    Republic of the Philippines


    RIZAL PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT
    Ynares Center Compound, Antipolo City

    GENDER AND DEVELOPMENT FOCAL POINT SYSTEM

    I. PROJECT TITLE

    Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situation

    II. RATIONALE/BACKGROUND

    Poverty may not be an issue of gender that should be addressed but when poverty
    starts affecting the rights of men and women to enjoy access to basic services
    thereby resulting to limitations to either of the sexes, then it becomes a gender
    concern. Filipino women whose gender role is keeping and budgeting family’s
    finances oftentimes bears the biggest burden.

    Poverty in the Philippines has often hampered at how the women of the society
    function. In a community where males are given more opportunities to earn and
    are seen to be breadwinners, women most often take a back seat.

    Records show that for the last three (3) years; 2019 to 2021, more females have
    been seeking financial assistance to augment the family’s financial situations.

    Year Type of Assistance Male Female


    2019 Medical 3278 8725
    Burial 458 1240
    2020 Medical 2025 4744
    Burial 256 559
    2021 Medical 3356 9413
    Burial 503 1498
    Total 9876 26179

    Higher number of females given assistance does not necessarily equate to females
    enjoying a higher rate of attention and access to services, this only goes to show
    that somehow that there is a gap on provision of basic services which must be
    coupled with empowerment.
    Through random individual consultations to the clients seeking financial
    assistance to defray the cost of medical and burial expenses, 80% of 50
    respondents, 25 males and 25 females see that this program provides an
    immediate poverty alleviation. They said that it is during times of crisis and
    distress when the female who tends to be more emotionally unstable needs
    financial assistance with less requirements and obligations. Both male and female
    respondents verbalized that providing immediate response to crisis situation
    would entail a longer lasting impact to the economic situation of both men and
    women.

    III. OBJECTIVES

    As part of the province’s continuous attempt to protect and uphold the rights of
    women and ensure that all sectors are given equal access to services, the program
    aims to ensure that the marginalized sectors are given assistance and opportunities
    to bounce back and be freed of emotional trauma brought about by sudden crisis
    like hospitalization and death of a family member; circumstances that may be
    normal yet causes immense pain at the most unexpected times.

    Occurrences of such events are inevitable hence decrease of incidences is


    impossible, but the government may help to cushion the impact which hampers
    the vulnerable’s full enjoyment and fulfillment of their rights.

    IV. TARGET BENEFICIARIES

    Beneficiaries are targeted through the above – mentioned assistances given for the
    last three years, taking in consideration that we are still experiencing pandemic.

    We have targeted 9000 women and 6000 men for the year 2023.

    V. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE/WORK PLAN

    The project will start from Day 1 of 2023 Calendar year, where walk – in clients
    both male and female will be given assistance upon assessment and presentation
    of required documents supporting their crisis. PSWDO Case workers will conduct
    initial assessment of gender issues of the client upon interview. Case workers will
    then note which clients need to be subjected to Gender Sensitivity Orientation and
    will attend Semestral Basic Gender Sensitivity Orientation conducted by the
    PSWDO GAD Focal or any invited GAD Practitioner. However, depending on the
    need for immediate GAD Orientation, Gender Sensitivity Orientation maybe
    referred to LGU GAD Focals.

    VI. ESTIMATED COST/BUDGETARY REQUIREMET

    With the rising cost of living, it is estimated that this project will cost:

    Medical Assistance : P2,500 x 12,750 male and female clients = P31,875,000.00

    Burial Assistance: P2,500 x 2,250 male and female clients = P5,625,000.00

    Total : P37,500,000.00

    VII. IMPLEMENTING TEAM

    Implementing team will be composed of personnel from the Governor’s


    Office, Provincial Social Welfare and Development Office (PSWDO) and Rizal

    VIII. PARTNERSHIP AND SUSTAINABILITY

    This program will be in partnership with the GAD Focals and Social Welfare
    Officers from all the LGUs in the province to ensure sustainability of objectives
    and goals.

    IX. MONITORING AND EVALUATION

    Monitoring of project’s impact will be done through interviews, home visitations


    and reports from the Local GAD focals or Local Social Welfare Officers. This
    program will initially run from 2023 to 2025 to give time for the results to
    manifest. Evaluation will be done right after the third year hence by January of
    2026, all data and reports will be analyzed to gauge the program impact.

    X. RISK MANAGEMENT

    During individual consultations the risks that may hamper the full
    implementation of the program is nature as there may be schedules when there
    will be typhoons and other disasters which may prevent them from attending or
    joining the orientations hence, flexibility of schedule shall play a primary role for
    the full implementation of the program. The program sees no risk though for any
    gender – based risks, as this shall holistically approach the issue and eliminate
    through different activities the possibility of escalation of gender inequality.
