It isanchoredonanunderstandingthatcomplexsecurity,justice,andeconomicdrivers perpetuate confict in the Bangsamoro region and escalate development costs, and so thebusinessasusualapproach1indevelopmentplanningisnotappropriatetothe Bangsamoro situation.Thus,thePlansprimaryobjectiveistoaddressinjusticeandtacklethesourcesof discontent that drive confict, as a pre-condition for achieving sustainable and inclusive growthinthesubsequentyears.Thiswillbeachievedthroughtheimplementationof targeted programs that respond to the needs and aspirations of Bangsamoro communities, and address the sources of dissatisfaction over the transition phase, while strengthening the capacity of Bangsamoro institutions to build a peaceful and resilent society.The BDP will be implemented in three phases: Phase 1 (2015 to mid-2016) Transitional development plan that will jump-start the just economywith stabilization and pump-priming programs.Phase 2 (mid-2016 to 2022) Medium-term strategic interventions and investments to build a strong foundation for the Bangsamoro. Phase 3 (2022 and beyond) Long-term development towards a sustained just economy.1The orthodox manner by which development plans are formulated is anchored on the dynamics of the market, wherein sectoral concerns are feshed out based on a functioning market system.Promoting Just, Honorable and Lasting Peace and Sustainable Development in the Bangsamoro (2015 to mid-2016 and mid-2016 to 2022)3ThechallengeoftheBDPistoreleasetheBangsamorofromtheviciouscycleof underdevelopment, wrought by decades of injustice, confict and poverty, into a virtuous cycleofpeaceandsecurity,accountableinstitutions,economicandsocialstability, justiceandequity,jobsandlivelihoods,theeffcientdeliveryofsocialservices,and improved environmental indicators. Despiteitsnaturalandhumanresources,theenvisionedBangsamorocoreterritorycomposed of the fve provinces of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) and proposed expansion areas in Lanao del Norte and North Cotabatohas historically beenthepoorestregioninthecountry.Itsconsistentlyunderperformingeconomy isprimarilyaresultofabackwardagriculturesectorandthepersistenceofalarge shadow economy.2Despite popular clamor for fscal self-determination, only 2% of the total revenues received by ARMM are generated within the region.The rest (98%) comes from various forms of national government subsidies (i.e., IRA to ARMM LGUs, PDAF to ARMM congressmen, national government agencies subsidies to their counterparts in ARMM, and grants from donor agencies) to the region.3

Table 1 below shows selected development indicators comparing the ARMM with 2013 national averages and that for the rest of Mindanao. While the 2014 signing of the CAB between the GPH and the MILF and ongoing governance reforms in the ARMM have raised expectationsforpositivetransformation,limitedlivelihoodopportunities,inadequate socialservices,weakinstitutions,anddeeppolitical,culturalanddeepeconomic inequityexacerbatedbyarmedviolenceandresultantcyclicaldisplacementshave created serious challenges that must be overcome.

Beyond economic outcomes, the projected impact of theBDPisstabilityandconfdence-buildinginsupportofpoliticalandnormalization transition outcomes, as a result of rapid delivery of results on the ground.Below are examples of the proposed projects under each of the thematic areas: Under Economy and Livelihood, cash for work, literacy and livelihood assistance particularly for women, assistance to farmers and fshers in the form of mechanized farmequipment,pre-andpost-harvestfacilities,micro-fnancing,inputsubsidies such as fertilizers and planting materials for the former and fshing nets, fsh cages and small boats for the latter. Under Infrastructure, construction of farm-to-market roads, small irrigation facilities, rehabilitation of airports and seaports and provision of emergency lighting for remote areas. Under Education, institutionalization of an integrated basic education curriculum, adultliteracyandskillstrainingprogramsforwomen,inactiveyouth,on-the-job trainings and scholarships, especially for key technical government functions. Under Environment and Natural Resources, hiring of forest rangers to protect the forests, and sea guards to protect coastal areas. Under Health, massive immunization of children, provision of more PhilHealth cards, and recruitment and training of more medical personnel, construction and staffng of more Barangay Health Stations.Under Social Protection, accelerated implementation of Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT), social safety nets for the elderly, IPs, widows, orphans and other vulnerable groups, as well as emergency assistance for IDPs in terms of housing and livelihood.Under Culture and Identity, construction of historical markers, makbarah (public cemeteries), and museums.BDP Thematic Areas and Priority RecommendationsPromoting Just, Honorable and Lasting Peace and Sustainable Development in the Bangsamoro (2015 to mid-2016 and mid-2016 to 2022)6 Governance, Justice and Security programs shall be consistent with the commitments set forth in the CAB and as determined by mandated transitional bodies suchastheBangsamoroTransitionCommission(BTC),theJointNormalization Committee(JNC),TransitionalJusticeandReconciliationCommission(TJRC), Independent Decommissioning Body (IDB), among others.Sectoral Recommendations1.

