SIBAT NGO PROFILE 2012

INTRODUCTION

Sibol ng Agham at Teknolohiya (SIBAT, Inc.) or Wellspring of Science and Technology, is a non-profit and non-governmental organization established in 1984 as a network of rural and national based organizations pioneering development of appropriate technology for socio-economic upliftment of poor communities in the Philippines.

Since then, SIBAT has evolved as an AT institution implementing direct grassroots projects and developing its core competencies while continuously rendering AT assistance in sustainable agriculture, water resource and renewable energy. SIBAT helps disadvantaged/poor households and communities, other POs and NGOs, government and private sector --- develop appropriate and community-based technologies in the country through participatory and community-based approaches. It helps enhance and create the possibility of underdeveloped barangays and sitios progressively improving the quality of their lives by participation in community endeavors and harnessing local and renewable energy resources --- through increased organic agricultural production, partake of social services and building local economic enterprise initiatives.

Through the years, SIBAT’s core staff comprised of multi-disciplinary teams and imbued with S&T developmental orientation have gained experience and increased capacities in the implementation of community-based projects utilizing participatory technological development processes.

Currently, SIBAT’s main thrust is to facilitate village-level sustainable development (VLSD) where rural and urban poor communities are given access to food, water, energy and the capability to help themselves.

Moreso, SIBAT nurtures dynamic partnerships and project cooperations with various local and national peoples’ organizations and non-government organizations in 27 communities in Central Visayas and Mindanao, and urban poor communities in Metro Manila in sustainable food production. SIBAT has established 38 community-based renewable energy systems (28 micro-hydro, 6 solar and 4 wind-solar hybrid systems) together with local partners in various parts of the country. SIBAT also disseminates its breakthroughs through networking events, e.g., conferences, regional workshop consultations, and fair trade events.

SIBAT continuously provides advisory services to its local partners such as community preparation and planning, market assessments, project design pre-feasibility and detailed feasibility studies, research and case studies, vulnerability assessment and adaptation studies, capacity building trainings, direct project implementation and management, impact evaluation, project

SIBAT’S CURRENT PROGRAMS AND SERVICES

Community-based Renewable Energy Development meanwhile has persevered in providing affordable and accessible energy intended for household electrification and economic enterprise for remote and mainly off-grid communities. To date, SIBAT has successfully installed 23 community-based microhydro systems (MHPs) and currently completing 5 MHPs; 6 solar photovoltaic water pumping (SPWP); and 4 small wind turbine energy projects. These projects are considered as the technology niches of SIBAT in community-based renewable energy development. SIBAT’s community-based renewable energy systems are small, decentralized power supply systems established through multi-stakeholder efforts in Philippine rural poor communities mostly inhabited by indigenous peoples; the systems have a tangible impact on their economy, education and health, and lessen the burden on women and children.

Community-based Water Resources Development presently builds five small scale gravity fed water systems in the Visayas (1) Panaghiusa, San Vicente, Trinidad, Bohol (2) Manga, Alcantara, Cebu (3) Binobohan, Negros Oriental (4) Luyang, Negros Oriental and (5) Campoaling, Negros Oriental. These water systems are intended for potable and household water supply, communal organic farms, nursery and backyard gardening needs of households.

Community-based Sustainable Agriculture (CBSA) projects which has five subcomponents: rural food production in varied typologies, urban food production, upland resource management, community seedbanking, and organic demonstration/seed farm development. SIBAT has established community-based and household farms in 21 agrarian reform communities in the Visayas region, and 2 community clusters in Mindanao. Meanwhile, urban sustainable food production efforts supplement the family’s food requirements and partially address biodegradable waste management in partnership with urban poor communities in Metro Manila. The following are the ongoing sustainable agriculture project sites: (1) Negros Oriental (2) Maasin, Southern Leyte (3) Aloguinsan, Minglanilla in Cebu (4) Ubay and Trinidad in Bohol and (7) Malapatan and Alabel in Sarangani Province, Southern Mindanao. Urban sustainable food production efforts are also pursued in various urban poor communities in Metro Manila.

OUR CAPABILITIESMarket Assessment. SIBAT’s pool of experts is trained and analyze markets where renewable energy/ electricity options can best be utilized and how. For both water and community-based rural electrification projects, SIBAT conduct detailed demand analysis and needs validation among targeted beneficiaries and work within the existing institutional framework to make sure that a proposed project shall be socially acceptable, financially and technically feasible and most importantly, sustainable.

Project Design. The market and resource assessment information combined with our in-house technical and management expertise are utilized to provide the clients with strategic advice and analysis to identify environmentally, financially and technically feasible projects.Putting the interest of the community and project sustainability on top of the criteria in the identification of the best option, the client will be advised on how the projects best be developed and implemented.

Conduct of Pre-feasibility/Detailed Feasibility Studies and Business Plan Development. SIBAT is pursuing community-based integrated development projects such that its renewable energy projects are not only for village electrification but are also designed to meet the required energy demand for small livelihood applications (if the source permits). Also, since SIBAT ensures that the projects are sustained, the watershed protection and/or rehabilitation program is incorporated as an integral component of any water or hydro project.

Detailed feasibility studies follow the framework of integrated community development such that not only the electrification requirements is addressed but more importantly the improvement of the village’s economic condition through the provision of an alternative livelihood or from basic as improving food production. Livelihood and community development activities are always integrated in the community-based approach in order to address socio-economic development aspects and ensure overall project sustainability.

Detailed feasibility studies for a community-based energization project will have a comprehensive market study, detailed resource assessment and financial /economic analysis, which will then serve as bases for identifying the most financially and technically feasible option.

Project Implementation and Management. To complement SIBAT’s work in project development , technical feasibility assessments and project design, we also assist proponents in the actual implementation and management of projects, providing the necessary project management and supervision during the installation.

Project Monitoring/Review. SIBAT undertake comprehensive assessment of ongoing and completed projects aiming to improve the project development and implementation process and identify lessons for similar projects in the future. This task was carried out through thorough review and validation of documented information, making the views of stakeholders regarding the project design and implementation known by conducting actual interview and field visits.

Training/ Capacity-Building. As SIBAT is pursuing a wholistic approach in its community development efforts, capacity building for the stakeholders/beneficiaries becomes an integral

part of any project. Project financial and technical management trainings as well as basic operation and maintenance are given to both technical and non-technical audiences. Transfer of basic technical and institutional for the beneficiaries to have a hands-on experience of the theories taught.

Trainings have been given to Pos and other NGOs who are also pursuing the same thrust in RE and SA project development. SIBAT is capable of developing training modules and manuals in the filed of sustainable agriculture and renewable energy for farmers, layman and technical audience.

Community Organizing. SIBAT believes that the success and sustainability of a project is greatly dictated by the socio-cultural and economic characteristics of the communities being considered for project implementation. As such, SIBAT provides services for community profiling and organizing aimed to adequately prepare and involve the people in the planning and implementation of the project. Training and mentoring are support services that are provided to establish local capability to sustain the operation of the project.
