Areas to Conserve Marine Key Biodiversity Areas in the Philippines” Project

October 2018

The Philippines lies within the Coral Triangle, which has been widely known as the center of marine biodiversity in the world. However, marine resources in the country are under increasing threats from anthropogenic activities (e.g., overfishing, pollution, sedimentation), large-scale disturbances (e.g., storms, exponential rise in global temperature), and the challenges brought about by climate change. Because of this, various stakeholders are doing different management interventions to conserve and protect the marine environment and resources. One of the most common strategies used is the establishment of marine protected areas (MPAs). MPAs, as specified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), are “clearly defined geographical spaces, recognized, dedicated and managed, through legal or other effective means, to achieve the long-term conservation of nature with associated ecosystem services and cultural values” (Dudley, 2008).

The country, despite having more than 1,800 MPAs, has not yet achieved its biodiversity and fisheries objectives due to the mismanagement of its natural resources. One crucial aspect attributed to this is the lack of capacity among the management bodies and their members to perform MPA-related tasks and responsibilities. This highlights the need to ensure that people involved in these MPAs should be effective and competent. Concomitant to these imperatives are systemic concerns that need to be addressed by: (1) removing governance barriers that may hinder progressive development; (2) providing institutional policy reforms; (3) transforming the socioecological systems with enabling conditions; and, (4) providing adequate investment on capacitating protected area managers and practitioners.

Preface

The Competence Assessment Tool was developed as part of the Monitoring and Evaluation of MPAs and MPA Networks (MPANs), particularly in the governance aspect, to capacitate protected area managers and practitioners. Competence translates to the ability of an individual to do a certain task or job. This is the integration of appropriate skills, knowledge, and attitude to successfully perform one’s tasks and functions. The tool has undergone various revisions, pretesting, workshops, and consultations to make it as simple as possible, yet still comprehensive. The competencies are grouped into five main components based on MPA/N-related roles and responsibilities: (1) Planning, (2) Financing, (3) Communications, (4) Enforcement, and (5) Monitoring and Evaluation. These functions are relevant to effectively manage MPAs and MPANs in the Philippines. Moreover, these competencies are classified according to different personnel categories: (1) executives, (2) senior managers, (3) technical specialists, and (4) skilled workers. All competencies are integrated with governance principles for effective management, which involve functionality, transparency, accountability, and participatory decision-making.

The Competence Assessment Tool is not a checklist of requirements to accomplish. Instead, it is a set of building blocks that can guide and open opportunities for better protected area management. The tool is intended to be generally applicable to a wide range of organizational structures and scales albeit its administrative (i.e., psychosocial dimension of MPA management), political, and institutional context needs to be nuanced. The ultimate goal of the tool is to translate these competencies into strategies that would sustain and institutionalize MPA management toward a better future for generations to come.

This Competence Assessment Tool and Guidebook was prepared by the University of the Philippines – Marine Science Institute under the Community Ecology Laboratory (COMECO Lab) through the SMARTSeas PH Project, a UNDP Project in the Philippines implemented by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources – Biodiversity Management Bureau (DENR-BMB) and supported by the Global Environment Facility (GEF).

Introduction

Background and Overview

Competence refers to the ability of an individual to do a certain task. It is a function of appropriate skills,

Various sectors and organizations are now setting up standards for the competencies required to accomplish work-related functions. The need forthe development of competence standards for MPA managers has been highlighted by Gill et al. (2017), who determined that staff and budget capacity were the strongest predictors of conservation impacts. MPAs with adequate staff capacity had ecological effects 2.9 times greater than MPAs with inadequate capacity (Gill et al., 2017). To effectively and equitably manage MPAs, there has to be an appropriate investment on human resources that is not just focused on capacity nor quantity of manpower, but also on the knowledge, skills, and the right working attitude of the MPA managers (Figure 2).

Figure 1. Skills-Knowledge-Attitude model for competency (Appleton, 2016)

knowledge, and attitude to successfully perform work-related duties and activities (Figure 1).

Figure 3 shows the difference between the conventional and competence approaches in training, learning, and assessment. This tool utilizes a competence-based approach, which focuses on the actual ability and performance of an individual based on the behavior rather than the acquisition of knowledge. In this approach, the competence standards help build and strengthen the skills of the individual. Nevertheless, competence and performance still require a good foundation of knowledge (Appleton, 2015). Competence standards can ultimately feed into training needs assessment, which serves as a diagnostic tool that determines what trainings are necessary to help achieve protected area goals and objectives.