Social ServicesLimited access to social services is one of the sources of injustices that fueled confict in the region.4 Years of protracted confict and underdevelopment have resulted in the destruction of facilities and discouraged social workers from accessing the region. As a result, educational attainment is low, health outcomes are poor, and child malnutrition is widespread.Though the high poverty incidence in the Bangsamoro can partly be attributed tothelackoflivelihoodopportunities,highlyinadequateprovisionofsocialservices results in a signifcant decline in the overall welfare of the population disproportionately affecting poor households. With these signifcant barriers to development, compounded byrepeatedcyclesofviolenceandunfavorableneighborhoodeffects,5theHuman DevelopmentIndex(HDI)intheregionissignifcantlybelowthenationalaverageand has fallen in recent years.ProvidingaccesstobasicsocialservicestotheBangsamoroentailsbothatargeted strategy in the short-term and a spatially- and socially-blind strategy over the medium-term to highlight the BDPs distinctive policy that it is NOT business as usual. 4 World Bank.

Environment and Natural ResourcesTheenvironmentisatthecenterofboththeeconomyandculturalheritageofthe Bangsamoro. Many of its peoples identify deeply with their environment and are named after aspects of it the Maranaws are the people of the Lake, Tausugs are people of the current, the Yakans are the people of the hill, and Maguindanaoans are the people of the fooded plain. It is home to 10 of the 128 Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) in the Philippines,6 including areas of global ecological signifcance. With agriculture, fshery, and forestry accounting for 61.9% of output in ARMM, achieving sustainable development and growth is intrinsically linked to environmental management.The BBL commits the Bangsamoro to plan development taking into consideration the natural resources that are available for its use and for the use of future generations.7 Thesuccessofthisframeworkwillbelargelydeterminedbyanumberoffactors includinganenablingenvironment,availabilityofcapableandresponsiveinstitutions, a competent bureaucracy manned by god-fearing, effcient and effective personnel, and an enlightened and pro-active constituency.Towards these ends, the priority programs planned under environment are: reforestation andmanagementandprotectionofforestlands;aconfict-sensitiveassessmentof the mineral potential of the region; coastal protection and management of Lake Lanao; enforcementofenvironmentalpoliciestocounterpollutionduetoenvironmental exploitation; and disaster risk reduction and management programs for food control.5. Culture and IdentityTheBangsamororegionisahighlydiversemulti-culturalsocietycomposedof13 Muslimethno-linguisticgroups,approximately20non-Islamizedindigenousgroups, and Christian settlers of various origins.This cultural diversity underscores the need for inclusivity and localized solutions, while preserving the rich Bangsamoro heritage and knowledge practices.Initiatives that recognize and preserve Bangsamoro culture and identity are scarce and hence, will be pursued under the Bangsamoro government.Recognition of unity within diversity is the frst step towards strengthening social cohesion in the Bangsamoro.The BDPs priority programs include cultural preservation through inter-faith dialogues andtheestablishmentofmuseums,memorials,andparksthatcelebratethevarious culturesinBangsamoro;theconstructionofculture-specifcfacilitiesforhealth, education,andreligiouspurposessuchasprayerrooms,traditionalbirthingfacilities, cemeteries, and madaris, among others. 6 Lecciones, Amy.

It will be participative, transparent, and accountable to the public. Funding MechanismsThe implementation of the BDP will require a mix of funding mechanisms and channels from national government and bilateral and multilateral donors. Challenges to ImplementationImplementation Arrangements and Financing8 Normalization is phased as follows: Phase 1 - From signing of the Annex on Normalization to the completion of verifcation and validation of the IDB. Phase 2 - Completion of validation of MILF forces and ratifcation of the BBL. Phase 3 - Ratifcation of BBL to establishment and operationalization of the Bangsamoro Police Force, in parallel to decommissioning of 35% of the BIAF. Phase 4 Starting from the formation of the Bangsamoro Police Force, up to the 2 months prior to signing of the Exit Agreement.Promoting Just, Honorable and Lasting Peace and Sustainable Development in the Bangsamoro (2015 to mid-2016 and mid-2016 to 2022)12For additional funding requirements, a multi-donor Bangsamoro Trust Fund (BTF) which will pool funds from various donors to augment national government assistance to the Bangsamoro,is proposed. Additional funding will come from the ARMM budget for FY 2015, including program funds for special development programs such as BRIDGE and PAMANA; bilateral donors, and private sector investments.Project Management and Implementation Prior to the installation of the BTA, development programs and projects intended for the BangsamorowillbemanagedbyARMMandthenationalgovernmentagencieswhere thefundingassistanceislodged.Atthesametime,BDAandBLMI,aslegitimateand recognized agencies of the MILF, will also continue to manage project implementations fundedbyaidagenciesanddevelopmentpartners.ButoncetheBTAisestablished and ARMM is automatically dissolved, the funds and assets/properties under it will be transferredtotheBTA.Until2016,whenthenewsetofoffcersoftheBangsamoro governmentareelected,thefundsfromnationalgovernmentagenciesintendedfor projectsintheBangsamorowillbemanagedbytheseagenciesinclosecoordination withtheBTA.TheBlockGrantisexpectedtostartoperatingin2016whenmost development funds intended for the Bangsamoro will be managed by the ministries of the new Bangsamoro government.Promoting Just, Honorable and Lasting Peace and Sustainable Development in the Bangsamoro (2015 to mid-2016 and mid-2016 to 2022)13Objectives Flagship Programs ComponentsA.
