QUARTERLY PERFORMANCE REPORT Governance and Local Democracy (GOLD) Project

Contractor: Contract Number: Reporting Period:

ARD, Inc. 492-0471-C-00-5089-00 July 1 - September 30, 2000

SECTION I - CONTRACTOR'S REPORT 1. Background

The Governance and Local Democracy (GOLD) Project is designed to support improved systems of local governance emanating from a dynamic relationship between the governmental and nongovernmental sectors. The project's demand-driven and assisted self-reliance modes of operation, coupled with its dual emphasis on improved local government performance and popular participation in public affairs, represents the state-of-the-art in promoting democratic local governance systems.

The Project produces a Quarterly Progress Report that contains contractual information and a brief overview of progress. As a management tool, this document examines project issues and concerns and includes suggestions for courses of action. Over time, these reports provide interested parties with a quick understanding of the project's achievements at the field level.

2. Expected Results

The expected results, or performance objectives, are drawn from the contract' and are met by responding to partner local government- and civil society-demands through a strategy of "assisted self-reliance." On 29 June 1999, USAID and ARD, Inc. signed an amendment to the initial contract. The intent of this amendment was for the project to remain within the basic parameters of the project. The significant difference is that the project is to rapidly enable a significant number of new LGUs to take advantage of the lessons learned during the first phase of the project, the new PACD has been set as 31 March 1999.

Throughout the course of this quarter ARD continued working on the modified contract requirements to achieve a rapid rollout of GOLD lessons learned during the extension period. The expected results of the GOLD Project are articulated as:

• Local government units (LGUs) will achieve substantially more effective governance with broad participation. "Effective local governance" is defined for the GOLD Project's performance criteria as:

• Strengthened participatory mechanisms that provide effective coordination and communication among local government officials and the non-governmental sector including local NGOs, POs, c00~erat~ves, prcfeS2ic!ls! org?_nizaticris, busine'ss associa+:ons, 2t:. Cltiz3ns :1iu3~ ~~; able tc participate in and influence governance, and local governments must be able to mobilize public participation when required.

• Local governments must be more responsive in the three priority action areas of the GOLD project-Resource Mobilization and Management, Development Investment Prioritization and

Promotion and Environmental Planning and Management-in accordance with the 1991 Local Government Code.

• An effective communications system will be established that includes: the sharing of information among local governments, policy studies to probe critical issues confronting local governments and to inform decision makers, promotion of more effective media coverage of local government issues and the actions of local governments, and periodic Rapid Field Appraisals (RFAs) to monitor the implementation of the Local Government Code.

3a. GOLD's Core Activities

GOLD's technical assistance enables local governments to better take advantage of the resources and authorities provided in the 1991 Local Government Code. Specifically, GOLD's core activities focus on providing the following outputs towards achieving the project's performance objectives.

Objective of the Services A Local Government Unit (LGU) Support Services Team is being contracted under the Governance and Local Democracy (GOLD) Project to provide assistance to selected local governments and communities to achieve effective systems of local governance, attain selfreliance and be active partners of the national government in the pursuit of the country's development agenda. The Team will also be responsible for policy studies and a variety of information collection and dissemination activities. The objectives will include:

1. Help achieve decentralization objectives through the development of participative, competent, responsive, accountable, and self-reliant local governments

2. Assist local governments to strengthen their financial positions 3. Help LGUs identify and achieve replicable development and service delivery performance

benchmarks 4. Increase private sector investment and participation 5. Assist LGUs with environmental management systems 6. Help institutionalize a system of communication, replication, and information sharing 7. Support the formulation and implementation of policy reforms

Each of these objectives has been the focus of concerted effort on the part of the team during the proceeding four years. The activities carried out in this quarter designed to ensure sustainable achievement of each of these objectives are described below.

3b. Current Buy-ins

There are no buy-ins to the contract.

3c. Subcontractor Activity

Six subcontractors were included in the original contract proposal and approved by the USAID/Philippines Mission. . . 1. Orient Integrated Development Consultants, Inc. (OIDCI) is a Filipino owned and operated

consulting firm and ARD's principal local subcontractor. OIDCI's core expertise includes integrated area and regional based development, institutional and local-level development, and environmental resource management. OIDCI currently provide technical area specialists (forest management, solid waste, tree crops, tree enterprise, land use planning, urban environmentalism, natural resource management, and legal) that operate in all LGUs covered by the GOLD project.

policy and programs, public finance and management, and geographic information systems (GIS). PADCO has provided specific technical consulting assistance related to local finance to the GOLD project. Current involvement is limited to one local consultant on GIS.

