INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH FORUM on Local Governance and Accountability in

Environmental Protection, Disaster Risk Reduction Management,

and Sustainable Development Rationale:

Our chances to develop and progress have been compromised by environmental degradation and climate

change- related disasters. There is a pressing need to pool efforts and expertise together in order to maximize

economic gains from our resources while taking into account the needs of the future generation. The future of

our economies lies in the collective pursuit of a vision- that of providing our community a chance to feel and

enjoy the good life that should go with development and progress without compromising the same good life for

the future generations.

The current popular approach is decentralization. This brings into the fore the crucial role of local

governance where decision-making is at the local level. The responsibility of economic development for the

global community is acted upon locally. It is democracy at work. It is credibility at their best.

But there is a gap between what is and what should be.

Objectives:

Discover participatory mechanisms and civil society interventions for environmental DRRM and

sustainable development

Share best practices on transparency and accountability in the local management of wastes, DRRM,

and sustainable development

Present what have been achieved so far by local efforts to address local garbage problems

Share experiences, knowledge and information on disaster risk reduction management systems as

practiced in some communities

Present concepts and ideas on the role of local governance and accountability in sustainable

development through environmental protection and DRRM

Present the role of the academe in the pursuit of quality of life through local governance and

accountability, environmental protection and disaster risk reduction management.

Symposium Subthemes:

LGUs and the local garbage problems: challenges and solutions. Status of implementation of the solid waste

management by the LGUs, problems of implementation, efforts/impacts of garbage problems, entrepreneurship and

economic potentials, indigenous solutions, market waste management systems, MRFs at the barangay level, incentivizing

solutions.

Surviving disasters. Indigenous knowledge systems, skills and initiatives of people to survive the disasters, CSO/LGU

abilities and capabilities to assist in survival- before, during and after the occurrence of disasters.

Disaster risk reduction management of agricultural crops and forest resources. Plant defoliation as a risk reduction

technique, SALT, varietal trials in typhoon- prone areas, plant/animal adaptation to disaster-prone areas, multicropping/

staggered planting calendar as a mitigating factor, sloping agricultural land technology for landslide prone areas.

Academe-LGU partnership in governance and accountability. Impact of development on research policies in the

academe, funding support to academe research endeavors towards local governance and accountability, status of research in

HEI on local governance and accountability, development of governance and accountability tools.

The sustainability of development in disaster-prone areas. Development strategies in urban, sub-urban and rural

communities, impact of disasters on development efforts, coping mechanisms or marginalized communities, migrants’

social responsibility through diastrophic philanthropy.

Gendered dimensions of environmental protection and disaster risk reduction management. Gender and

development, family management in evacuation centers, women pre-post disaster risk reduction management, agro-forestry

adaptation to climate change-related risk.

Participants:

Faculty-researchers/professors of State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) and Private Schools, LGU officials,

NGOs, researchers on Local Governance, Sustainable Development, and Climate Change–Related Risks and

Disaster Management.
