulnerability in conflict-affected areas; (b) improve governance; and (c) empower communities and strengthen their capacity to address issues of conflict and peace. On the national level, PAMANA rests on the three main pillars:

1) Pillar I Building the foundation for peace. These are interventions at the macro-level that help establish the foundations of peace and the building of communities through policy reform and development.

2) Pillar II Establishing Resilient Communities. This refers to micro-level interventions, which includes delivery of basic services and goods focused on households and communities.

3) Pillar III - Addressing Regional Development. Referring to meso-level interventions that address local development challenges - including constraints to local economic development, economic integration and physical and economic connectivity improvements.

Among these pillars, the Department of Social Welfare and Development is mandated to facilitate Pillar I and to implement Pillar II respectively. PAMANA was first implemented in ARMM in 2011 through national agencies.

Chapter III: RationaleNearing to completion of its first launch, the PAMANA Program in DSWD-ARMM is currently in the move in finishing the pre-targeted 386 Barangays in the 25 Municipalities of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).

Considering these new developments, the DSWD-ARMM will continue to implement the remaining 1,773 Barangays in the 77 Municipalities to saturate the entire total target of 2,159 Barangays in the Autonomous Region.

Looking closer in the implementation of cycles 1 and 2 of Pillar II, most proposals being implemented focused on the provision of community-based infrastructure projects on the delivery of basic services or on support livelihood programs. However, the most pressing problem on the high incidence of poverty in the Autonomous Region has continued to be significantly alarming for the PAMANA Program.

In this recourse, the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Operations (ASECO) of the DSWD-ARMM which is a subsidiary unit of ARMM-PMO, being the delegated office in social welfare among the members of the PAMANA Management Office (PMO), a sub-office of PAMANA Steering Committee which is the repository unit acting as a secretariat and coordinator of all PAMANA implementations among the concerned departments, has initiated to create an alternative menu of projects that will cater and push deeper the aims of the PAMANA Program.

Challenged by the result of a national study conducted by the National Statistics and Coordination Board in 2012 which identifies our region as the poorest in the entire country, this concept strongly stands on the premise that a provision of a sustainable livelihood program to our Conflict-Affected Communities in ARMM will widen our roads to Peace and Development.

Chapter IV: General Program Description

This concept on PAMANA Livelihood Program is a community-based capital-assistance program that incorporates the Peace and Development Fund from the Office of the Presidential Adviser on Peace and Process to a more doable and fitting mechanism of encouraging and ensuring sustainable enterprise among the communities of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.

Facilitated by a formation of a DSWD-based PAMANA Management Office (PMO), this program highlights the participation and representation of one subsistence-level household or family representative to the 30-member Community Livelihood Association in every 1,773 target Conflict Affected Areas (CAA) and Conflict Vulnerable Areas (CVA).

Moreover being a livelihood/enterprise-assistance program, the DSWD-PMO shall create an enterprising menu of projects and mechanisms to promote sustainability initiatives in a simplified Community-Driven Development Process. In addition, the program target barangays in the entire Autonomous Region were pre-selected by the OPAPP.

Chapter V: ObjectivesUnder Pillar II in the pursuit of facilitating a livelihood program for PAMANA Communities, the following are the objectives of this concept:

General

To improve and facilitate livelihood/enterprise development among capable and economically active poor to uplift their socio-economic status above the marginal line thereby enabling them as active agents of peace in the ARMM.

Specific

To form/organize and develop community-based associations that can manage livelihood-support assistance of the Program. To strengthen the social bonding among family and association members and inculcate in them the necessary values to successfully carry out their respective micro-enterprises and exercise social responsibility by instilling a capital-transfer scheme for other members of the Community. To augment family income through the provision of capital-assistance grant thereby facilitating towards self-managed micro-enterprises. To continually enhance participants capacity to manage and expand their micro-enterprises through the provision of appropriate technical assistance. To put in place mechanisms that shall ensure sustainability of participants micro-enterprise. To sustain the association by forming the CLAs into CDA-registered cooperatives.Chapter VI: Coverage, Peace & Development Fund (PDF) and Program Timeline Under Pillar II, the PAMANA Family-based Livelihood Enterprise cum Cooperative Program shall be implemented in pre-identified Conflict-Affected Areas and Conflict-Vulnerable Areas in the five (5) provinces and two cities of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. The total target beneficiaries for this pillar is 2,159 Barangays- 386 of which are implemented in 2013 and 1,773 would commence this year. The Peace & Development Fund (PDF) amount to PhP300, 000 shall be allocated and released to duly organized Community Livelihood Associations for enterprise and livelihood activities/development in the said target areas.Below are tables that will demonstrate the total number of Barangays covered in each Municipality and Province in the ARMM for the PAMANA Pillar II.Table I.