4. Performance in Meeting Project Targets

Targets set forth for the third quarter of the Sixth Annual Work Plan were generally accomplished.2

The primary activities of the quarter centered on continuing the implementation of the LGUs activities initiated during the previous quarter. This quarter saw continued progress in most LGUs. In September, however, there were cutbacks in the level of support to some LGUs due primarily to the effects of the earlier USAID budget cut. However, the project continued to assist more LGUs than were targeted in the 6th Annual Plan due to the wide range of rollout strategies employed. There is also strong evidence that LGUs appreciate the assistance enough to hire former GOLD consultants directly after their ARD contracts have expired. LGUs have continued to commit more than 200% of the total cost of GOLD rollout activities. Environment and MIS programs have recorded the greatest level of LG U cost sharing support.

Our Performance Measurement activities moved ahead apace during the quarter. Both the 101h RFA and the final quantitative indicators surveys were completed during the quarter. Both reports will be completed by mid-4th Quarter.

Our institutionalizaton eiforts gained considerable ground during the quarter. The Civil Service Commission has indicated its readiness to take full ownership of PSEP in October. GOLD completed its Orientation on Alternative Financing Modes for NEDA. The Bureau of Local Government Finance completed training in TOP1 and the Barangay and Teacher's RPT orientation workshops. The Liga ng mga Barangay received support for the implementation of several regional workshops and trainings for Barangay officials. The LGU Information Systems Plan manual was completed and handed over to the NCC. GOLD completed its assistance support to the Local Government Academy.

Our most intense institutionalization work remains the development of our network of the Centers for Local Governance. These six institutions have all formally created separate units within the larger institutions to support local governance training, study, and facilitation. The six CLGs have now increased to eight with the addition of CREMDEC (Cebu) and MSU/Marawi under the tutelage of Ateneo de Davao and MSU/liligan respectively.

Documentation of the GOLD processes will be the focus of the coming quarter. Most project activities will be ended by December 2000 with all programs completing a final report and supporting activity documentation.

The following tables contained details for each of its objective program areas. Table 1 provides an overview of accomplishments and constraints in each program areas. Table 2 explicitly compares planned and actual performance during the July to September 2000 interval. Table 3 details the documents produced with project resources during the quarter. Table 4 lists all workshops held. Table 5 identifies some of the critical upcoming events for the third quarter. Table 6 identifies pOints of synergy between the GOLD and USAID and other donor project working on issues related to local governance.

Objective One SERVICE OUALITY IMPROVEMENT (SOl) PROGRAM

Major Trends The third quarter saw the full-blown implementation of the PSEP in all of the 22 LGU sites, with 6 more LGUs finally starting their respective PSEP workshops in July and August.

A good number of LGUs have already submitted the workshop outputs of the PSEP components they have completed thus far all of which shall be made part of the documentation proceedings at the end of the GOLD Project.

Again, the enthusiasm of all Local Chief Executives and the LGU-beneficiaries was evident in the telephone calls made to the SOl Team, as well as the endorsement letters accompanying the workshop outputs. However, the pulling out of the GOLD PSEP Trainers later in the third quarter sent some mild shocks to the LGUs primarily because the withdrawal of GOLD assistance will mean spending the LGUs own resources and also because they must already have felt so comfortable with the presence of the GOLD Trainers. With some carefully-worded explanations in writing, the LGUs realized the constraints of the GOLD Project and were able to go on with the PSEP with the use of the ARD/GOLD-trained LGU Trainers. A few LGUs hired the services

I of the GOLD PSEP Trainers who conducted the first two PSEP components for them.

Gaps and Bottlenecks

Strengths and Advantages

• The presence of ARD/GOLD-trained LGU Trainers who took over the reins in the different LGU PSEP sites after the decision to pull out all GOLD consultants from the field. Without these trainers, PSEP would have had difficulty in cutting down field operations and its accompanying cost.

• The continuing support of ARD Management to the SOl Team despite the current financial and time constraints.

• The cooperation and enthusiasm of the LGUs in submitting PSEP workshop outputs making it easy for the SOl Team to monitor the progress of implementation of PSEP in the different sites.

.• The enthusiasm of CSC Management in the institutionalization of the PSEP through the tum-over of the Program from ARD to esc.

Program Objective • Support selected GOLD extension sites that demonstrate strong initiative in building their instttutional and

technical capabilities to develop, install, implement and maintain their own computer-based management information systems as support to the goal of putting in place an efficient, effective, and transparent processes and operations.

