EXPANDED PAEPI MISSION
Extension is one of the important trilogy of functions of higher education institutions. Vis--vis instruction and in light of recent technological advancement, extension complements and fills in the gaps left by instruction specially for those who, for multifarious reasons, can not access formal instruction to gain individual transformation.
Extensionists are employed in both government and non-government institutions to
become agents of change. As agents of change, extensionists should process the appropriate
knowledge, attitudes, skills and practices to effectively perform. Capability building if extensionist to meet the challenging tasks of changing people and communities
becomes a
continuous process. Furthermore, extensionists as agents of change must think and act as
professionals and should be well-versed in the acceptable theories and practices of their job.
To formalize the theories and principles of extension and integrate these into actual practice, PAEPI envisions to elevate extension to the level of discipline so that its practitioners,
the extensionists, become well-equipped in the science and art of extension and to become
wholly integrated professional extensionists. The demand is great for an
extensionist who
is a true professional in the execution of his duties and functions in the work environment. In
the task of meeting this demand, PAEPIs mission is to bring
extension the level of discipline and as a profession by continuous research and capability building that will contribute
significantly to the development of professional extensionists with tested practices grounded
on acceptable theories, principles, approaches, methodologies and techniques of community
extension.

The triangle represents the Philippines as a strong republic through the PAEPI
way reaching all its corners and islands. Its yellow background color manifests a brighter
future for the country.
The three person-silhouettes represented by a big heart, head and arm show
each and every individual or group, government and non-government associations,
educational institutions, officials and members of the PAEPI voluntary making
themselves EXTENSIONISTS willing to carry out the mission, vision and objectives of the
association in all the three main islands of the country that is LUZON, VISAYAS and
MINDANAO irrespective of their culture and tradition, race and religious affiliation with
more emphasis for the indigenous people and/or marginal sector of society who need
most the services of the EXTENSIONISTS. The three big hearts manifest the service to
others before self principle. This is the key players of the association.
The three equal sectors each represents the 3Es in PAEPI like the EXTENSIONISTS, the END-USERS, and the EXTENSION PROGRAM. The first sector EXTENSIONISTS
the service and training provider and the source of the social transformation. He/she is
referred to as the Extensionists with a heart. He/she voluntarily joins the organization
more importantly for service to others, especially to the less privileged and indigenous
people and/or the marginal sector of society. The second sector END USERS-the
beneficiaries of the association objectives and programs. These trained in a specific trade
or skills they have learned and developed for their own and others for economic upliftment. The third sector EXTENSION PROGRAM this is the lifeblood of the association
without which, the association will die a natural death. The Extension Program spells out
the continuing existence of PAEPI and defines the welfare benefits it provides to both the
EXTENSIONISTS and END USERS in particular and the ASSOCIATION in general.
The big and small endless ropes tightly bind the PAEPI beneficiaries the endusers in a strong, loving and caring relationship for the welfare and interest of the entire
membership of the program with emphasis on the legal foundation, institution and by
laws wherein the association has been established.
In between the big and small rope circles is a space where the words PHILIPPINE
ASSOCIATION OF EXTENSION PROGRAM IMPLEMENTORS, Inc. is inscribed.

ABSTRACT
In response to the problems associated with climate change, the College of Forestry and
Environmental Science of Central Mindanao University instituted the ICE CREAM program. This
program is primarily concerned with increasing the resiliency of its partner community, the local
government of Dologon, Maramag, Bukidnon. The program has three components: a) the MANGO
program or Management of Natural Resources by Grassroots Organizations, b) SAGO or Solid Waste
Management as Green Opportunities, and c) Durian or DRRM through the Utilization of Research,
Information,andNetworks.
Generally the program aims to enhance the capability of the participants as well as the
community in order to adapt to the effects of climate change thereby reducing risk and providing
developmentopportunitiestoindividualsinthelocalgovernmentunitofDologon,Maramag.
Utilizingapartnershipdevelopmentframework,severalparticipatorytoolswereusedinorderto

