Beyond Participation: A Multifaceted Evaluation of the Differently Abled MagkaNegosyo, Magkatrabaho Extension Project

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Extension projects are the social responsibilities of a state university. This project assessed the impact of the extension project of the Hospitality Management Department to the Persons- with-Disability beneficiaries in Malaybalay City using the input-process-output- outcome model of the theory of change. The researchers used a qualitative research design employing documentary and narrative analyses to determine the output and outcomes of the activities conducted on the extension project. The project enhanced vocational skills in bread, pastry, housekeeping, and business among PWDs in Malaybalay City, improving their employment opportunities and self- esteem. Consequently, the impact is extended to the community as the participants support their family members in education and meeting their daily needs. Other participants made a community- level impact by influencing other people through this training.