Chapter VII: Target Participants and Community Livelihood Association (CLA)I. Criteria in identifying the Program ParticipantsThe following are the criteria of selection in identifying our program participants:1. At least 18 years of age who are 4Ps or Pantawid Beneficiaries and who are unserved by SLP.2. However, 4ps or Pantawid Beneficiaries must belong to the subsistence level category to be considered.3. Among eligible 4Ps or Pantawid Beneficiaries, priority are given to the recommended individuals by the Municipal Links, in consideration of the following criteria:a. Much-needingb. Most willing to participate in the livelihood programc. Active in community assemblies and in Family Development Sessions d. Enterprisinge. With full ability and trust to follow the guideline of the program especially the capital-transfer schemef. Who shows improvement in the standard of living based from the result of Social Welfare Indicators (SWI)4. Next priority are non-Pantawid Beneficiaries in the community who belong in the subsistence level category, who are not beneficiary of any PAMANA livelihood program of other Departments in ARMM and who met the criteria above.II. Criteria in identifying the Program BeneficiariesThe program beneficiary refers to the recipient of the Capital-Transfer Scheme of the chosen livelihood enterprise by the program participant. The same criteria shall be used as a standard in identifying the program beneficiaries. III. The Community Livelihood Association (CLA) The CLA shall be composed of a maximum number of 30 beneficiaries who individually represents one family in the community. In each target Barangay, only one Community Livelihood Association shall be organized.The CLA shall have their own officers, constitution and by-laws and must have their own bank accounts. Funds will be released from DSWD directly to CLAs. The duties and functions of the CLA are provided in the Institutional Arrangement part of this document.The Municipal Social Welfare, upon confirmation from the Barangay LGU, shall be responsible in issuing a certification attesting the legitimacy of the individual members of the Association.Organizational Meetings among the members and officers of the association shall be conducted on a monthly basis. The Community Facilitator has the moral obligation to mediate emerging issues among erring CLA members.Chapter VIII: Project Mechanisms (Menu of Livelihood Projects & Capital Transfer Schemes)The implementation of PAMANA Family-based Livelihood Enterprise cum Cooperative Program shall be guided by the Community-Driven Development (CDD) strategies and processes.The entire CDD process is simplified into easier activities which hope to enable participants to develop and pursue a livelihood enterprise. The CDD process also seeks to encourage local government units to jointly undertake initiatives to pursue and support the program strategies and operations.Enterprises that will develop under the CDD process envision to spread the program benefits not only to the members of Community Livelihood Associations (CLA) but also to other members of the community.A. Menu of Livelihood ProjectsThe program shall support projects that meet the objective of promoting livelihood development, among the following key modalities:I. Agricultural and Aquatic Production- this enterprise includes provision of agricultural and aquaculture inputs, supply and technology.Examples are: supply of seedlings and fingerlings, provision of fishing nets and other farm inputs, capital provision, backyard gardening inputs, bao-bao /kuliglig (land tiller), sea-weeds farming, etc.

II. Animal Dispersal- this includes production and raising of any livestock and poultry animals.Examples are: goat and other livestock animal raising, poultry raising, feeds and other animal supplyIII. Cottage Industry- this includes enterprises on livelihood activities which do not fall among the two modalities above. This includes furniture making, pottery, handicrafts on all forms, among others.Examples are: water-lily/abaca production, brass making, waka, wood-carving, palapa making, etc.

IV. Pre and post-harvest facilities, machineries and equipment- these include procurement of equipment needed in any agricultural and aquatic activities, construction of livelihood-related infrastructure and/or buy and sell.*Examples are: rice mill, corn sheller, motorized banca, bagsakan center, solar drier, fish landing(*Possible only if ten or more beneficiary wanted to combine their fund and collectively decide to construct or buy shared-center facilities, machineries or equipment.)

