About the book
The main report of a large needs assessment of conflict-affected areas of Mindanao, made jointly with the government, international agencies and local stakeholders. It sets out what reconstruction and development would need after a peace agreement with the MILF, and led to the Mindanao Trust Fund.
This is the main report of a needs assessment of conflict-affected areas in Mindanao. The World Bank led it with the Philippine government, other donors, UN agencies and local stakeholders, including the Bangsamoro Development Agency. Its results were meant to shape a reconstruction programme funded through a multi-donor Mindanao Trust Fund.
The team reviewed existing studies, held consultations in Davao City and Manila, and then visited sample municipalities for workshops, interviews and focus groups. The report opens with a history of the conflict and the social situation of the region.
Its core chapters set out needs in 4 sectors: human development, rural development, finance and private sector development, and local governance. It also covers displaced people, gender, the environment and land tenure. The last chapters give priorities, the role of government, risks and the money needed.
Prepared with the Government of the Philippines, the Bangsamoro Development Agency and the international funding agencies.
