Abstract
The lush natural resources of Palawan are suffering from anthropogenic pressures on wildlife species and their habitat. This study determines on how Republic Act 9147 is effectively implemented in the province of Palawan through environmental governance. The different factors influencing the enforcement of wildlife conservation in relation to collaborative governance with the participation of different stakeholders were identified. Moreover, the study examines how the co-production of environmental services contributed in the enforcement of the Wildlife Act in the Province of Palawan following Ostroms (1996) Collective Action Framework. A policy implementation effectiveness assessment tool defining the indicators was utilized with the PCSDS, DA-BFAR, and DENR-PENRO as respondents. In addition, the views of the PCSD-ENRC members were collected as key informants. The results showed that PCSD, DENR, and DA-BFAR have excellently implemented the provisions of the Act through efficient decision making processes. Collaborations in the creation of resolutions/agreements helped the partner institutions to obtain all threshold categories together with the PCSD based on their respective jurisdictional mandate in Palawan. Ostroms operational choices in 1990 were present in collective choices through partner implementers such as the DENR and DA-BFAR that continuously exercised their respective national mandate in collaboration with the PCSDS. Regulatory and enforcement collaborations among institutions have been recognized in their respective contributions in public education, compliance to permitting, surveillance, apprehension, and monitoring. The collaboration and participation of the communities has validated Ostroms idea in 1996 for the thought on the importance of citizen participation and involvement for a desirable outcome. The ability to undertake collective decision-making of LGU, affiliated institutions, and communities is not just a management tool but an essential process for food security in wildlife resources and ensure its survival was enhanced by Ostrom in 2000. Multi-partite plans of actions for the protection of habitats are similar to Ostroms work in 1996 which shows the designing of institutional management that help induce successful co-productive strategies. Information dissemination is shown to be continuous through utilization of different media, and with the advances of technology, social media is also included. The management planning, public education and enforcement collaboration were strategically conducted toward community's mutual benefit. In 2000, Ostrom emphasized contractual relationships through wildlife enforcement groups are examples of collaboration that reiterates mutual trust as proven by Ostrom last 2000. Human capital for wildlife conservation is formed consciously through education and training to become Wildlife Enforcement Officers which stressed the work of
