Abstract: MOJICA, MELVIN NORCIO, Livelihood Programs in Selected Upland Towns of Cavite, BS Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Economics. Major in Development Economics, Cavite State University, IndanQ, Cavite. April 2009. Adviser. Dr. Maria A. Ersando. A study on the livelihood programs in selected upland towns of Cavite was conducted to determine: (a) the livelihood programs that were implemented and/or are being implemented during the last five years, and the period of implementation of the livelihood programs in upland towns of Cavite; (b) the source of budget for each livelihood program and the amount allocated in the implementation of the program(s); (c) the target beneficiaries and the actual beneficiaries in each program; (d) the status of development program(s) in each town; and (e) the problems encountered in the implementation of livelihood program(s). Secondary data were gathered from selected municipalities regarding their respective livelihood projects/programs covering the period 2003 — 2007. Descriptive method was used in the presentation and discussion of results. The study shows that there are different livelihood programs that are and/or are being implemented in selected upland towns of Cavite. The number of livelihood programs differed from one town to another. Magallanes had the highest number of livelihood programs being implemented for its constituents. The most common sources of fund for the implementation of various projects in different towns covered by the study were the local government fund, the Department of Agriculture and the DSWD. The amount allocated depended on the nature and coverage of the project. For the projects that were implemented and/or are being implemented, the amount ranged from PhP1,000.00 to PhP400,000.00. Almost all of the identified projects are still on-going. The most common problems encountered were lack of fund and the presence of some irresponsible/unreliable beneficiaries. Greater efforts should be exerted to secure funds from other agencies so that more livelihood programs could be implemented. Each municipality should try to propose and implement other livelihood programs that will benefit its constituents. Other qualified beneficiaries of livelihood programs should be identified and assisted. As much as possible, a unit that will take change of planning and implementation of livelihood programs/projects should be established. If possible, an assessment of the livelihood programs implemented and/or being implemented should be done for possible improvement or adjustment, particularly in the future. The beneficiaries of the livelihood programs in selected upland towns were mostly farmers, rural women and youth
