Final Project Report of the Fifth Operational Phase of the GEF - Small Grants Programme in the Phlippines

To contribute to overcoming the threats of habitat destruction and land-use change owing to destructive fishing and farming practices, overexploitation of valuable species and pollution, SGP-5 in the Philippines supported local people’s organizations, NGOs and community-based organizations in designing and implementing projects to contribute to global biodiversity conservation using the landscape approach and modeling and implementation of best practices. Individual small grant projects were intended to contribute concrete outputs to the achievement of SGP-5’s inter-related components and their respective outcomes.

Designed and implemented solely under the Biodiversity Conservation Focal Area, the objective of SGP5 in the Philippines was to secure global environmental benefits through community based biodiversity conservation initiatives and actions in selected priority sites in the Philippines, namely, Palawan, Samar Island and the Sierra Madre Mountain Range. The project pursued three components: (i) Communitybased actions improve the sustainability of protected areas (PAs); (ii) Mainstreaming biodiversity conservation and sustainable use into production landscapes, seascapes and sectors (PLS); (iii) Crosscutting capacity development and knowledge management.
