“For the first time in the
Philippines, and perhaps
globally, an ICM project is being
financed and implemented solely
by a local government in
partnership with the private
sector. It is also the first time for
Manila Bay that an ICM program
is being established to mitigate
and prevent further deterioration
of its coastal and marine
resources.”

Challenges in ICM: The Bataan Experience
Sustainable Development Strategy
•The LGU is key – There is a critical need to secure collaborative efforts
among the different local government units to go beyond political affiliations
and agenda in pursuit of the formulation of the Sustainable Development
Strategy
•Stakeholder Involvement is a Must – Stakeholders have different views,
beliefs, and priorities. Getting them to agree on a common vision and direction
is necessary to secure their involvement.
Challenges in ICM: The Bataan Experience
Coastal Land- and Sea-Use Zoning Plan
•Selling the idea: Getting the stakeholders to understand and accept the
concept of zoning
•Getting them Involved
•For small/sustenance fishers, they cannot exchange their time at sea to
participate in planning process
•For affected sectors (fishpen/aquaculture/commercial fishing operators,
etc.), there is hesitation because of its potential impact to their livelihood,
•Resolving conflicts at the planning stage - Getting the stakeholders to
agree on specific uses for the zones and to abide by the understanding and
supporting policies
OBJECTIVES:
