1.0 TWG Meeting (Components 1 and 2), October 8, 2020 (Day 1)
1.1 Introduction, Welcome Remarks, Highlights of the 3rd PSC Meeting
Ms. Amelita Ortiz, Assistant Director (AD) of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (DENR)-Biodiversity Management Bureau (BMB) and Project Technical Working
Group (TWG) Chairperson officially called the meeting to order at 1:00 PM. A total of 43
participants attended the meeting, composed of TWG members or their representatives, firms
and consultants, the Project Management Unit (PMU), and representatives from the Asian
Development Bank (ADB). The list of attendees is attached as Annex A.
In her Welcome Remarks, AD Ortiz shared that the TWG meets every quarter, the last meeting
of which was on February 5, 2020 in a face-to-face meeting held in B Hotel, Quezon City.
Following this, the 4th TWG meeting was supposed to take place in May 2020, but due to
COVID-19 travel restrictions and adjustments, the said meeting was postponed indefinitely.
She added that it has been eight months since the 3rd TWG meeting and three months since the
3rd PSC Meeting and that the time is ripe for the TWG to convene once more.
AD Ortiz informed the TWG that the 4th TWG Meeting will be conducted online and will be
spread out across two days as to not overload TWG members with outputs to review. AD Ortiz
led the members in reviewing the Provisional Agenda for Days 1 and 2 (attached as Annex B).
Day 1 focused on Component 1 (Strengthening Legal Frameworks and Increased Information
Sharing) and Component 2 (Capacity Building), while Day 2 (October 14, 2020; 10:00 AM –
12:00 NN) will focus on Component 3 (Demand Reduction and Communications, Education
and Public Awareness or CEPA). No comments were raised for the provisional agenda, and
the agenda for the meeting was adopted and approved.
AD Ortiz presented the Highlights of the 3rd Project Steering Committee (PSC) Meeting
(attached as Annex C). She highlighted the directives from the 3rd PSC Meeting and the status
of the Project in regard to the PSC directives in her presentation. No questions or comments
were raised.
She later turned over the chairmanship of the meeting to the Vice-Chair, Atty. Theresa Tenazas,
Division Chief of BMB- Wildlife Resources Division (WRD), due to another urgent meeting
she had to attend to.
1.2 Updates on Component 1 Outputs
Dr. Mary Jean Caleda, Project Manager of the DENR-ADB/Global Environment Facility
(GEF) Project on Combating Environmental Organized Crime in the Philippines or IWT
Project, presented a general overview of the accomplishments for Component 1 (attached as
Annex D).

1.3 Salient points of the proposed revisions to the Implementing Rules and
Regulations (IRR) of the Wildlife Resources Conservation and Protection Act
of 2001
Atty. Asis Perez presented the Salient points of the proposed revisions to the Implementing
Rules and Regulations (IRR) of the Wildlife Resources Conservation and Protection Act of
2001(attached as Annex E).
In the Open Forum, Dr. Caleda informed the TWG that it was agreed in a previous meeting
that Atty. Perez will incorporate the comments of DENR-BMB and the BMB Technical
Review Committee (TRC) after which, the draft will be sent to DENR-BMB to make a final
determination on the inclusion of the Bangsamoro Government (BMG) in the revisions to the
IRR. She asked BMB if they are ready to share their thoughts on the inclusion or exclusion of
BMG in the revised IRR.
Atty. Perez clarified that the agreement during the meeting was for him to send a legal
memorandum to DENR-BMB detailing salient legal considerations/ basis for the inclusion of
the BMG, before DENR-BMB makes their final determination on the matter.
Atty. Tenazas replied that BMB-WRD is ready to respond to the matter. She said that BMB’s
position is to include the BMG in the amendatory Bill, as already proposed, and to its
subsequent IRR, and not in the revisions to the current IRR.
Atty. Perez clarified if there is no need to submit a legal memorandum anymore as DENR-
BMB has already made a position. Atty. Tenazas answered in the affirmative.
She added that on the authority to sign the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for scientific
researches on wildlife, which currently falls under the authority of the Secretary, this can also
be included in the amendatory Bill and its subsequent IRR.
Ms. Cecilia Fisher of ADB asked whether all the rules presented for the Invasive Alien Species
(IAS) classification should be fulfilled to classify an animal as an IAS. Atty. Perez responded
that the rules are guides to be considered and that it is not necessary to fulfill all the criteria to
classify a species as IAS. He added that the final classification will be based on the
recommendation of the Wildlife Management Committee (WMC) and determination of the
Secretary.
Atty. Tenazas added that DENR-BMB currently has a pending Department Administrative
Order (DAO) on how to classify IAS. The DAO is currently pending review by the DENR-
Policy Technical Working Group (PTWG).
Prof. Judeline Dimalibot, University of the Philippines Los Banos (UPLB), shared that in
UPLB, there is a unit called Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) which
requires researchers to secure a permit prior to conducting any study on domestic or wild
fauna. She asked if these requirements will be included in the revisions to the IRR.
Atty. Perez answered that the IACUC’s rules are independent of the IRR.
8
Prof. Dimalibot also suggested defining the terms “personal consumption” and “family
consumption” in the IRR. Atty. Perez answered that the term originally used in the Wildlife
Act is “small scale utilization” which was ambiguous and hard to define, hence what was used
in its place was “personal and family consumption”. He added that it can be defined further,
but that he felt it was clear enough to be understood in determining the standard.
Prof. Dimalibot suggested to also invite the different conservation organizations (e.g.
Biodiversity Conservation Society of the Philippines, Philippine Biodiversity Conservation
Foundation, Mindoro Biodiversity Conservation Foundation Inc) to the IRR’s broader
consultation.
Pertaining to the proposed Rule 7.7, Prof. Dimalibot asked what the Project’s take on
threatened fauna that are considered as agricultural pests. Atty. Perez clarified that these
animals cannot be taken as they are threatened even if they are considered as pests.
1.4 Draft Local Government Unit (LGU) Resolution in Support of the
Revision of the Wildlife Act; Inter-Agency Resolution Against Wildlife Crimes
Atty. Perez presented the draft LGU Resolution in support of the amendments to the Wildlife
Act which the Project targets to solicit from selected LGUs in the project sites (attached as
Annex F). No questions were raised in this section of his presentation.
Atty. Perez also presented the concept note of the 4th National Environment Law Enforcement
(NELE) Summit (attached as Annex G) which describes the objectives and process for the
signing of a joint Resolution against Wildlife Crime by the National Law Enforcement
Coordinating Council-Subcommittee on Environment and Natural Resources (NALECC-
SCENR)
Dr. Caleda asked what the timeframe is for the preparatory meetings and if it is possible to
include as signatory to the resolution other agencies such as the Department of Tourism outside
of the NALECC-SCENR. Atty. Perez answered that the NELE Summit is ran by the Office of
the Undersecretary (USEC) for Enforcement and the NALECC-SCENR, hence the schedule of
the preparatory meetings and the list of invitees/signatories will be decided by them. He added
that what the Project can do is to submit the Concept Note to the NALECC-SCENER with the
suggested dates for the preparatory meetings, suggested agencies to be invited in the NELE
Summit, and proposed signatories.
1.5 Updates on Component 2 deliverables
Dr. Caleda presented a general overview of the accomplishments for Component 2 (attached
as Annex H), and thereafter called Atty. Fritzielyn Palmiera of Tanggol Kalikasan (TK) to
present the modules developed by the Project.
1.6 Modules on Introduction to Anti-Money-Laundering, Controlled
Delivery, Safety Inspection Protocol, and Prosecution-Level 2
Atty. Palmiery presented the module on Introduction to Controlled delivery (attached as Annex
I). Thereafter, Mr. Mark Martinez of TK presented the module on Introduction to Anti-Money
Laundering (attached as Annex J) and Ms. Jaemy Villanueva of TK presented the module on
9
Safety Inspection Protocol (attached as Annex K). Atty. Rolando Recto of TK presented the
module on Prosecution of Wildlife Cases-Level 2 (attached as Annex L). Afterwards, Atty.
Ronely Sheen, Executive Director of TK and Team Leader of Component 2, presented the
Calendar of Activities of TK for Quarter 4 of 2020 (attached as Annex M).
1.7 Open Forum
Dr. Caleda asked if the results of the evaluations presented by TK are based on 100% feedback
of participants. Atty. Palmiery answered no.
Atty. Camilo Garcia, Chief of the Legal Research and Opinion Division of the DENR Legal
Affairs Service, asked if the Training for the Prosecution of Wildlife Cases is only for lawyers
and if more DENR lawyers can be included since, based on the design, only two participants
will be invited per office.(Annex L). Atty. Sheen answered the activity will first cover the
Project sites, but there are plans to cover all the regions beyond the scope of the Project. Atty.
Tenazas agreed and added that BMB-WRD is already working on this.
Prof. Dimalibot asked if she can attend the Training Course on Basic Wildlife Law
Enforcement (BWLE). Atty. Sheen answered yes and added that she will send the link to the
webinar.
Regarding the module on Prosecution of Wildlife Cases (Level 2), Dr. Caleda clarified if it is
the existing modules (with new inputs) that will be delivered to the trainees. Atty. Sheen
answered that for already existing modules, TK will use them and will update and /or enhance,
as necessary. She added that there are two to three topics without modules and that TK will
develop these (e.g. Financial Investigation in the Valuation of Wildlife).
Dr. Esteven Toledo, BMB-WRD, asked how the port assessment will be conducted. Atty.
Sheen answered that it will be conducted online though Zoom. The assessment will be
conducted over four days using the Port Monitoring and Anti-Trafficking Evaluation
(PortMATE) tool customized for the Philippine situation. The assessment will be conducted in
partnership with the UNDP/GEF Project on Reducing Maritime Trafficking of Wildlife
between Africa and Asia.
1.8 Self-paced E-Modules – Offline Content and Storyboard
Ms. Cristina Velez, Knowledge and Communications Specialist of the Project, presented
updates on the development of self-paced e-learning modules of the BWLE Training
Course (attached as Annex N).
1.9 Open Forum
Dr. Ricciardi, Environmental Specialist for ADB, asked the following questions through the
Zoom chat function:
1. How many modules will be converted in this format?
2. Are there sufficient resources to include other topics that may be identified
(question directed to BMB)?
10
3. How often they will need to be updated and how much is the cost (in %) compared
with doing them from scratch.
For the first question, Ms. Velez answered that there are seven courses and 18 modules and
referred to slide 8 of Annex J. For the second question, Atty. Tenazas answered that DENR-
BMB will need to see the other modules first before she can provide a response. For the third
question, Ms. Velez answered that for the laws, the modules need to be changed once the laws
are changed, which does not happen too often. In addition, she added that the courses can be
updated centrally, which makes it easier to update. She added that the bulk of the costs is
usually for building the system and developing the courses. Beyond that, the cost will be in
maintaining subscription for the Learning Management System (LMS).
Ms. Nancy Corpuz, Division Chief of BMB- Biodiversity Policy and Knowledge Management
Division (BPKMD), commented that the Bureau can include the costs for its forward estimates
and added that it is important to cascade the system to DENR field offices once developed.
Ms. Weng Bolinas of BMB-BPKMD asked if the modules will be translated into local
languages, if needed or requested. Ms. Velez answered that, it will not be translated locally as
it is not included in the budget. She added that it will depend on the availability of budget.
On content vetting, Dr. Caleda asked if there is peer review included in the process. Ms. Velez
answered that it is up to the Project and DENR-BMB but that they would prefer conducting the
peer review before building the system. Dr. Caleda asked Ms. Velez to share with the TWG
the content template/script for comments.

2.1 Welcome, Rollcall, Activity Flow, and Recap
AD Ortiz officially called the meeting to order at 10:00 A.M. All members of the Technical
Working Group were present. A total of 21 participants attended the meeting, composed of all
TWG members or their representatives, firms and consultants, PMU, and representatives from
ADB. The list of attendees is attached as Annex O.
AD Ortiz started Day 2 of the 4th TWG Meeting by going through the program of the meeting
(attached as Annex P) and by providing a recap of the highlights of Day 1 of the 4th TWG
Meeting (attached as Annex Q). No questions were raised.
2.2 Updates on Component 3 Outputs
Dr. Caleda presented an update of the accomplishments for Component 3 (attached as Annex
R). Thereafter, NIRAS Asia Manila Inc. (NIRAS) reported on the status of the pre-campaign
consumer report, the CEPA Strategy and Plan and audience-segmented CEPA materials, the
Economic Valuations Study, and upcoming calendar of activities
2.3 Presentation of Pre-campaign Consumer Research Report, CEPA
Strategy and Plan and audience-segmented CEPA Materials, Updates on
Economic Valuation, and Calendar of Activities
Ms. Mary Joanne Trivino of NIRAS, presented the updates on the pre-campaign consumer
research (attached as Annex S). Afterwards, Mr. Gregg Yan presented updates on the Overall
CEPA Strategy and Plan and draft audience-segmented CEPA Material (attached as Annex T)
and Dr. Agustin Arcenas presented the updates on the Economic Valuation Study (attached as
Annex U). Thereafter, Ms. Dominique Tabora, NIRAS Team Leader, presented the upcoming
activities and milestones for Component 3 (attached as Annex V).
2.4 Open Forum
Ms. Fischer expressed her concerns about the calendar of NIRAS as the post-campaign
consumer research is already scheduled from January to February 2021. She asked if the time
allotted will be sufficient to implement the CEPA Campaign as the pre-campaign consumer
report and CEPA Strategy and Plan for CARAGA is still pending completion.
Ms. Dominique Tabora, Team Leader for NIRAS, answered that the initial data gathering for
the CARAGA report (based on the nationwide survey) is already complete. The additional
special quota for CARAGA, however, is still ongoing. She added that they will soon start with
the social media campaign. She said, however, that because internet connection in CARAGA
is not as strong, the social media campaign will be geared towards Metro Manila and Cebu and
will run from mid-October to December 2020. Regarding the post-campaign scheduled from
January to February 2021, she said that the schedule includes the time for preparatory activities.
Actual surveys will start February 2021.
Ms. Trivino added that the results of the CARAGA special quota survey will be completed by
November. The key-information needed from the pre-campaign research that will inform the
13
CEPA Strategy will be ready seven days after completion of survey. She added that NIRAS
will be mindful in analyzing the results as the CEPA Campaign will have already started and
may have influence on the results.
Dr. Caleda asked if there is a way to fast-track the CARAGA special quota survey especially
since NIRAS is already starting their CEPA Campaign. Ms. Trivino answered that she will talk
with the 3rd party agency on how to fast-track the surveys.
Dr. Caleda echoed the concern regarding the timeline for the conduct of the post-campaign
consumer research and suggested that NIRAS revisit its calendar of activities. Ms. Tabora
agreed and reiterated that the schedule includes preparatory activities which takes a lot of time.
Ms. Fischer commented that the timeline for the implementation of the CEPA Campaign may
be too short given that it will be conducted during Christmas season and suggested that the
post-campaign study be moved.
Ms. Trivino answered that NIRAS will revisit the timeline while taking note of the concerns
raised (NIRAS Revised Schedule and Timeline attached as Annex W). She shared that based
on past studies they conducted, the reason to avoid implementation during Christmas is because
of the Christmas rush. She added that Christmas and New Year may not be as cluttered this
year given that there are still quarantine restrictions.
Regarding the CEPA Materials, Dr. Caleda suggested using e-commerce platforms (e.g.
Lazada, Shopee) to target non-committals, including putting ads to target those shopping for
Christmas gifts.
Mr. Gregg Yan of NIRAS answered that NIRAS has already considered the Christmas season
in their CEPA Plan and Strategy. He added that the ‘angle’ can be to give the ‘gift of life’ or
the ‘gift of freedom’ to the animals and provide alternative options to the shoppers.
Mr. Yan also answered the question posted by Dr. Caleda in the Zoom chat function on why
the use of digital screens in the CEPA Campaign is limited to only Cebu and Metro Manila.
He said that this is due to the lack of availability of digital screens in CARAGA. He asked the
attendees to let NIRAS know if there are digital screens in CARAGA so that this can be
explored.
Regarding the Economic Valuation Report, Dr. Caleda mentioned the interest of the National
Economic Development Authority (NEDA) for a policy brief or paper that will make the report
understandable to policy and decision makers. She added that the Project reported to the PSC
that there will be a presentation of the Economic Valuation Report to NEDA. Dr. Arcenas
asked when the presentation will be held. Dr. Caleda answered that it is tentatively set mid-
November and NIRAS will be informed once there is a fixed date. Dr. Arcenas said that NIRAS
can submit the final version of the report in two weeks (October 28, 2020).