Critical Program Success Indicators • Trained each new GOLD Extension site on Information System Planning. • In-house MIS staff in each of these new GOLD extension sites organized and trained to implement the

LGU's MIS program. • The needed computer hardware and software procured by Partner sites. • Developed computer-based systems - such as the Personnel Management Information System (PMIS),

Real Property Tax Information System (RPTIS), and/or Fund Management Information System (FMIS) -installed for implementation in those sites that have expressed willingness to adopt one of them.

• Links between the new sites and Bulacan and Negros Oriental forged for the former's access to PMIS or RPTIS, or FMIS, respectively.

• Trained each new GOLD Extension site on Information System Planning the GOLD GIS sites in the process of developing GIS application.

• Provide supplemental technical training on GIS operation. • Provided technical training on organizational issues.

Major Trends • Growing appreciation, awareness or interest by LGU management and personnel of computerization for

efficient government operations. •• Increasing realization among LGUs of the need to form full-time MIS units and build the technical capability

of the LGU organization on computer operations. • Growing LGU awareness of what computerization entails in terms of budget, time and effort. • Willingness of LGU leadership to invest on their computerization initiatives, especially in terms of hardware

and software acquisition, but on a staggered basis. • More software vendors are approaching Local Government Units, many of them Canadian. Received

communications and materials from people selling GeoMax and Geomatica.

i Gaps and Bottlenecks !. Inertia in some LGU sites on data build-up

requirements has delayed testing and debugging of adopted systems.

• Slow hardware procurement process in Capiz has greatly delayed RPTIS adoption.

• Hardware procurement was still a problem in all sites, even when political support was strengthened (as in the case of Nueva Vizcaya). Maybe future USAID assistance can focus on the cumbersome bureaucratic processes involved in LGU procurement procedures.

• The province of Nueva Vizcaya, Albay and Bulacan Production Teams problems, issues and concern were not adequately addressed by the Management Groups.

• Capiz and Bohol - 15 participatory barangay planning-budgeting workshops using the new workshop design, integrating MBN data presented through maps and charts into the process. Same design has been shared with Bohol PPDO staff, and used in their own workshop in Barangay Tanday, Municipality of Corella.

• Bulacan - 2 meetings were held to discuss request for evaluation of RPTIS-GIS linkage. Results of these meetings went into formulation of proposed PAR for Bulacan GIS.

• Butuan City/CARAGA - two workshops completed, one for inventory of GIS components, overviewbf the Application Development Process, and another for strategic planning and review of some spatial operations.

• Naga City and Albay - City and Provincial Staff have worked together to produce GIS data sets, as well as Requirements Documents for some needed software customization. Additional assistance was given to Naga City on Visual Basic and Avenue programming. Progress monitoring meetings were held in both LGUs.

• This produced a) proposed Organizational Structure, Position Titles, and Qualification Standards for GIS facilities; and b) an Association of GIS Practitioners. GIS staff from Capiz, Albay, Cebu, Bulacan, and Nueva Vizcaya participated in these workshops.

• Cavite City staff underwent three sets of technical training sessions in Cebu City, as part of the Deployment phase of their own G IS applications.

• In the first week of September, project assessment sessions were held in Naga City and Capiz, in anticipation of early closure of the GOLD project.

Objective Three PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

Major Trends: (Based on the recently concluded 10" RFA where the theme was to find out the impact of decentralization at the community level)

In Local Development Planning and Implementation • With limited available resources, immediate concerns are addressed with tangible results and citizen

participation • There is faster allocation of resources within the LGUs control • Influence of external factors lead to broader development projects • Stronger participation resulting to sustained implementation of barangay programs and projects • There is enhanced transparency in local governance

In Local Legislation and Enforcement • External factors such as influence of national government agencies, donor agencies, civil, society are

effective catalysts in the enactment of relevant legislation that address social development issues, concerns and priorities.

• Barangay legislation mostly address the most basic needs

In Resource Generation and Allocation • There is preference for infrastructure in the allocation of the 20% Development Fund • There are available external resources for projects in the barangays that help augment its resources • Barangays which explore other fund sources are able to implement other priority projects • Some barangays try to exercise taxing powers which leads to increase in tax consciousness

In Service Delivery • Improvements in service delivery felt at the barangay level is due to efforts of NGAs and higher level LGUs • Improvement in service delivery is due to efforts of barangay themselves. • In effect, there resulted higher public feeling of the presence of government and GO-NGOIPO collaboration

in service delivery • Due attention is given to neglected and marginalized sectors such as women, the elderly and children

Gaps and Bottlenecks

Constraints in institutionalizing the RFA at Ateneo School of Government.

