Rare Program for Sustainable Fishing in the Philippines
Strengthening MPA management through local communities
Pride English Program 2 (PEP-II)
Objectives of this Presentation
1. To illustrate the state of Philippine fisheries2. To give an overview of the Rare Program for Sustainable
Fishing in the Philippines3. To present RARE Pride and how it can address
overfishing using the RARE Pride Theory of Change4. To highlight the importance of MPA core zones (or no-
take zones NTZs)5. To show how we can all be involved in enhancing our
fisheries
Out of 1200 MPAs in the Philippines, only 10% of the existing are achieving habitat protection.
Estimated average annual catch per municipal fisherman for 1987-1996
The municipal production data are from BFAR (1997). The data on the increase in population of municipal fishers are adapted using data from BFAR (1993) and Bernascek (1994)].
“The problem” this century is thatmethods of overfishing removes life, kill the
habitats, and destroy everything they hit.
We are now capable of catching the last fish that remains in the oceans

Using the Theory of Change to AchieveSustainable Fishing in the Philippines
Increased community “buy in” and ownership of MPAs
(Solution = PRIDE for our MPAs)
and
Improved MPA governance of core zones(Solution = Enhancing the Philippine MPA
experience)
MPAs are Seabanks: Why MPA core zones are so important – growing big fish
EXPECTED RESULTS
Improved coral reef health inside the MPA core zone leads to increased fish catch by community fishers
due to the spillover effect
Working together…Full participation of all stakeholders and partners in
the improved governance of our MPAs