unified system involving land and water management practices that simultaneously addresses
biophysical, geological, ecological, environmental, sociocultural and economic components as well as
diversityandinteractionthatleadtoagreatfunctional,structuralandorganizedsystem.
This study is focused mainly on the installation of an Agroforestry System Design among
smallfarmholdersasamitigationandadaptationmeasuresinthechangingclimatealongthewatershed
areas. The relevant data generated were the vulnerability index of river watershed, through GIS,
biophysicalgeologic characterization, and socioeconomic survey of the smallfarm holders and
appropriatemethod of agroforestry system design forthe installation of thepilotarea. Other relevant
data were Carbon Sequestration, physicochemical properties of soil and water, hydrological data,
meteorology,FGDsandotherAgronomicData.
General findings revealed that the selected agroforestry system based from the data on GIS

fisherfolks.
After Sendong, Bayug Island was declared as no build zone. Power and water reconnections
were not permitted. But extension service volunteers of MSUIIT returned in February 14, 2012 to
continue their extension activities. On April 26, 2013, a City Ordinance establishing the Bayug Island
AquamarineParkwasapproved.
With the support of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, at least 65,000propagules
were planted and six aquasilvi projects were establishedas of July 2014. Interventions in Bayug Island

hedgerow had more occurrence of soil loss while the lowest were noted on the areas planted with
pigeon peas. There were no significant differences noted on early and medium maturing pigeon pea
variety and on vetiver grass. This meansthat pigeon pea is effective in reducing soil loss and it can be
comparable with vetiver grass in reducing soil erosion. The results were consistent for two cropping
seasons. Nitrogen content of the soil increases except for P, K, and Zn after harvest and pH is within
tolerable level. Based from the results, the researchers concluded that pigeon pea as hedgerow is

ABSTRACT
Sabaorcardabavarietyisoneoftheimportantfoodinthecountryespeciallyforruralhouseholds
and is increasingly being recognized as a commercially traded raw material for various food and
nonfood industrial products. The cultivation of saba is a common enterprise among farmers in the
upland areas of Orion, Bataan, it has been considered as important commodity being cultivated and
produced in the municipality. To develop the commodity and to increase the area devoted for saba
production, the establishment of S&T based farm on Saba Production and Processing is tangible
program that will serve as show window and model for farmers, entrepreneurs and stakeholders on

ABSTRACT
Electronics circuit in any appliances and gadgets are made up of many different components

deviceliketheovervoltageprotect(OVP)circuit.Moderntechnologyhasenabledthedevelopmentof
highprecision test equipment such as analog and digital multimeters. However, the price of this
productisbeyondthecapacityofordinarypractitioners(Gecain,2005).Asaresponsetothisneed,the
researchers decided to develop an innovative Zener Diode Tester using locally available and recycled
materials.Thoughitissimpleandlowcost,yet,itcanperformspecialfunctionsneededbyelectronics
technologystudents,instructors,technicians,andhobbyistintheirfieldofwork.Thus,thepurposeof
thestudywastodesignanddevelopanacceptableZenerDiodeTesterthatcanbeusedbyelectronics
technology professors, and students of PIT for an enhanced delivery of the instruction. Furthermore,
thisstudyaimedtotestthecapabilityoftheZenerDiodeTester,andtodetermineitsacceptabilityin
terms of design, performance, and safety as perceived by the electronics professors and electronics
technology students of PIT. Results of the study reveal that the device was evaluated based on the
three (3) criteria indicated in the evaluation sheet, with the data interpreted as follows: On the
evaluation results by the electronics technology professors, safety got a very high mean (M=4.60) or
very acceptable, followed by performance (M=4.55), then, the design had a mean of 4.50 or very
acceptable.
Findings, then, of the study affirmed that the ZenerDiodeTesteris highly acceptable in terms of
design, performance, and safety; and would, therefore, answer the need of electronics technology
professorsandstudentsofPITasareliabletestinstrumentthatcanbeusedtochecktheconditionof