The significance of applying the ToP in drawing a , synthesis from the provincial reports needs to be , deeply appreciated and understood by the Ateneo

School of Government (SoG). It is crucial for SoG to understand that it is precisely in the application of ToP methods that makes the RFA a unique data gathering method. It is through the use of ToP techniques that consultants are able to pull-out a synthesized picture of the nation as a whole from the disparate provincial or regional reports.

! While recommendations drawn from the findings of I the 1 at" RFA were validated and enhanced at the

public presentation, it is unsure if the findings of the 1 at" RFA on the impact of decentralization at the grassroots level will make a dent (if any at all), on policy making and policy makers because of

, lackluster attendance in the Public Presentation.

Strengths and Advantages

• Despite initial shock experienced by Ateneo School of Government in running the entire RFA (technical and administrative) for the first time, the School is still willing to run another RFA (although probably and most likely tailored to suit SoG's academic orientation)

• Centers for Local Governance where most of the RFA consultants are based do have the capability to continue RFA tradition in their respective jurisdictions. In fact, they have greater advantage since most of the CLGs were also trained quantitative data gathering methods as well.

Obiective Four INVESTMENT PRIORITIZATION AND PROMOTION

Trends

• Increasing interest in alternative financing modes as follow through to project development activity. To date seven of the LGUs assisted in project development (Cagwait, Agusan Norte, Camiguin, Misamis Oriental, Polangui, Sta Teresita, Alfonso Lista, Rizal) have expressed keen interest in BOT and issuance of bonds. The NEDA Regional offices have been actively promoting the three alternative financing modes that were subject of an orientation seminar in Manila recently.

• Increased interest in project development. NEDA Regions IV and XIII (Caraga) reported upsurge of requests from LGUs for assistance in project development.

• Increasing interest of funding institutions and programs in fast tract project development training techniques. Those interested include the CBRM, LGA, LOGOFIND and ADB-PDF.

• Five new (Aklan, Leyte, Iloilo, Negros Oriental and Surigao Norte) requests for assistance in eco-tourism suggest that this area of concern may need more serious attention

• High interest rates is making privatization a better mode of financing local projects.

• Reduced GOLD budget, thereby limiting the range tested in three project sites. of assistance during the last few months.

Recent Accomplishments • Completion of seven (7) Program Activities (PAR) during the quarter. These are: Tiwi Investment

Promotion, Davao del Sur Investment Promotion, Naga City Investment Board, Ateneo de Manila Course in Project Development, Strengthening of NEDA Region X PDAC, Strengthening of NEDA Caraga PDAC, Polangui Waterworks Project Development.

• Assistance to the Bohol privatization effort resulting in the turn-over of water and power utilities faciltties to the joint venture

• Measurable impact of effort to advocate alternative financing modes. The effort which covered only the month of August, resulted in two firm commitments to use an alternative financing mode (one BOT and one bond float) for project implementation and five expressions of interest to do so. Successful tum-over of planning workshop design for the NEDA Region IV's Countryside Program for Children Phase V. The design has been adopted in NEDA Region XIII and the Department of Social Welfare and Developmenfs region IV office. The latter's field staff have been trained in ToP and the use of the said planning design.

• Generated the interest of at least two institution's programs, in the GOLD project development process. These programs are the LOGOFIND under the Municipal Development Fund Office of the Department of Finance and the Asian Development Bank's Capacity Building in Local Government Unit Financing Program. In addition, Director of NEDA's Regional Development Coordination Staff verbally requested that the process be introduced in all the other NEDA regional offices.

• Successful completion of the Orientation on Alternative Financing Modes for LGUs which was held in Manila for NEDA Regionai Offices and NEDA National Staff. The learnings and documented outputs of the orientation workshop were immediately used or disseminated in two events organized by the participating NEDA regional offices.

• Successful launching of the joint NEDA Regions X and XIII Investment Forum. The forum was attended by major financing institutions and networks. At least ten LGUs with completed project studies participated in the event.

Objective Five ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

Major Trends • The DENR does not have yet a discrete Technical Assistance Program for LGUs. As a result, selected

local DENR officers have on their own initiative entered into partnership with their LGUs to start new programs. The sustainability of these personalized initiatives are always under threat due to frequent personnel rottions.

• Manila-based NGOs and the National Flagship Program continues to forge a win-win agreement combining "zero waste" approaches with sanitary landfills. This could serve as model for other Local Government who must deal with polarized views on how to approach the problem.