Other forms of livelihood projects not indicated therein (such as grocery store, sari-sari store, etc.) are highly discouraged.B. Capital Transfer SchemeOne unique mechanism of this concept is its distinct strategy for sustainability which shall be termed as capital transfer. The capital-transfer scheme is a program strategy that shall facilitate the actual implementation of the peace and development fund/capital-assistance provided to our participants and serves as an alternative methodology of a non-monetary roll-back mechanism geared to encourage social responsibility among the participants, thereby spreading the benefits of the program to the other members of the community.

Depending on the kind of livelihood project chosen by the family representative, each CLA member is bound to follow these proposed simple non-monetary capital-transfer mechanisms.

Type of Livelihood ProjectCapital-Transfer Scheme

1. Agricultural and Aquatic Production ProjectTransfer of 2 sacks of seedlings/Transfer of equitable quantity of aquatic produce.

2. Animal Dispersal30:30 Scheme- Offspring of Animal Raising Projects shall be transferred to another pre-identified adopted family/recipients/group

3. Cottage IndustryTechnology and equipment Transfer(skills and implements)

4. Pre and post-harvest facilities, machineries and equipmentAccess of free-use of facilities/ machinery/ equipment and Labor Scheme with Commission(timeframe is consensus-based)

Each scheme is designed to transfer the total sum of the capital assistance extended to the program participant to the program beneficiaries. The time allotted for each participant to transfer the capital given has a maximum period of 1 year or in a timeframe agreed in a consensus by the participant and the beneficiary. Chapter IX: Implementing Procedures

The five stages of CDD strategy includes: (i) Preliminary Activities Stage; (ii) Social Preparation Stage; (iii) Project Proposal Stage, (iv) Implementation Stage, (v) Project Monitoring and Sustainability Stage.

Templates in the annexes of this document are provided by the DSWD-PAMANA Management Office to guide Community Facilitators (CFs) in implementing the PAMANA Family-based Livelihood Enterprise cum Cooperative Program.

Stage I: Preliminary Activities Stage

This stage launches the first engagement of the community facilitator to the community and the Barangay and Municipal LGU to get full commitment and support for the success of the program. Orientations and profiling are the paramount responsibilities for our community facilitators.

Courtesy CallTo ensure proper protocol and knowledge about the launching of our program before going to our communities, the Community Facilitator will need to pay courtesies to the Municipal Mayor of the Municipality and the Barangay Chairmen of their areas of assignment. This is the formal opportunity for our Community Facilitators to build partnership and linkages to the community leaders. The Municipal Social Welfare Officers are requested to assist our Municipal Coordinators and Community Facilitators in this engagement.

Community OrientationThe Community Facilitator shall gather the community for the PAMANA program orientation. The goal of this activity is to set common understanding about the project. The Community Facilitator shall discuss clearly the livelihood concept, selection criteria and the formation of Community Livelihood Association (CLA), the menu of livelihood projects, mechanism for Capital Transfer and other necessary details of the program. The BLGU are asked to extend assistance to our Community Facilitators.

Social Investigation and Beneficiary ProfilingIdentification of program participants/beneficiaries is one of the crucial roles of the Community Facilitators. The CF should coordinate with our Pantawid Municipal Links to get a copy and a review on the existing subsistence level families in the community where he/she is assigned. Furthermore, pre-formatted templates of barangay and household profiles will be used in systematically outlining the families in subsistence-level category in the community and the basic scanning of the social environment of the assigned barangay.Key Results: 1,773 Barangays Oriented 1,773 Profiled Barangays 1,773 Profiled CLA 53,190 Profiled Families

Stage II: Social Preparation Stage

This stage includes formation of Community Livelihood Associations (CLA) that will go through short sessions of organizational development interventions on project assessment, basic business management skills training and formulation of individual project proposals. Aspiring program participants shall qualify to the criteria indicated in the project target beneficiaries to become members of the CLA. Also, CF shall assists members of the CLA to rank identified livelihood projects based on the PNA results.

CLA Formation and Orientation

As a result of the Beneficiary Profiling, thirty (30) members of the CLA shall formally organize themselves, elect officers and design the structure of their association.

Along our Program Participants/Beneficiaries, the Community Facilitator shall also facilitate the identification of another 30 pre-identified beneficiaries whom shall serve as partners and recipients for the Capital Transfer scheme of the PAMANA. The criteria in selection of the Capital Transfer Beneficiaries will be based on the consensus of the 30 CLA Members in accordance with the criteria of selection stated in Chapter 7, section 1, number 3, except letter f.

