The project follows a program approach
of implementation --
Fully support CBFM as the national strategy for
sustainable forest management
The financing mechanism is designed to
promote sustainable resource management
Investment packages that link livelihood and
infrastructure with natural resource
management

To manage sustainably the forests
and mangroves under CBFMAs and
other forestland tenure instruments
and to alleviate poverty in the rural
areas of Panay and Negros Islands
To enable participating LGUs and
communities to manage forests and
mangroves sustainably
To improve livelihood of the
participating families
Over half (281,386 ha ) of
the total land area of
Negros Oriental is classified
as forestland
Natural forest covers 28,000
ha (5% of the total land
area of the province)
Plantations cover 17,000 ha
(3% of the total land area
of the province)


LGUs Implementing & Preparing
Forest Land Use Plans (FLUP)
in Negros Oriental
Eleven (11) LGUS have FLUP
and ten (10) are in the
process of preparing
CBFMMP has assisted finalization
of 4 FLUPs in 2010
Goal of the province is to
cover all LGUs with FLUP by
the end of 2014
CBFMMP is now (2012-2014)
further assisting 8 LGUs through
Provincial Forestland Assistance
Team
Negros Oriental is pioneer in Joint Forestland Management and has Institutional
Set up to provide Technical Assistance to all LGUs with forestland areas.
The CBFMMP is assisting DENR and Provincial LGUs to deliver quality technical
assistance
1. The PFAT was created at the regional level (DENR R-7 SO no. 75, 2008)
2. In 2012 the PFAT was enhanced with the participation of the Province and
assistance from CBFMMP-GIZ-EnRD (MoA, EO 08-2012, DENR R-7, PLGU SO 08 2013,
DENR-PLGU Joint Special Order 2013)

Local Policies to Institutionalize Partnership for FLUP technical
assistance:
Signing a MoA in Jan. 12.
2012 created frame for
collaboration between partners

FOCAL PERSONS
Why Barangay Land Management and Allocation
Process?
As the lowest political unit, barangay LGUs play a
crucial role in the enforcement and implementation of
CLUP and other development plans of the
municipality or city.
The barangay land management and allocation
process helps to coordinate forestland management
within the barangay boundaries, while resource
management plans of all tenure holders must be
consistent with the agreed proposed landuse and its
management prescriptions.


The CBFMMP with GIZ EnRD is testing barangay based Resource
Management Planning in the support of Co-Management of forestlands

Good Practices:

1. The networking and partnerships with government partners in Negros
Oriental, other development programmes implemented by NGO and
academe in the province as well as other programmes of GIZ is an initiative that
helps achieved CBFMMProject goals. The networking with GIZ on SCOPE project
and Value Links has started chain of activities that could lead to more viable
options in linking the farmers and POs with buyers and socially responsible
enterprises. Study tours to CENRO Ayungon and SagipSaka project implemented
in La Libertad as well as NESTLE Philippines in Tagum have provided ideas of
improved techniques in forestry and agroforestry practices.
At the same time livelihood component has conducted tours to gather knowledge
and contacts on aquaculture operations in Bohol and private sawmill operators in
Bayawan. Many of these knowledge exchange events can be organised locally
without big cost and extensive preparation.

2. The initial work with Provincial Forest Land Use Assistance Team (PFAT) has
resulted to improved and uniform tools for undertaking FLUP preparation.
The discussions on FLUP assistance have strengthened the relationship with the
province and its departments namely; Environment and Natural Resources
Division (ENRD) and Provincial Planning and Development Office (PPDO
