Progress Report
As of 31 March 2015
In line with the goal of enabling communities affected by and vulnerable to armed conflict to return
to peaceful conditions where they can achieve their desired quality of life, the Government is
adopting a two-pronged approach: (1) Track 1, which aims to achieve negotiated political settlement
of all internal armed conflicts, and, (2) Track 2, the Complementary Track, which seeks to address the
causes and impacts of all internal armed conflicts and other issues that affect the peace process
through security, justice and development interventions focused on conflict-affected and conflict-vulnerable areas. The Complementary Track is primarily pursued through the PAyapa at
MAsaganang PamanayaNAn (PAMANA) which is the national government’s convergence framework
and program for peacebuilding and development in areas affected by and vulnerable to conflict.
PAMANA, as embodied in the Philippine Development Plan 2011-2016, was launched in 2011.
PAMANA aims to achieve the following objectives: (1) Improve socio-economic conditions in areas
affected by and vulnerable to armed conflict through infrastructure development and focused
delivery of goods and services; (2) Improve governance by enhancing institutional capacities of
national government agencies and local government units to pursue peace and development in
conflict-affected and conflict-vulnerable areas through capacitation on conflict-sensitive and peace-
promoting approaches and enhancement of transparency and accountability mechanisms; and, (3)Empower communities and strengthen their capacities to address issues of conflict and peace through
activities that promote social cohesion.
PAMANA as a Complementary Track
PAMANA complements the different peace tables:
GPH-Moro Islamic Liberation Front MILF). PAMANA, although is not implemented in direct
support to the MILF peace process, seeks to contribute to this particular peace table by building the
capacities of local governments in Bangsamoro areas to deliver development programs and basic
services.
GPH-Moro National Liberation Front MNLF). PAMANA was undertaken as a separate initiative of
the Aquino Administration to assist communities with MNLF presence. These communities continue
to experience underdevelopment even after the implementation of the development component of
the 1996 Final Peace Agreement between the Government and the MNLF. Priority was given to

Peace and Development Communities or PDCs (transformed MNLF guerilla bases and positions)
which have a higher level of social preparedness.
GPH-Communist Party of the Philippines/New People’s Army/National Democratic Front
CPP/NPA/NDF). PAMANA in CPP-NPA-NDF (CNN) affected areas are meant to ensure that
communities benefit from peace dividends despite the stalled Peace Talks. PAMANA Projects bringdevelopment interventions that aim to improve the quality of life of communities, as well as
improvement in governance to ensure that local government units (LGU) pay attention to conflict
triggers and strengthen peace promoting interventions.
GPH-Cordillera Bodong Administration/Cordillera People’s Liberation Army CBA/CPLA).
PAMANA contributed to the transformation process of the CPLA from an armed group to an
unarmed socio-economic entity, the Cordillera Forum for Peace and Development (CFPD) through
socio-economic development interventions. On the ground, the transformation is represented by
people’s organizations/livelihood associations of former CPLA members. These organizations are also
open to the participation and membership of non-CPLA members within their communities.
PAMANA highlighted the government’s dedication to fulfill its commitments in line with the 2011
Closure Agreement with the CBA-CPLA.
GPH- Rebolusyonaryong Partidong Manggagawang Pilipinas/Revolutionary Proletarian Army/Alex
Boncayao Brigade-Tabara Paduano Group RPM-P/RPA/ABB-TPG). PAMANA will support
implementation and completion of the Closure Agreement with the RPM-P/RPA/ABB-TPG and
assist in the institutional transformation of this group into an unarmed political and socio-economic
organization that promotes the welfare of members and host communities.
PAMANA Program Accomplishments
The following are the program accomplishments of PAMANA as of 31 March 2015, based on status
reports submitted by PAMANA implementing agencies:

