This thesis critically examines innovation systems and processes in farming communities in three provinces of ADavao Region, Philippines, in the context of a farmer-to-farmer extension approach (Magsasaka Siyentista or MS) designed to bridge gaps between research, extension, farmers and the market. Empirical case studies of three innovation systems were conducted: biogas/swine in Davao del Sur; goat fodder in Davao Oriental; and Calamansi off-season production in Compostela Valley. Innovation histories in locations with and without MS were traced through workshops, semi-structured interviews,

Abstract:

This is a study about rural households making a living from a declining natural resource base and surviving in a changing rural economy in rural Philippines. Informed by the political ecology and feminist environmentalism theoretical frameworks, the study uses empirically-based theorizing to elucidate social factors that influence household resource management strategies. Interactions of class and gender relations, the coexistence of market and nonmarket relations, and the power of social networks are among the social constructs that shape the everyday choices and decisions of household resour

Abstract:

In developing countries, remittances play a key role as a source of external finance. Remittances are a form of aid that migrant workers send back to their families, located in their home countries, in order to support the needs of the household. In about 25% of developing countries, remittances are larger than public and private capital flows combined (International Monetary Fund, 2009). In 2008, the Philippines economy was the 47th largest economy in the world with a GDP of $322 billion dollars (Asian Development Bank, Fact Sheet). Remittances accounted for over 10% of the Philippine economy

Abstract:

The post World War II period saw a general downward trend in mortality throughout Asia and Latin America (Arriaga, 1981; Sivamurthy, 1981; Ruzicka and Hansluwka, 1982 ). In some of the countries of Asia, the decline was unprecedentedly fast during the immediate post World War II years (Sivamurthy, 1981). Similarly, in most countries of Latin America, a substantial increase in life expectancy at birth was noted in the 1950s (Arriaga, 1981). However, in the late 1960s and during the 1970s, a slowing down of the rate of mortality decline was observed in many of the less developed countr

Abstract:

China is experiencing massive rural-urban migration. The departure of young adults from rural areas poses challenges to traditional old age support arrangements in rural China. Concerning the practice of Confucian filial piety within the context of rural-urban migration, this study aims to explore the extent and dynamics of support among migrant workers' older parents in rural China. By employing a qualitative approach, this study carried out 29 semi-structured interviews in two rural villages and revealed the changing nature of filial piety in modern rural China in the context of rural-urban

Abstract:

This research addresses two themes: water scarcity and water resource management in the Philippines. Since 2004 the Philippines had been involved in the meeting the country’s Millennium Development Goal’s safe water target. Significant improvements have been achieved in access to drinking water in the rural areas, increasing coverage from 73 per cent to 91 per cent in 2012. Despite this achievement, there are still approximately 4.5 million rural residents in the country without access to safe water.

Studies have shown that emergency mental health trauma (EMHT) services can significantly reduce the long-term effects of trauma after a disaster. However, rural municipalities may find they do not have the capacity to create such a service, or may not realize that their disaster planning includes no provision for emergency mental health care. Such was the case in a rural island community in the state of Washington, where, in 2014, several residents initiated a discussion that helped to identify the community's lack of EMHT services.

A primary purpose is to address the absence of male peasant workers from the literature on gender and migration as a gendered category and the reductive public representation of them through government and media images.