Development of the tool

The development of the Competence Assessment Tool followed a rigorous process of reviewing existing literatures, multiple pretesting and consultations, and finalization and packaging (Figure 4) to ensure its simplicity, comprehensiveness, and applicability to a wide range of MPA/N contexts. During the initial phase of the SMARTSeas PH project, baseline information was collected from existing management plans of locally managed MPAs (LM-MPAs), MPANs, and National Integrated Protected Area System (NIPAS) MPAs. These include existing management structure, emerging roles, and responsibilities of different individuals and committees that are part of the management. A literature

review on competence standards was made to gather information on existing concepts, strategies, and tools. In particular, competence standards that incorporate threat reduction, functionality of an effective MPA/N, and human resource competencies were consolidated. Some of the main references used to develop the competence standards were “Competence Standards for Protected Area Jobs in South East Asia” compiled by the ASEAN Regional Centre for Biodiversity Conservation (Appleton et al., 2003) and the “A Global Register of Competencies for Protected Area Practitioners” published by IUCN (Appleton, 2016). After reviewing the different materials available, a suite of competencies critical for the

Figure 4. General process on the development of the Competence Assessment Tool

management of MPAN was identified, including the steps on how to administer assessments and data analyses.

To eliminate unnecessary criteria and incorporate relevant components to the tool, consultation activities such as meetings and workshops were done. Participants of these activities were mostly individuals with direct or indirect involvement in managing MPA/Ns such as MPA/N managers, MPA/N management representatives, local government units (LGUs), nongovernment organizations (NGOs), national government agencies (NGAs) such as the Department of Agriculture’s Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (DA-BFAR), the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), and the experts from different fields of MPA management. Suggestions and comments from the

participants of these activities were documented and integrated to enhance the tool.

The Competence Assessment Tool has undergone several pretesting activities done through focus group discussions (FGDs), interviews (guided self-assessment), and self-assessment in sites with varying management effectiveness level, and management types (i.e., locally managed MPAs, nationally managed MPAs, and network of MPAs). The pretesting further enhanced the tool by streamlining appropriate competencies and criteria––as well as by evaluating how the assessment should be best administered, verifying if the guide questions and facilitator’s guide were appropriate, and validating the proper scoring system to be used.

The Competence Assessment Tool

What is the Competence Assessment Tool?

Competence assessment is an integral part of the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) system for MPAs and MPANs. It facilitates the identification and prioritization of the competencies needed to achieve the objectives of MPA/Ns and ensure effectiveness. An initial part of the M&E system is knowing the status of existing threats in the area, specifically by determining the urgency of the threats and how the management group is capable to address these. Through this assessment, the management group will be able to determine the competencies that they potentially have or lack. The competence assessment complements other existing approaches to determine MPA/N management effectiveness, such as the performance of the MPA management body as a group through the administration of the MPA Management Effectiveness Assessment Tool (MEAT), the Management Effectiveness Tracking Tool (METT), the MPA Network Effectiveness Assessment Tool (NEAT), or assessment of ecological and socioeconomic impacts (e.g., Socioeconomic Assessment Tool or SEAT).

Specifically, the Competence Assessment Tool for MPA/N Managers and Practitioners is an instrument to assess the current level of knowledge, skills and work attitudes of its managers and practitioners. It assists in determining and designing trainings and other capacity building activities through the identification of competencies, or the lack thereof. The tool can also help improve human resource management through the development of detailed job descriptions and proper design of organizational structures, personnel roles and responsibilities, and the professionalization of protected area jobs by setting competence standards.

It is important to note that this tool does not intend to set rules, nor evaluate or rate the performance of the individual MPA/N managers. Instead, it provides guidance to managers in improving their collective capacities to perform the assigned duties and responsibilities in the management group. The fundamental motivation is to help individuals and

organizations adopt the “competence-based approach” as a practical way to build capacity and to improve standards and performance.

At present, the Competence Assessment Tool includes 40 competencies and 236 criteria spread across the five main components based on MPA/N-related roles and responsibilities: (1) Planning, (2) Financing, (3) Communications, (4) Enforcement, and (5) Monitoring and Evaluation. The Planning component focuses on providing a rationale and strategically planned framework and activities for MPA/N governance and management, which always considers a participatory approach to make sure that everyone is involved in the planning process. The Financing component looks into ensuring that the MPA/N is sustainably financed and supported, as well as having an efficient and effective financial management system. The Communications component makes sure that the personnel categories communicate and collaborate effectively. The Enforcement component ensures that laws, regulations and rights concerning MPA/N are effectively upheld and adapted. Lastly, the Monitoring and Evaluation component looks into the essential competencies to monitor and evaluate the governance, socioeconomic and ecological aspect of the MPA/N. The set of competencies and criteria vary among four different personnel categories in MPA/N management: (1) executives, (2) senior managers, (3) technical specialists, and (4) skilled workers as presented in the next section.