As of 31 March 2015, the DILG Bureaus have pursued the following initiatives under Pillar 1.
1. Bureau of Local Government Development (BLGD) on mainstreaming conflict-sensitivity, child-
friendliness and gender-responsiveness in local development planning
Spearheaded and facilitated the first DILG PAMANA Program Coordination Meeting to
harmonize and align the implementation of PAMANA Program components across Bureaus
(BLGD, BLGS, NBOO, OPDS and LGA) within DILG; and,
Consultations and discussions on the DILG PAMANA overall framework and program were
addressed as part of the second DILG PAMANA Program Coordination Meeting with
OPAPP. OPAPP assistance for the overall DILG PAMANA Program was also clarified.
2. Bureau of Local Government Supervision (BLGS) on training on peace and order and public safety
plan
Prepared draft Memorandum Circulars which will serve as the Guidelines on the Functions of
Peace and Order Councils (POCs) and POC Secretariats and Guidelines on the Content of

Peace and Order and Public Safety (POPS) Plans, together with the Technical Guide Notes on
Tools and Approaches on POPS Planning.
3. National Barangay Operations Office (NBOO) on capacity-building for LGUs to ensure
functionality of Lupon and Barangay Human Rights Action Center
For the RMP-P/RPA/ABB Tabara-Paduano Group (TPG), the coverage for planning under
BLGD and BLGS will target TPG settlement and production sites, while alternative dispute
resolution interventions will target areas experiencing tension between TPG and other
community members. The timing of Pillar 1 implementation is thus critical;
For areas in CAR, it was proposed to include non-CPLA/CFPD areas with the aim of
sustaining peace gains and strengthening alternative resolution mechanisms; and,
OPAPP prioritized WNI areas and considered other CNN-affected/vulnerable areas to sustain
peacebuilding gains. Efforts to support the political track are also considered.
The Local Government Academy (LGA) takes on initiatives related to establishing mediation and
healing mechanisms.
Support to Indigenous Peoples
A.
NCIP
The NCIP supports initiatives aimed towards addressing the marginal and vulnerable status of
indigenous peoples in identified provinces, as follows:
1.
Activities towards the issuance of Certificated of Ancestral Domain Titles (CADTs); and,2.
Formulation/enhancement of Ancestral Domain Sustainable Development and Protection
Plan (ADSDPP).
As of 31 March 2015, implementation of activities towards issuance of Certificate of Ancestral
Domain Titles (CADT) and formulation and/or enhancement of the Ancestral Domain Sustainable
Development and Protection Plans (ADSDPP) are ongoing in Regions IV, XI and XIII.
Under the support for CADT processing, the NCIP has conducted (1) preliminary survey research,
survey notification, reconnaissance or mission planning, fabrication, installation and observation of
monuments for the Dumagat ICC in Real (Barangays Tignoan, Mapalad, Lubayat, Pandan and
Tanauan) and Mauban (Barangay Cagsiay III), Quezon; (2) data gathering for the social preparation
activity report preparation for the Mamanwa Tribe in Dinarawan, San Pablo, Agusan del Norte; (3)
validation on delineation activities for the Manobo Tribe in Lianga, San Agustin and Marihatag,
Surigao del Sur; and, (4) continuation of perimeter survey and data processing for Region XI. Due to
difficulty in penetrating communities brought about by the presence of armed groups, however,
project activities in Surigao del Sur were held up. Thus, only three (3) out of the seven (7)
communities have submitted data requirements for the validation.

Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process | 7
Under the support for ADSDPP preparation and enhancement, the NCIP has (1) conducted
preliminary activities, social mobilization, data gathering and assessment for Region IV and (2)
commenced technical review and final packaging of the ADSDPP books for Region XI.
CADT processing support for the Banwaon Tribe in San Luis (Barangays Mahagsay, Sta. Rita, SanPedro, Nuevo Trabajo and Coalicion), Agusan del Sur was put on hold. The communities have yet to
appoint a new Ancestral Domain representative with the demise of their incumbent representative.
There was also a need to take into account the peace and order situation in the area in light of the
presence of an armed group who strongly oppose the project.
Pillar 2: Establishing Resilient Communities
Pillar 2 refers to community-driven development interventions aimed towards promoting the
convergent delivery of services and goods focused on households and communities. Community-
based interventions through development of cooperatives are also being provided for MNLF
communities. Provision of shelter assistance for internally-displaced persons is also being undertaken
under this Pillar.
Pillar 2 is being implemented by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD)
through the Kapit-Bisig Laban sa Kahirapan-Comprehensive Integrated Delivery of Social Services
(KALAHI-CIDSS) - PAMANA, Local Government Unit (LGU)-Led Mechanism under the DSWD
Protective Services Bureau and Sustainable Livelihood Program (SLP); the Department of Agrarian
Reform (DAR) through the PAMANA in Agrarian Reform Areas (ARA); and the DSWD-
Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).
Community-Driven Development CDD) Projects
1
Within this approach, the PAMANA Peace and Development Fund, which is a block grant of
PhP300,000 per barangay, is provided to targeted barangays every year for a period of three (3) years.
Target barangays are assisted in undertaking conflict-sensitive planning, identification,
implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of community projects.
Projects supported through the CDD approach include livelihood projects, community
infrastructures, agricultural production support, farm-to-market roads, pathways, water systems,
electrification, capacity-building initiatives, peacebuilding and peace and order activities.