Project Needs Assessment

Following our menu of livelihood projects, the Community Facilitator assists the program participants/beneficiaries in identifying and ranking the best suited livelihood enterprise in their area using the template on Needs Assessment. This serves as a critical study on project feasibility, production-market relationship, operational and management system and project sustainability.

Participatory Community Livelihood TrainingIn this part, the primary roles of the Community Facilitator are to re-echo the training on Basic Business Management Skills & Training (BBMST) and to assist the participants to formulate their own individual project proposals. The CF must critically guide the participants in crafting the proposals taking into account the results of the project needs assessment.

Key Results:

1,773 formed CLA with elected officers 1,773 Identified 30 Program Recipients List of Identified Projects and Potential Market 1,773 CLA capacitated on BBMST 53,190 Individual Project Proposals

Stage III: Project Proposal Stage

At this level, the Community Facilitator shall prepare the final project proposal from the individual proposals of the 30 members of CLA to be submitted to the Municipal Coordinator for review and evaluation, taking into consideration the technical aspects and budget requirements of the proposal..The CF then shall assist the members of the CLA to furnish and provide other necessary attachments for the proposal. To wit,

Constitution and By Laws the Community Facilitator will guide the participants in crafting a customized Constitution and By Laws of the Community Livelihood Association. Barangay Profile a template is attached in this document for the data sourcing. Association Picture consists of all 30 members of the CLA. Individual Family Profile a separate template shall also be used by the Community Facilitator in this profile. Bank Account (photocopy) the Association President and the Treasurer will be responsible in opening a joint account for the association through the facilitation of the Community Facilitator. Barangay Residency Certification each member of the CLA and the 30 Capital Transfer Beneficiaries shall provide a Barangay certification proving there are legitimate residents of the area. Barangay Resolution recognizing and supporting the CLA. MSWO Certification the Community Facilitator will coordinate to the Municipal Social Welfare Officer in furnishing a certification attesting that the Community Livelihood Association (CLA) was duly organized and an existing association in the Municipality.

Upon completion of these attachments, the Community Facilitator shall submit all the said documents to the Municipal Coordinator for review and evaluation. After assessment, the Municipal Coordinator shall submit the final and complete folder to the Provincial Project Development Officer (PDO). The Provincial PDO along with the Provincial PAMANA Team shall review all the folders of the Municipalities. Only then, the Provincial PAMANA Team through the Provincial Social Welfare shall endorse all the folders to the Regional PMO for approval and funding.

Key Results: Finalized Individual and/or Group Project Proposals Consolidated CLA Project Proposals Duly Accomplished CLA Project Proposal Attachments 1,773 Project Proposals endorsed by the PSWO & obligated to Regional Finance Unit

Stage IV: Implementation StageAfter forwarding the folders to the Regional PMO, the Provincial PDO now takes the lead in processing and facilitating the developments of the project proposals to be finally approved and funded by the Regional Office. At this stage, the Community Facilitators will be reduced in half and will be clustered to a ratio of 1 Community Facilitator: 12 Barangays from the original ratio of 1 Community Facilitator: 6 Barangays. Also for the Municipal Coordinators, the clustering ratio will be 1 Municipal Coordinator: 50 Barangays from the original 30 number of Barangays.After the release of fund, the Community Facilitator and the Municipal Coordinator will work in tandem in assisting the members of the Community Livelihood Association in procuring the necessary materials/livelihood item of the chosen enterprise.Key Results: Downloaded Fund to 1,773 CLAs Clustered Municipal Coordinators and Community Facilitators into their respective Barangays. Procured materials/livelihood item

Stage V: Project Monitoring and Sustainability StageProvision of technical assistance (TA) through mentoring, coaching and monitoring is the main intervention in this stage. The Technical Assistance is meant to assist the program participants/beneficiaries in managing their livelihood effectively and efficiently as designed in their project proposals, prepare them towards being organizationally stable, and on monitoring the actual realization of capital transfer scheme chosen by the CLA members.

Key Results: Documented Success Stories Monitoring and Evaluation Tools and Templates Output Consolidated list of active & potential CLAs recommendable as Cooperatives