Who can use the Competence Assessment Tool?

The tool has been primarily developed for MPA/N managers and practitioners. These are the persons who have direct or indirect involvement in establishing and maintaining the MPA/N. Managers and practitioners are divided into personnel categories based on the roles

Manager - an individual responsible for controlling and administering a certain group

Practitioner - an individual actively engaged in a certain field of profession

12 Competence Assessment Tool: A Guide for Marine Protected Area (MPA) and MPA Network (MPAN) Managers and Practitioners

and responsibilities of the individuals to the MPA/N and not on the job item they have in their respective organizations. Table 1 shows the four personnel categories, their general roles and responsibilities, and sample office and/or designated officials.

In the Philippines, managers of MPAs are usually composed of individuals working for the LGUs. However, the organizational structure or setup varies from place to place. For example, some MPAs might involve people working for the LGUs only, while others may involve people from higher offices, such as from the province or the region. Some MPAs might also involve social groups, such as people’s organizations (POs). Meanwhile, other MPAs, such as MPAs under the NIPAS Act (Republic Act No. 7586) and MPANs, may have different organizational

structures and institutional arrangements. The main advantage of this tool is that it has been designed for different types of MPA management systems. Figures 6-8 show the organizational structures of MPA/N with clear and distinguishable differences in their management.

In Tagum City (Figure 5), the head of the MPA management is the mayor who is jointly working with the city council and external groups, such as the academe, NGOs and other government agencies (GAs). It can be seen in the structure that the mayor has tasked the City Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO) to take the lead in the MPA management. In this type of structure, it can be assumed that the mayor and the city council are the executives working for the MPA––the CENRO is the senior manager, while the technical

specialists and the skilled workers are individuals under the “coastal management unit/MPA in charge.”

Batangas Network has a different structure (Figure 6) since it is a network of coastal LGUs led by the provincial

government. The Batangas Provincial Government – Environment and Natural Resources Office (PG-ENRO) is the focal office that directly implement joint action strategies and/or programs and projects for coastal

resource management as indicated in their strategic environment management plan.

The management structure of Tañon Strait Protected Seascape (TSPS) (Figure 7), a NIPAS MPA, is also very much different from the aforementioned two since it is a very large protected area located in the provinces of Cebu, Negros Oriental, and Negros Occidental. The administration of TSPS is under the management of the Protected Area Management Board, a multi-sectoral and decision-making body headed by the DENR Regional Director, Protected Area Superintendent (PASU) and five assistant PASU with about 320 representatives from component LGUs and stakeholders i.e. city/municipal/barangay LGUs, academe, POs, NGOs and NGAs.

The Competence Assessment Tool is an adaptive management strategy where MPA/N managers and practitioners can learn and improve from the whole assessment process. LGUs, academic institutions, NGAs and NGOs can also use this tool as a guide to determine areas where they could best provide support (i.e., capacity building, training), while enhancing particular competencies that demand further improvement.

How to use the Competence Assessment Tool?

General Process

The approved organizational structure of the MPA/N management body is the basic reference to carry out the

Competence Assessment Tool: A Guide for Marine Protected Area (MPA) and MPA Network (MPAN) Managers and Practitioners 15

competence assessment. Examples of organizational structures are shown in Figures 5-7. This is to identify all the personnel involved in the management of the MPA/N and determine which personnel category they belong to (refer to Table 1). Note that the personnel category of an individual should be based on his/her responsibility to the MPA management and not on the actual job ascribed for office. For example, the Municipal Agriculture Officer (MAO) of the LGU is designated as MPA coordinator. Consequently, that individual should be assessed based on his/her competencies as MPA coordinator and not as MAO. In other areas, however, leaders of social groups who are part of the management’s executive committees may also fulfill additional roles not part of the executive work for the MPA.

The next step is to identify what competencies are relevant to their responsibilities. Note that an individual may have a role in only one component with some overlapping or common roles, tasks, and responsibilities with other components. Meanwhile, others may have roles in multiple components with well-defined responsibilities and leadership functions. A municipal mayor, for instance, could take a role across all components, with varying set of competencies; but a hired MPA guard could only have a specific role in participatory planning and enforcement.

