Exclusivity
>Silo Bridging rather than Silo-Busting

• Bureaucratic Protocols May Compromise Efficient Delivery

actualization needs

Join our small steps with a GLOBAL impact : A
Future Advocacy Center in UP- (A search of
solutions on for the best design)
Challenges in conceptualization, planning and
implementation:
- Lack of funds, “Nag-aabono”
- Too many students in 1 community
- Students raise their own funds
- Bureaucratic procedures
- Academic shift and schedule in the
community
- Most partnership do not have MOA
Enumerate the strategies to address these challenges,
highlighting (if any) UP policy support mechanisms that enable
these strategies.
- “Nag-aabono” (Funding Mechanisms)
- Negotiate schedule with
community/partners
- Some MOA (eg. with DSWD) are
being processed
Surface UP policy needs that may need to be discussed to
strengthen NSTP

- Fast track MOA process

- Revolving fund Creation/ Other Creative
Funding Means
- More NSTP facilitators to have smaller
class per community