It is important to note that CDD projects are designed to have social preparation and project
identification activities during the first half of the year whereas implementation is usually
undertaken during the second half of the year.
PAMANA for Moro National Liberation Front Communities
The PAMANA for MNLF Communities focuses on the provision of socio-economic and development
interventions for MNLF communities. A total of 180 communities were identified and validated by
the military as MNLF communities and have been applied as PAMANA beneficiaries under the
ARMM-ORG.
For CY 2014, the DSWD-ARMM was tasked to implement Cycle 3 of Pillar 2 interventions to 386
barangays in ARMM by providing livelihood projects, DPWH-ARMM to implement a total of 34
Roads to Peace Projects, and ORG-ARMM to implement socio-economic development projects in the
56 pre-identified MNLF communities.
As of 31 March 2015, physical accomplishments of the DSWD-ARMM and DPWH-ARMM for CY
2014 are pegged at 50% and 24.46%, respectively. ORG-ARMM, on the other hand, has delivered
initial project items to four (4) barangays in Maguindanao, five (5) barangays in Lanao del Sur, 18
barangays in Basilan, one (1) barangay in Sulu and two (2) barangays in Tawi-Tawi.
Under the PAMANA ARMM-ORG Program for CY 2014, a total of 157 MNLF cooperatives were
registered out of the 180 MNLF communities enrolled in Maguindanao (35), Lanao del Sur (41),
Basilan (28), Sulu (52) and Tawi-Tawi (24).
In September 2014, the PAMANA-ARMM PMO and heads of partner implementing agencies (e.g.,
CDA-ARMM, DPWH-ARMM, BFAR-ARMM, DAF-ARMM, DAF-PAO Basilan) signed a

Pillar 3: Promoting Sub-Regional Economic Development
Pillar 3 projects refer to regional and sub-regional development interventions that link conflict-
affected and conflict-vulnerable areas to markets and promote jobs and livelihood generation. These
specifically refer to interventions that address local development challenges including constraints to
local economic development, economic integration of poor areas with more prosperous areas, and
physical and economic connectivity improvements. PAMANA provides socio-economic development
support to areas that will not have been prioritized under regular agency programs.
Pillar 3 projects also aim to heal, build and strengthen the relationships within and among
communities, and between citizens and the government to build up the social and institutionalcapital necessary to further peace and development in these areas. As such, the implementation of
sub-regional development projects under PAMANA is guided by peace and social cohesion standards
of inclusion, participation, transparency and accountability, and conflict-sensitivity and peace
promotion, as embedded and operationalized throughout every stage of policy, program and project
implementation.
Pillar 3 is being implemented by the Department of Agriculture (DA), Department of Environment
and Natural Resources (DENR), Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), Department
of Energy (DOE), Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), National Electrification
Administration (NEA), National Irrigation Administration (NIA), Department of Agriculture and
Fisheries (DAF-ARMM) with the Bureau of Fisheries Aquatic Resources (BFAR)-ARMM, DILG-
ARMM, DENR-ARMM, DPWH-ARMM and Office of the Regional Governor-ARMM in partnership
with LGUs.
Overall, as of 31 March 2015, there are 1,876 sub-regional projects in different stages of development.
Of these, 833 projects were completed, 352 are ongoing, 67 are in procurement stage, 491 are in
preparatory stage, and 133 are in other stages of implementation. Tables 12 and 12A show the
