Kasama Ka!: Multistakeholder Partnerships for Solid Waste Management SIGMA, CAPIZ Key Implementation Steps 8. Ensure sustainability Expected Outputs • Continuous capacity building and IEC • Maintaining partnerships • Expansion beyond pilot sites Timeframe Continu ous Person/ Agency Responsible SDFI with SWM Board Budget/ Resources Required • Personnel: 21 trained personnel to manage/operate the MRFs, including 7 paid eco-aides; volunteers • Commitment of members • Political will on the part of LGU leadership Analysis and Lessons Learned Sigma’s KASAMA KA program is an exemplary local government practice in managing solid waste that can be replicated by other LGUs facing a similar problem. The required resources for the program are reasonable for any 4 th class LGU, or even other LGUs with higher or lower income classification, especially since the scope and range of the program may be modified depending on the available resources and needs of the LGU. For example, an LGU with less financial resources or a smaller solid waste problem can pilot the program in a smaller area first, build a smaller MRF to save on costs and train a smaller number of personnel at the beginning of the program. Based on Sigma’s experience, however, there are some critical elements that help ensure successful replication: • The active commitment and effort of the LCE and the Sangguniang Bayan is vital to the success of the implementation of an ecological enhancement program. • Participation is key to success; therefore the utmost effort should be done to ensure that as many stakeholders as possible are involved and that all residents are educated and encouraged to participate in the program. The consultations conducted by Sigma made the program responsive to people’s needs; thus, people felt its impact on their lives. The consultations also made residents realize they themselves were major stakeholders, who were indispensable in making KASAMA KA! a success. Getting the support and cooperation of community organizations and NGOs such as SDFI was also critical in getting more public participation in the program. Effecting and sustaining an LGU-NGO partnership is also a noteworthy feature that other LGUs should seriously consider in undertaking a SWM program. • Communication and education plays an important role in facilitating participation and accountability. Massive Information, Education and Communication (IEC) activities are therefore indispensable to make October 2005 15