• Local Governments are increasing their investment in training as partly evidenced in the continued high registration rates to self-paying seminars and sharing sessions sponsored by the Philippine Wastershed Coalition or the Solid Waste Management of the Philippines.

• Several of GOLD-assisted LG Us have become new sites for educational tours by both GOLD and nonGOLD LGUs.

Gaps and Bottlenecks Stren!~ths and Advantages

• The Peace and Order situation in Mindanao has • The multi-sectoral participation of the academe, NGOs, NGAs, and LGUs in the selected environmental projects have enabled the LGUs to carry-out the agreed activities even with limited budgets.

prevented timely implementation of agreed upon activities in most Mindanao sites. A good number of these LGUs have nonetheless worked out ways to take advantage of the remaining months of GOLD Technical Assistance.

• '. In each cluster, some constituent LGUs are unable to sustain their interest and investment. They are usually those whose LCEs have not proactively participated in submitting proposals to GOLD. As a result these LGUs have no clear budgets and attendance to sessions is inconsistent.

• The level of program stages (from zero to advanced programs already in place) of each municipality in a cluster differs. This creates some dissatisfaction among those municipalities in a cluster that have achieved comparatively advanced levels of competence.

I!li!!I!l ~ UNITED STATES AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT

'ftYiiI

• Willingness of the LGUsin the cluster to co:host activities and pay a registration fee to subsidize their meals and accommodation.

• The leadership support (either financial and! or technical) being provided by several Provincial Governments have encouraged many municipalities to be more aggressive in pursuing their environmental projects.

• The environment Team has earned credibility among most GOLD assisted LGUs. An increasing number of LGUs have begun active negotiations for availing their services aftrer GOLD.

• The financial and technical commitments made by the Provincial Government to assist the municipalities proved to be very useful especially in the launching of the various environmental programs.

• Some LGUs within each cluster are demonstrating outstanding leadership. They are able to apply immediately doable improved practices that serve as model for the cluster.


:r Quarter 2000 Performance Report 19

Ob'ective Five ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT


• As of 30 September 2000, the GOLD Environment Team is providing technical assistance to 41 inter-LGU clusters involving approximately 180 LGUs from various parts of the country in implementing their chosen environmental projects. Of this number, 10 are original GOLD sites and 31 are new inter-LGU clusters. A cluster is a group of LGUs who have agreed to jointly avail of training and technical services from GOLD. It usually consists of the Provincial Government and between three to five constituent municipalities.

• Twelve (12) inter-LGU clusters have completed all their agreed key activities including Resource Management Appraisal, Review of Management Options, Consensus Building, Strategic Action Planning, Policy and IEC modules. The rest of the clusters continue to undertake the final agreed upon tasks which usually revolve around program preparation, policy formulation, IEC and skills training.

• The GOLD Environment Team also provided short term training to selected LGUs like Zamboanga del Sur for their Coastal Resources Management and Watershed Management; Municipality of Abra de lIog, Mindoro Occidental for their Watershed Management; and Davao del Sur for their Watershed Management program.

• The GOLD Project, together with the US-AEP, assisted the Solid Waste Management Association of the Philippine (SWAPP) in the conduct of two training events for LGUs entitled: Training Course on Preparing and Mobilizing an Effective Solid Waste Management Program. GOLD provided the key trainors. The dates and venues were: July 24-28 (Traders Hotel, Manila) and August 28-September 1 (Cebu Midtown, Cebu City). GOLD and US-AEP are also assisting SWAPP in this event. Preparation am now unde~:;ay for a national sharing conference called SW APPCON 2000 to be held in November 22-24.

• The GOLD Environment Team assisted Coalition in the design and facilitation of two training courses entitled: Information, Education and Communication (lEG) Training in July 12-14 at Cebu City and Localized Watershed Management Program in August 8-10 at Davao City. GOLD provided the key trainors and resource persons.

• The Philippine Watershed Management Coalition (PWMC) and Solid Waste Management Association of the Philippines (SWAPP) with the Environment Team developed a project development strategy to obtain external support to sustain the technical services that they can provide to LGUs.

• Together with the Development Investment and Promotions (DIPP), the Environment Team provided technical assistance to the Local Government Academy and the Project office of the Community Based Resources Management project in Developing customized workshop design for project development that CBRM assisted LGUs can use as guidance.

• Selected GOLD Environment Team members assisted Bohol prepare the scope and action programs for the drafting of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of Bohol Environment Code particularly for forest and coastal resources management.