MPA/N managers and practitioners will be assessed individually. The Competence Assessment Tool was designed for both independent self-assessment (an individual will answer the guide questions independently) and guided self-assessment (an individual will be interviewed by a facilitator or guide). The individual to be evaluated should first understand the purpose of the assessment before it is conducted. The facilitator should ensure privacy while administering the assessment¬––whether self or guided self-assessment. During guided self-assessment, the individual should be interviewed alone so that he/she will be able to answer freely without pressure from an audience or his/her colleagues. The facilitator should also ensure that the process of eliciting independent evaluation promotes the credibility of the process. If an individual cannot answer the question, he/she is allowed to leave it blank or indicate “Not Applicable” (N/A) instead of asking answers from someone else. Always take note that this is a personal competence assessment toward MPA/N management; hence, full honesty is encouraged to reflect

Figure 8. Instruction and personal data sheet.

the appropriate competence of an individual.

Ideally, the tool should be conducted every year to regularly monitor the capacity of the MPA/N managers and practitioners. A baseline competence assessment is essential to have a reference point for comparison on the level of improvement of a personnel’s performance over time. It can also be aligned with the schedule of MPA MEAT assessment to monitor both the individual and the management performances.

The Toolkit

The Competence Assessment Tool is composed of: (A) instruction and personal data sheet, (B) self-assessment forms for Categories A, B, C and D, (C) evaluation

16 Competence Assessment Tool: A Guide for Marine Protected Area (MPA) and MPA Network (MPAN) Managers and Practitioners

Figure 9. Sample self-assessment form (top to bottom): knowledge criteria, skills criteria with checklist, and work attitudes criteria

result sheet, and (D) guide to administering the tool and scoring for Categories A, B C and D. These are all part of the toolkit and are presented in the second part of this guidebook. The data sheet and the assessment form are given to the individual to be evaluated. The result sheet contains the summary of the scores obtained in each component with accompanying recommendations. This sheet will be given by the facilitator to the individual after his/her evaluation form has been scored and analyzed. Meanwhile, the guide to administering the tool and scoring should only be seen by the facilitator. The scoring system per criterion is also shown in this section.

Figure 8 shows the instruction and personal data sheet, which is to be filled up by the individual under evaluation. This section provides the facilitator with an idea about the individual’s background. Figure 9 shows a sample assessment form. The first and second images show sample criteria for knowledge and skills, respectively. Each criterion is properly coded based on what component it belongs. The assessment form consists mostly of open-ended questions, but there are some checklists in the monitoring and evaluation component to easily identify training requirements. The last image shows the work attitude criteria, which is to be answered

by rating oneself. The attitude criteria were separated from the knowledge and skills since these are more personal characteristics of an individual. These criteria are also categorized per MPA/N component (color-coded), but a set of general work attitudes cutting across

The summary of the competence assessment results is shown in the evaluation results sheet (Figure 10). At the end of the competence assessment, an individual’s level of competence will be categorized as low, moderate, or high. Each personnel category will have its own results sheet since the total scores vary per personnel. Scores are broken down according to criteria and component to easily visualize which aspect an individual excels at or needs further training and capacity development. Recommendations from the facilitator are also presented here.

The facilitator’s guide in administering the tool is shown in Figure 11. The guide contains all the relevant information needed to help facilitate the conduct of the Competence Assessment Tool. The guide questions are provided with checklists of possible answers and tips on how to ask the questions, especially for guided assessments. The scoring system for each competency is also indicated. Scoring varies per competency depending on the degree of relevance of the criteria. Maximum allowable points are identified, as well.

Competence Assessment Tool: A Guide for Marine Protected Area (MPA) and MPA Network (MPAN) Managers and Practitioners 19

Scoring, Interpretation, and Sample Output

Each personnel category has a scoring system to identify the competence level since the total number of competencies and criteria vary per category. Table 2 shows a sample output for a Category D personnel. Competence level per criteria is based on a rubric, which indicates whether an individual has a low, moderate or high competence level.

The percentage of the actual score to the total available score is derived from the scores of the criteria for each component. An example output is shown below. Table 3 indicates the scores per component and per criterion. One can take a look back at the score sheet to identify

Figure 12. Bar graph showing competence level per criterion

Figure 13. Spider diagram showing competence level per criterion.

20 Competence Assessment Tool: A Guide for Marine Protected Area (MPA) and MPA Network (MPAN) Managers and Practitioners

what specific criteria were not satisfied, and use this information to properly design capacity building activities. Results can also be presented through bar graphs (Figure 12) and spider diagram (Figure 13).

Recommended Training Modules

One of the uses of the Competence Assessment Tool is for the design of training and capacity development. The focus of these trainings and capacity building activities leads to the fulfillment of unsatisfied criteria to improve the individual’s competency level as shown in Table 6. In line with this, the SMARTSeas PH Project recommends the capacity building training modules being developed by the Coastal Assessment for Rehabilitation Enhancement: Capacity Development and Resiliency of EcoSystems (CARE CADRES) Project under the Coastal and Marine Environment Management Program (CMEMP) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. One of the objectives of the project was to develop and/or update existing capacity building training modules on several thematic areas based on the existing materials. Ten out of the twelve modules are deemed relevant training modules for the capacity development related to improving the competence of the MPA/N managers and practitioners.

