Summary 
------- 
 
1. There continues to be no evidence of AI in the Philippines.  Post 
continues to monitor the situation within the country and the 
region, coordinates with other donors, and provides technical 
assistance to the GRP in four key areas: a) pandemic preparedness 
planning, b) mass communication and education campaigns, c) piloting 
of early warning systems at the community level in select areas, and 
d) leveraging private sector resources for preparedness efforts. 
End Summary. 
 
-------------------------- 
AI Preparedness Activities 
-------------------------- 
 
2. The National AI Task Force (NAITF), led by the Department of 
Health and Department of Agriculture/Bureau of Animal Industries 
(DA/BAI),   completed a series of eight workshops from April to July 
2006 to develop Preparedness and Response Plans in 97 target 
municipalities spread through 37 Provinces in critical areas based 
on migratory bird fly-way zones.  NAITF presented the plans at a 
forum attended by Provincial Governors and Administrators on August 
31, 2006.  The forum resulted in a draft resolution enjoining all 
provinces to set in motion integrated animal and human preparedness 
and response plans for AI. The draft resolution will be ratified by 
the League of Provinces of the Philippines to secure local level 
commitment for testing and diagnosis, public information campaigns, 
training and budget support to outbreak response measures. 
 
3. Community-level information, education and communication (IEC) 
campaigns on prevention practices targeting local authorities and 
the general public, with special attention to backyard poultry 
owners, are being implemented in the identified high risk areas, 
including border provinces in Mindanao that trade heavily with H5N1 
endemic countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia.  IEC materials 
have been translated into five local dialects including three local 
dialects in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) to reach 
an estimated population of over four million people in the critical 
areas. 
 
4. The NAITF, with technical support from USAID-supported NGOs, 
CARE/Philippines and ACDI/VOCA, is developing early warning systems 
to enable high-risk communities manage the risks associated with 
bird flu at the barangay (neighborhood) level.  Two community-level 
tabletop simulation exercises involving community and municipal 
level officers have occurred in a province in Mindanao with critical 
wetlands areas.  The tabletop exercises are a significant milestone 
in developing a reliable and functional reporting system at the 
community level.  The simulations also enabled the DOH and DA to map 
out initial responses of the community such as contact tracing and 
identification of possible quarantine areas. 
 
5. The Avian and Pandemic influenza Network (AI Network), composed 
of civil society and private organizations, have started training 
programs and public information activities.  A consultation/ 
planning workshop is planned in mid September to prioritize 
financing gaps and to identify areas for public-private 
partnership.

Other donor support 
------------------- 
 
6. More recent efforts from other donors include assistance from New 
Zealand and the Japan Trust Fund through the Food and Agricultural 
Organization for strengthening laboratories and testing and 
diagnostic capacities.  New Zealand has supported hygiene training 
of school teachers and activities to leverage the contribution of 
civil society organizations.  The Australian Agency for 
International Development has also provided assistance to strengthen 
hospital preparedness for pandemic influenza including commodity 
support.  The Asian Development Bank is currently financing a 
project to improve epidemiological surveillance.

Comment

7. Local government units in the Philippines, with guidance from 
their national government counterparts, have given substantive 
effort to formulate AI preparedness plans.  The accomplishments to 
date will not be sustained without continued advocacy and technical 
support especially in promoting awareness, and ensuring standards 
and readiness at all levels.  Continued assistance from the US 
Government is critical to leverage and mobilize required in-country 
resources for the plans to be implemented effectively.  JONES