Abstract
This descriptive-evaluative study aimed to access the development of the Busog,
Lusog, Talino school feeding program and its impact on the beneficiaries in terms of
Body Mass Index level after 136 feeding days. Part of the study was to determine the
common problems encountered by the BLT team and lastly, to evaluate the satisfaction
level of the BLT Teamand pupils parents on the program implementation.The data
revealed that an average of 95% to 97% of the pupils completed the program and that
82% to 85% of students attained a normal BMI level after its implementation. Finding
revealed that the five common problems encountered by the BLT team during the
program implementation were lack of parent commitment and involvement in the
program , lack of support (financial and in-kind) from the LGU, failure of the BLT schools
to attain 100% of pupils to complete the 136 feeding days , failures of the BLT schools to
achieve 100% of pupils to attain normal BMI and lack of medical intervention done to
pupils who were sickly and had poor appetite. Lastly, the findings showed that the BLT
team and parents of two participating schools were satisfied in the implementation of
the said program. As part of the recommendation , the researchers highlighted the
importance of looking for possible tie-ups or partners that can help sustain the program
and address the problem s encountered. Furthermore, a workshop on the formulation of
an action plan is recommended to ensure the overall success of the program.

Abstract
TheFreireanbasedapproachtoCDmakesconnectionbetweenknowledge,powerandculturein
enabling more authentic community empowerment and development. Some authors have focused on
the role of cultural values as facilitators of or constraints to development. Community development
experiences have shown how ethnic, gender and other cultural identities have shaped peoples
capacitiestochangetheirlivesandsocieties.Thus,Matarasso(2007)espousesculturalactionasaroute
to community development. On the other hand, Duncombe (2007) explains that there can becultural
resistance to community development. Against this backdrop, the paper will discuss how community
development as a process can respond to the needs of the client communities of HEIs by considering
their cultural context. Some cases will be used to highlight the relationship between culture and
communitydevelopment.

CULTUREANDCOMMUNITYDEVELOPMENT
The World Declaration on Education For All (EFA) prescribes that basic learning needs (BLNs)
shallbemadeavailabletoallbyvariousmeans.BLNscomprisebothessentiallearningtoolsuchas
literacy, numeracy, oral expression and problem solving and the basic learning contents including
knowledge, skills, values and attitudes required by human beings to be able to survive, to develop
their full capacities, to live and work in dignity, to participate fully in development, to improve the
quality of their lives, and to make informed decisions (UNESCO 1994). Thus, a culturallysensitive
curriculum for alternative learning system and early education was developed and implemented in
selectedmunicipalitiesofOccidentalMindoro.
Despite the long process and other constraints met in the development and delivery of
culturallysensitive alternative learning system, individual and community level impacts have been
achieved. Community level impacts include unity among the people, improved health and hygiene
practices,improvedsocializationandcommunicationoutsidethecommunity,andtheabilitytodelve
intootherendeavours.Impactsontheindividualincludeincreasedconfidenceofthechildren,partial
fulfillment of their dreams for an education, and being able to communicate their needs to the
barangayofficialsandthelocalgovernmentunits.

ABSTRACT
This paper posits that communitycentered and holistic approach in promoting agricultural
extensionamongthedifferentfarmingcommunitiesinOccidentalMindoro.
The Occidental Mindoro State College (OMSC) implements various extension activities in
partnershipwiththegovernment,nongovernmentandprivateorganizations.Theprogramhadserved
as vehicle in the strengthening of the working relationships between the College and other
development organizations.This had facilitated the institutions/organizations to pool resources and
worktogethertowardsacommongoaltheenablingofthecommunitiestobecomeempowered.
Trainingsandseminarsonorganicagriculture,organizationalmanagement,animalproductionand
postharvestwasconducted.
The agricultural extension program of OMSC can be very effective instrument in bringing
development to the communities. It has enabled the generation of sustainable livelihood, enhanced
community awareness on organic agriculture and rekindled aspirations of the people to attain better
lives.
It had also helped strengthen the Institutions working relationships with other public, private,
and peoples organizations. The collaborations that were formed by this program have not only
reinforced the extension activities, but have also opened many socioeconomic opportunities to the
communities.
Moreover, the project experiences suggest that the success of any development program is
dictatedbyrealisticandneeddrivenprograms.

