    One of the goals of the current administration is to achieve food security and food selfsufficiency in rice by 2016. This paper tries to look at the current food security situation of the country with respect to this goal, and tries to explore alternative pathways to achieving food security. Specifically, it aims to address the question: "Should the government continue its efforts in increasing rice productivity to achieve food self-sufficiency, or should it focus instead on increasing the production of high value crops for exports in the aim of achieving food security?" Results of the investigation revealed that the Philippines is still far from being food secure. At the macro level, the food-trade balance showed that food security has rapidly deteriorated due to increasing food imports (dominated by rice imports). While at the micro-level, food selfsufficiency was found to be negatively correlated with all four indicators of food security identified. This implies that in general, households that were more self-sufficient in food tend to be less food secure. Furthermore, rice self-sufficiency and per capita expenditure (a measure of standard of living), were found to be positively correlated with food security. Finally, we looked at whether expanding production high value crops would contribute to food security by reducing domestic food production. Results revealed that net returns are significantly higher for high value crops such as pineapple, milkfish, and mango as compared with cereal crops like palay and corn. -- Philippines ; food security ; food self-sufficiency ; rice self-sufficiency ; agricultural exports

    To avert the continued deterioration of Philippine forests and its negative consequences on the environment, the Aquino administration executed the National Greening Program (NGP) as the reforestation initiative of the government from 2011 to 2016. This study focuses on the scoping and process evaluation of the NGP using household survey, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions data gathered from the randomly chosen sites in the provinces of Zambales, Negros Occidental, and Dinagat Islands. Key results showed that the NGP household recipients experienced some marginal increase in average real income, though it was not statistically significant. The same is true when comparing NGP household recipients versus non-NGP household recipients. Propensity score matching results revealed that the effects of NGP on the local people have evidently induced bigger household size, higher number of working household members, and positive perception on NGP activities. In summary, there is no "one-size fits all" NGP strategy that would increase the likelihood of success. Recommended modification in the next program on Natural Forest and Landscape Restoration Program can focus on adjustments in allocated budget for forest development per hectare, revisions of incentives appropriate in a given reforestation site, and increased support to forest protection of existing forests, among many other suggested actions.

    For any developing country, improving the quality of higher education institutions is of paramount interest to government agencies especially the Commission on Higher Education. Several reforms have taken place and that one of the initiatives being done is rationalizing the structure of public higher education and improving the budget to ensure resource mobilization and cost efficiency. Despite these efforts, there are several issues that need to be addressed and one is the voluntary nature of the accreditation system. Another related issue is the number of multiple agencies catering to the accreditation of the various higher education institutions. This paper reviews the existing accreditation processes and roles of accrediting bodies to present a clearer perspective on the current situation of higher education institutions. Similar to other countries in the region, the accreditation process in the country is initiated by the private sector and is also voluntary, which adheres to the nature of the academe. Though it is a way of fostering academic freedom and motivating some institutions to compete, this could result in complacency in others. Policy implications include reshaping the institution in terms of keeping an accreditation mechanism built into the system, such as a quality assurance framework.
