    A tale of two pantries: The case of Iloilo City in time of COVID -19 pandemic
    Bolinas, Neil Alfred L. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2022-07)
    This case study focuses on the community pantries in Barangay Mansaya- Lapuz, Lapuz and Barangay Rizal, La Paz, Iloilo City. Documentation and analysis of the two community pantries were conducted using the data gathered from Key- Informant Interviews and Focus Group Discussions. The simple logic model for Theory of Change (W. K. Kellogg Foundation, 2004) was used as the theoretical framework of the study and guided the analysis. The study showed that two major factors motivated the organization of the pantry. The personal motivations revolved around the organizers’ personal beliefs and principles and the societal motivations includes the increment of poverty and food insecurity experienced by community members. Resources are a vital component of the pantries as this dictates the pantries’ operation and services. The provision of food was the main goal of the pantries, while the objectives focused differently among organizers. During the operations, there are issues and challenges that occurred but were not able to affect the operation of the community pantries. The emergence and operations of the pantry affected community members through their values, practices, and change in socioeconomic conditions. The pantries also produced realizations among the organizers and barangay officials particularly on improving the access to basic needs of the members of the community. The community pantry proved to be significant in addressing food insecurity during crisis times, however the intervention is only a short-term response. Furthermore, the communities are encouraged to address food insecurity guided by needs assessment analysis, strong community engagement, regular budget allocation for the vulnerable families, strong public-partnership, and consistent monitoring and evaluation which are critical components of a community-based food security program learned from their experience.

    Organizing KALAHI-CIDSS communities in Bugasong, Antique: The experience of Barangay Bagtason and Barangay Igsoro
    Arnaiz, Elaine Grace P.; Rodeo, Jay Rose F. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    This undergraduate research entitled “Organizing KALAHI-CIDSS Communities in Bugasong, Antique: The Experience of Barangay Bagtason and Barangay Igsoro” is a documentation and analysis of the Community- Driven Development (CDD) approach to community organizing in the implementation of KALAHI-CIDSS Project in Barangay Bagtason and Barangay Igsoro in the municipality of Bugasong. The community organizing process, in the KALAHI-CIDSS CDD context, refers to the Community Empowerment Activity Cycle (CEAC) which serves as the framework for KALAHI-CIDSS Project implementation. Primarily through Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and Key Informant Interview (KII), the researchers were able to describe the organizing process that has transpired during the course of KALAHI-CIDSS Project implementation in the two barangays along with the challenges that they encountered. The data gathered from F'GDs and KIIs were supplemented by the secondary data obtained from the KALAHI-CIDSS office in Bugasong such as Participatory Situational Analysis (PSA) results, barangay profiles and other relevant records. The data collected from various sources were triangulated to come up with valid discussions, lessons, recommendations and analysis. Consolidation and analysis of the data is guided by the framework of the study and the people-centered development principles espoused by Manalili and Batistiana and Murphy.
