AbstractForest policies in the Philippines saw a change from forest utilization to forest conservationthrough the establishment of protected areas. This forest policy change was analyzed fromthe perspective of Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF). This study looks into whetherthe NIPAS Act, the first major law instituted between 1975 and 2003 to address bothconservation strategies and people’s participation, came into fruition due to the beliefsystems of the policy actors. The various belief systems during the policy making processof the NIPAS Act were determined using conceptual (content) analysis of documents, theprimary method of the study. The analysis was done on two levels: at the national level andat the local (represented by Subic Bay Protected Area). As a result, three major advocacycoalitions were identified (Social Concern, Environment and Economic Development) atboth levels. Each coalition has its own belief systems which bind its policy actors.Moreover, external perturbations were identified which influenced these advocacy coalitionsin the same manner as causal drivers of policy change.The synthesis of the outputs of the two analyses undertaken at national and local levels shednew light on what the Philippine protected area policy making process looks like.Key words:Advocacy Coalition Framework, Policy Change, Philippine Forest Policy, Policy Process,Belief Systems, Protected Areas, NIPAS Act, Policy Actors, Conceptual Analysis,Advocacy Coalitions8
