Social preparedness assessment of two (2) community forestry project areas in the Philippines
1995
Francisco, V.M.A.
The study sought to present and analyze the manner and extent of "social preparedness" in two Community Forestry project sites in the Philippines. The study shows that while the Community Forestry Program is a very well grounded effort to advance rural development thru community-based resource management, its success mainly depends on its first stage of implementation - the Social Preparation Phase. While both areas were able to muster commendable bio-physical achievements in terms of environmental rehabilitation, both areas have failed in preparing the people to act, manage, and promote collective efforts for community or organizational gain. Emphasis on the program was given to the bio-physical accomplishments as a basis for successes much to the demise of socially transforming the community members to become self-reliant. Instead, the participants viewed the program as an income generating opportunity by working on the bio-physical aspects without internalizing the long term goals of the program. In the three variables used in the framework of this paper, the concept of social preparedness is nowhere near the present state of the Sta. Elena and Adams organizations
