    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.

    The politics of community resilience-building in Laguinbanwa, Ibajay, Aklan
    Andres, Darine Jane R.; Venus, Ervin Ralph S. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2016-05)
    Community resilience is the ability of the community system and its component parts to anticipate, absorb, accommodate or recover from the effects of a hazardous event in a timely and efficient manner while ensuring the preservation, restoration, or improvement of its essential basic structures and functions (IPCC, 2012). This research focuses on the politics of community resilience-building in Laguinbanwa, Ibajay, Aklan. A review of secondary data, thematic analysis of interviews, and quantitative survey were done to assess the physico-environmental, economic-human, socio-cultural, and politico-institutional contexts in the barangay before and after Typhoon Yolanda. Public policy changes and lessons learned following the effects and damages brought by the typhoon were identified and analyzed. Analysis of the coordination among stakeholders, including the local community, barangay council, LGUs, NGOs, and national agencies, were done to unfold the politics of resilience building. The results revealed that there are significant changes in DRR-CCA policies of the state actors and increased local knowledge on disasters by non-state actors. There are also conflicting frames and perceptions of disasters among the stakeholders, affecting their actions on DRR-CCA policies and programs. The observed attempts at coordination and organizational linkages among stakeholders facilitate the overall development of the barangay, creating a more resilient community.