For the Planning component, the recommended training modules consist of: (A) applying Drivers, Pressures, State, Impacts and Response (DPSIR) Approach in marine ecosystems and (B) strategic planning. These modules focus on using a systematic approach to make the most effective choices about the MPA/N’s objectives and the use of appropriate strategies to achieve them. The strategic development of a management plan is included in these modules.

Communications is also part of the Strategic Planning Module, specifically called the Strategic Communications Planning. This module highlights the importance of communication as a vital process in the effective management of natural resources. Planning, establishing and sustaining MPA/N will be successful if there is effective communications. MPA Financing is part of the main focus of the Sustainable Financing Module and is broadly discussed in the Strategic Planning Module. The Sustainable

Financing Module aims to provide a clear understanding of Sustainable Financing in the context of MPAs. It also discusses financial and business planning, and the appreciation of economic valuation as an input to financing.

Enforcement also has its own module and is explained in the Strategic Planning Module, as well. The Law Enforcement Training Module discusses how to establish the enforcement program, which includes different investigation tools such as enforcement planning, strengthening enforcement, and sustaining enforcement and its institutionalization.

Lastly, for the Monitoring and Evaluation component, there are six relevant training modules: (A) Reconnaissance and Survey Assessment Module, (B) Coastal Integrity and Vulnerability Assessment Module, (C) Mangrove Habitat Module, (D) Seagrass Habitat Module, (E) Coral Reef Habitat Module, and (F) Associated Fish Communities Module. These modules concentrates more on monitoring and assessment of different critical habitats, as well as coastal beach surveys and methods for preliminary research and development.

The aforementioned modules were mostly based on existing materials enumerated below:

Major sources of these materials consist of the following programs and projects:

1. Tropical Marine Ecosystems Management Program (TMEM)

2. Philippine Environmental Governance Project (ECOGOV)

3. Coral Reef Visualization and Assessment Project Year 1 (CORVA-1)

4. Coral Reef Target Research Project (CRTR); and5. Coastal Resource Management Project (CRMP)

• Appreciation of the Basic Concepts of Coastal Methods of Assessment with actual video clips of marine ecosystems and Marine Ecology with focus on Restoration, Rehabilitation and Integrated Coastal Management–for piloting (TMEM; ECOGOV; CORVA-1)

COMPETENCE ASSESSMENT TOOL

PART 2

Competence Assessment Tool: A Guide for Marine Protected Area (MPA) and MPA Network (MPAN) Managers and Practitioners 25

INSTRUCTION AND PERSONAL DATA SHEET

Dear SIR/ MADAM, GREETINGS! You have been requested to answer this questionnaire because you are doing an important job for your Marine Protected Area (MPA)/MPA Network (MPAN). Whether you are new or have been doing it for a long time, you probably know that there are no small tasks when it comes to managing the marine resources since it requires, not only considerable knowledge and skills, but also essential work attitudes that enable you to do your work effectively and efficiently. This Competence Assessment Tool aims to help gauge your current level of knowledge, skills and attitudes in performing your assigned duties and responsibilities for the MPA/N. More importantly, this assessment is being done to help determine and design future trainings and other capacity building activities, and enable you to perform your best in your designated position and contribute to the achievement of the vision, goals and objectives of your MPA/N. Thus, the objective is NOT to evaluate or rate your performance, but rather to determine ways to enhance your knowledge and skills. There is no “passing grade.” You may answer in any language or dialect that you think would best reflect your ideas. Please go over the questions carefully and answer them as honestly as you can. Rest assured that all your answers will be treated with confidence. Thank you very much for your time and patience. Sincerely, FACILITATOR Name:__________________________________________________No.ofYearsinService:_______Office/Designation:_________________________________________________________________NameofMPA/Nbeingmanaged:________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________SpecifictasksrelatedtoMPA/Nmanagement:______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Mywork(100%)canbedividedinto: Planning____%Financing____% Communications____%Enforcement____%MonitoringandEvaluation_____%Educationallevel:___Elementarylevel ___Highschoollevel ___Highschoolgraduate ___Collegelevel___Collegegraduate ___Post-graduateNameoflasttrainingattended:________________________________________________________Whenwasitconducted:_______________________________Dateaccomplished:____________________________________________________Facilitator’sName(ifapplicable):_________________________________________
