Against the backdrop of the global financial crisis and rising food, fuel, and commodity prices, addressing poverty and inequality in the Philippines remains a challenge. The proportion of households living below the official poverty line has declined slowly and unevenly in the past four decades, and poverty reduction has been much slower than in neighboring countries such as the People's Republic of China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Viet Nam. Economic growth has gone through boom and bust cycles, and recent episodes of moderate economic expansion have had limited impact on the poor. Great inequality across income brackets, regions, and sectors, as well as unmanaged population growth, are considered some of the key factors constraining poverty reduction efforts. This publication analyzes the causes of poverty and recommends ways to accelerate poverty reduction and achieve more inclusive growth. it also provides an overview of current government responses, strategies, and achievements in the fight against poverty and identifies and prioritizes future needs and interventions. The analysis is based on current literature and the latest available data, including the 2006 Family Income and Expenditure Survey.

The Philippines is under assault, not from outside source but from within. Many are aware of the problem but can do little about it. Even if they wanted to do something about it, it is aggravated but those who do not think it is a problem. The assault is coming from our runaway population explosion. There is more than just the vast number of people in the issue of overpopulation. Many pro-lifers in the country do not seems to grasp the issue of overpopulation in relation to factors such as the quality of life, nutritious food, education, pollution, deforestation population density, traffic problem, crimes, unemployment and poverty, health, etc. Most of them are blind to the suffering of the poor who takes the blunt of the problem because they probably never experienced their kind of hardship and quality of life. Increasing population naturally entails the need for more of almost everything just to maintain our lifestyle albeit in many low quality for most of the people surviving now. We need more classrooms and teachers for the children and we cannot seem to lick both problems after all these decades because of the exploding population growth. In a stabilized population, there will no longer be need for new classrooms and funds could be channel to improving the education system and getting more children to finish higher education. . The basic services such as water supply and health services have been inadequate and will continue to plague us in the coming decades. There is not enough clean water to supply even all the inhabitants of the metropolis. Many have to pump up their water need from deep wells that are often contaminated while causing the sinking of the land above in many areas. Public health clinics and hospitals are often crowded with patients and many are dying for lack of medicines. The shelves in the supermarket may be full, but most of the poor do not have the money to buy their basic needs. According to one latest survey, nine millions people are surviving below $1 a day. Even more numbers are surviving below $2 a day. Not only that, they are not getting adequately the basic food necessities, such as protein that would allow them to compete in this world. Protein is essential for children if they want to develop their brains and improve their IQ. Are we going to continue to export our workers like slaves to other countries? Many of our countrymen are working abroad to earn a decent life for their family back home. Most of these jobs are unwanted by the locals. Some of them could be demeaning and often hard works. There is a serious unemployment and underemployment problems in the country, forcing them to look for jobs elsewhere. There is a need to balance the available jobs against the number of young people joining the workforce every year. Too many people out of work could mean more crimes as they tried to feed themselves and their families. The excessive labor force allows employers to mistreat employees on a hire-fire-hire basis. Many workers have been hired on a contractual work even for simple jobs. The female workers are particularly at a disadvantage. Some have been forced to work on a commission basis selling cigarettes and candies whose commissions do not add up to half the basic salary mandated by law while others are not even given any commission unless they reach a certain quota. This wanton practice is possible only because there are too many unemployed workers in a finite labor market. In fact many of them are willing to work for pittance just to fill their stomachs and that of their loved ones.

The Philippine economy has grown rapidly since 2010, but despite this growth, poverty and inequality remain high. Two-thirds of the poor live in rural areas, and the weak performance of the agriculture sector has contributed to the slow improvement in livelihoods. The challenge for agriculture will further increase, with climate change posing a growing threat to the sector. But agricultural transformation to spur sustained growth and reduce poverty is still possible under climate change with aggressive institutional reforms and implementation of the right mix of policies and programmes. The identification of the suitable policy and programme combination requires an accurate assessment of the key drivers of agricultural growth and food security; the impacts of climate change on agriculture and the overall economy; and the effectiveness of policies for adaptation and growth. This book addresses these big issues, focusing on enhancing the adaptation capacity of the Philippine agriculture sector. It is designed to provide a much-needed base of knowledge and menu of policy options to support decision- and policymaking on agriculture, climate change, and food security. The volume uses newly generated data, modelling outputs, and innovative analyses to provide a scientific basis for a variety of adaptation measures under different sets of climate change scenarios to guide decision-makers in strategic planning and policy formulation. “As we have actually experienced in Leyte, an island province in the Visayas where Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) struck, disasters caused by natural hazards could completely negate economic gains, devastate families and shatter dreams. Our greatest challenge is to make ourselves better prepared for and be more resilient to such disasters. Natural hazards need not always lead to loss of so many lives and properties. This book shows us ways and provides tools to draw up climate change and socioeconomic scenarios at the regional and provincial levels, allowing us to identify strategies for mitigating climate change risks.” — Ernesto M. Pernia, Secretary of Socioeconomic Planning, National Economic and Development Authority, Philippines “This book by top Philippine researchers combines state-of-the-art biophysical and economic modeling of climate impacts and adaptation policies with in-depth synthesis of agriculture, natural resources, climate trends, and policies. It provides a comprehensive assessment of climate change impacts on agriculture and the broader economy to provide important insights for Philippine policymakers.” — Dr Cynthia Rosenzweig, Head, Climate Impacts Group, NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies and Co-Founder of the Agricultural Model Inter-comparison and Improvement Project (AgMIP)
