Comprehensive Development Plan

FOREWORD

I am very proud of the Municipality of Bustos and all it has to offer. Though only a

second class Municipality, it prides itself of resilient and hardworking people, an

environment bounteous of natural resources, and a Municipal Governmen t that

promotes good governance to give back what is due the people.

As we usher in a new era, public administration must go hand -in-hand with the

modern principles of governance. We must adapt to the changing times, and

complement public service with the new approach in leadership and management.

This great Municipality now demands that its leaders abandon the politics of partisan

division and find creative solutions to promote the common good. A people that

prizes candor, accountability, and fairness insists that a government of the people

must level with them and champion the interests of all families. A land of historic

resourcefulness has lost its patience with elected officials who have failed to lead. We

can do better.

We believe that every citizen of Bustos, whatever their background or station in life,

should have the chance to get a good education, to work at a good job with good

wages, to raise and provide for a family, to live in safe surroundings, and to retire

with dignity and security. We believe that quality and affordable health care is a basic

right. We believe that each succeeding generation should have the opportunity,

through hard work, service and sacrifice, to enjoy a brighter future than the last.

We will improve the state of our economy through the growth and animation of eco-

cultural tourism industries. We will provide social relief to the marginalized. We will

improve our financial stability through healthy fiscal management that centers on

effective and efficient revenue generation rather than imposing higher or new taxes.

We will tighten the belt to ensure that the taxes the citizens pay for go to meaningful

and high-impact programs and projects that benefit the many and not a privileged

few. We will invest on the future, by giving what is due our youth in terms of

education and health care. We will strengthen a government that stands up for the

hopes, values, and interests of the working people, and gives everyone willing to work

hard the chance to make the most of their God-given potential.

This is our pledge; and this is our commitment.

Everyone has the right to a livelihood. Disability and poverty form a vicious circle, disabled people are more likely to be poor and poverty makes disability more likely. Thus for displaced persons, the loss of livelihood might engender a number of protection risks, as it affects the psycho-social well-being of individuals by lowering self-esteem. Generating income during displacement not only improves the quality of life for individuals; it helps avoid protracted dependency and exposure to further discrimination and abuse. We should aim to sustain PWDs with livelihoods in both the short-term to save lives and the long-term to build resilience and address vulnerability.

O B J E C T I V E

Empower PWDs with capabilities necessary for them to attain the quality of life they wish to achieve through entrepreneurial opportunities.

Pre-Implementation


Preparation of study which is intended to:

Identify PWDs with the capacity to participate in the project.

Identify household livelihood strategies and economic and traditional roles, particularly with regard to the control of resources and assets, mobility, access to markets and access to and administration of resources. A thorough understanding of how income used to be generated will help ensure that livelihood interventions promote equality and the maximum use of existing resources within the community.

Identify, through participatory assessments, the skills and capacities as well as the economic coping strategies during displacement , focusing on various age and gender groups of PWDs. Ensure that the results inform the design of livelihood projects and build on existing coping strategies specific to each group. What may be appropriate for demobilized males, for example, might not be appropriate for female heads-of-households or older persons.

Be sensitive to skills and activities that might be unproductive or even seen as undesirable from different perspectives (i.e. undignified, discriminatory, unsustainable, overloading of local market, lack of markets for products produced).

Proponent March to August 2011

Submission of the results of the above study to the Office of the LCE.


Create linkages to:

Liaise with agencies promoting self-reliance, livelihood and development to ensure that livelihood-support programmes are launched from the outset of displacement along with food aid and other emergency interventions.

Promote close cooperation of psycho-social and health institutions with employment and income-generation projects to strengthen the link between trauma recovery and self-reliance.

Proponent October 2011 to January 2012

Formulate a livelihood program that:

Is applicable to the capacities of PWDs and helps develop skills that match local market needs. Target however the less saturated areas of the local market, which may also help prevent possible tensions between the displaced and host communities.