government offices from six regions in Mindanao participated in the survey. Based on
the provisions of the Philippine National Standards (PNS), results of the survey showed
that the capacity of HEIs to integrate HFP in their curricula is constrained by a number of
factors which generally includes technical expertise and infrastructures.
Given the
necessary policy environment and government support, HEIs will be more than capable
to integrate HFP in their academic programs.
The concept of halal is the convergence of the religious and the technical aspects
of HFP. Halal food production and its processes as they are adopted in science require
certain resources such as knowledge, skills and technology which, as the present study
perceives, can only be provided by HEIs. However, this is constrained by the lack of
certain infrastructures such as modern halal laboratory equipments to accommodate
89
halallaboratory techniques in the detection of haram components. There is an intense need for the

ABSTRACT
The Mangrove Rehabilitation Project as one of the components of the Philippine National
Aquasilviculture Program (PNAP) was implemented in partnership with the State Universities and
Colleges (SUCs) in the Bicol Region by virtue of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) by Bureau of
Fisheries and aquatic Resources BFAR) and the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) signed last
December 16, 2011. The Partido State University is SUC partner representing Camarines Sur in the
Bicol Region.
.
A total of 183,000 mangrove seedlings in 61 hectare area in the seven (7) barangays of
Caramoan, Tinambac and Garchitorena, Camarines Sur. These sites were specifically suggested by the
DENR because of its vast area suitable for planting mangroves.
The mangrove beneficiaries were identified by the Project Management Office(PMO)in
consultation with the Local Government Units (LGU) and the FARMC guided by the following criteria:
bonafide residentin the area/project site; willingness to participate in the program and abide with the
terms and conditions; preferably identified and included in the list of marginal sector of the Department
of Social Welfare Development (DSWD).
The budget for this project is 1,099,000.00 which started December2011 and terminated
December 2012.A total of 967,125.00 were paid to 150 beneficiaries for 183,000mangrove propagules
planted and 130,650 (75.57%) number of surviving propagules.
The willingness of the partner LGUs, beneficiaries, Community Organizers (COs) and other
stakeholders to participate in this project played a great part in the realization of the project. This
commendable intervention of the government addressed poverty among fisherfolks in Camarines Sur
particularly in Partido District. Environmental awareness was the tangible lesson learned by the
implementers and fisherfolk beneficiaries. They had come to learn that (1) mangrove have a greater
role in the environment than being made to charcoal for in exchange for a days meal; (2)mangrove
have a very great impact on the sustainability of their livelihood which is fishing; (3) fishes and aquatic
products should have a good refuge for them to multiply and live; and (4) in order to survive , they
should be fully aware of their roles for a sustainable and productive world.

This study sought to analyze the co-optation of indigenous and modern farming
practices among Tboli rice and corn farmers in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato, Philippines.
Data were collected primarily from Tboli rice and corn farmers, extension workers, and
community leaders through key informant interviews, focus group discussion, and other
personal communications. Interviews were transcribed and translated. Data were
analyzed qualitatively.
Results show that Tboli farmers combine indigenous farming practices and belief
systems with modern ones. Findings also show that co-optation is a natural process
among the Tbolis, is influenced by several actors, and is guided by learning principles.
Farmers believed that merging indigenous and modern farming knowledge could bring
about farming practices that are suitable to their capacities and needs.
Since delivering extension on a top-down basis and through diffusion of
innovation seems detrimental to the indigenous belief systems and practices, co-optation
should be given more importance in extension.
