S u s t a i n a b l e D e v e l o p m e n t A s p e c t s Food Security and Livelihood Management 029 Livelihood programs Description This indicator measures the availability of programs, people, and budget to help enhance coastal livelihoods. It also looks into the sectors benefited and the impacts of these livelihood programs. Rationale Livelihood programs help optimize productivity of coastal areas and help households maximize their potential for income. Data Requirements • Existing livelihood programs • Staff and budget allocation for livelihood programs • Accessibility and budgets • Sectors covered • Impacts of livelihood programs Results The three personnel of the Provincial Agriculture Office (PAO) who are allocated for fisheries management are mainly concerned with enhancing fisheries livelihood, as is their portion of the PhP5M of the PAO budget (2008). Municipal government budgets for livelihood programs range from PhP250,000 to PhP400,000/year (2008). Municipal and city personnel are required to perform various tasks as part of their fisheries management duties, one of which is the implementation of livelihood programs. Livelihood programs (i.e., from PAO and MAOs) are available for the agricultural sector (fishers and farmers) as well as the general population. Livelihood programs vary, including cattle fattening, seaweed production and processing, tilapia dispersal, freshwater ornamental fish dispersal, food processing, and other various skills development training. The private sector (e.g., KIEPCO and First Gas) also conducts various livelihood skills development training in the Province. The number of people benefiting from these livelihood programs, as well as the benefits and impacts of these programs, have not been monitored or recorded. 92 State of the Coasts of Batangas Province
S U S T A I N A B L E D E V E L O P M E N T A S P E C T S Food Security and Livelihood Management Livelihood programs Seaweed farming is an alternative livelihood for fishers in Batangas. Implications and Recommendations A retrospective study and analysis as to the effectiveness of coastal livelihood programs would be worthwhile, given the number of initiatives being undertaken across the Province and the anecdotal reports of failed initiatives. An outcome of improved tracking and recording of results would be scientifically sound, knowledge-based inputs to decision-making regarding the nature and extent of future livelihood programs in the Province.
