Implementation of Enhance Comprehensive Local Integration Program (E-CLIP) in Bulan Sorsogon: Basis for Sustainable Development Program
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study investigated the effectiveness of the E-CLIP program in reintegrating former rebels in Bulan, Sorsogon, Philippines. The program's resource availability (funding, manpower, and materials) and its impact on the program's four phases were analyzed. While a positive correlation between resource availability and program implementation was found, further evidence is needed to confirm this relationship across broader contexts. The Pre-Surfacing and Surfacing phases showed the strongest implementation, followed by a decline in Socio-economic and Capability Building, and the weakest in Sustainability and Communication Building. These findings suggest challenges in long-term engagement and highlight the need to strengthen later program phases. The study recommends developing a Resource Mobilization Plan to address resource gaps and explore new funding sources. Additionally, strengthening the Sustainability and Communication Building phase through alumni networks, community awareness initiatives, and long-term financial strategies is crucial.
