Journal of Public Affairs and Development
The College of Public Affairs (CPAf) in the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) evolved as a unit of the University with the mandate to raise the bar of applied social science scholarship by developing transdisciplinary methods in the resolution of public issues such as food security, land reform and land use, governance, population, and education. The creation of CPAf in 1998 was prompted “by the need to attune academic programs in the pursuit of UP’s mission to promote nationalism and development in the face of profound changes occurring in the global environment.” In 2011, it was renamed as …

Lessons In Forging Sustainable Partnerships For Rice Self-Sufficiency In Calabarzon, Mimaropa, And Bicol Regions, Mayo Grace C. Amit, Nelson Jose Vincent B. Querijero
Journal of Public Affairs and Development
In an era of polyvocality and multi-stakeholder partnership, the authors trace the beginnings of an initiative of the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) and other program partners in addressing food security concern through a devolved agricultural extension service. Building on inter-organizational relations theory and partnership building, UPLB served as a partnership broker among the provincial governments, municipal governments, Department of Agriculture Regional Field Units, the local state universities and colleges, and civil society organizations. The paper documents the beginnings and nuances in brokering partnerships and cites the challenges associated with promoting transdisciplinarity in UPLB known to protect specialized …
Perspectives On The Use Of Grounded Theory In Social Development Studies, Ernesto L. Bumatay
Perspectives On The Use Of Grounded Theory In Social Development Studies, Ernesto L. Bumatay
Journal of Public Affairs and Development
This methodology paper introduces insights and perspectives on Grounded Theory (GT) as a social science research methodology. While GT emanates from the field of education, this paper shows that it can also be potentially used in development studies. The concept of the GT is first explained including the alternative views on its implementation. It has limited application in the Philippine context, and the current application that is cited is based on an education study called “Becoming Gift: A Classic Grounded Theory of Charism in Sectarian Institutions”. The end goal of the paper is to argue for the application of GT …

Journal of Public Affairs and Development
This paper traces the origin, evolution, and the propositions made by the framers of the transdisciplinary (TD) concept. It reviews the body of work of the various applications of the TD approach in the human sciences as in the twinning of medical sciences and the social sciences; biodiversity; agriculture sciences and development; and agriculture, food, and nutrition. Another application of the TD approach is discussed in the context of innovation systems for development studies with focus on sustainable community development and food security. The experiences of the College of Public Affairs and Development (CPAf), University of the Philippines Los Baños …

Charting The Science Of Public Affairs, Rogelio N. Tagarino
Journal of Public Affairs and Development
The necessary body of knowledge and methodology for the comprehensive appreciation and understanding of public affairs for policy decision-making have remained elusive. This paper clarifies the concept of public affairs as an area for building a body of knowledge into a distinct academic science and a valuable discipline for governance. It includes brief reviews of relevant literature on public affairs; a theoretical model of public affairs as a community system; an analytical framework for the science of public affairs; and some concluding insights for building a body of knowledge of a public affairs system.

An Assessment Of The Intellectual Property Rights Provisions Of The Convention On Biological Diversity And The World Trade Organization Agreements, Joel Dantes Adriano
Graduate Student's Output
The study assesses the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) provisions of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreements. It explains the conflict between the two agreements over IPR and attempts to answer how their differences may be best addressed.The study uses text interpretation, mainly hermeneutics which was originally used for theological studies but which is now an accepted method that emphasizes detailed examination of texts and meanings.The study finds three major areas where CBD and WTO IPR Agreements are not consistent with each other. These are through : (1) national sovereignty over biological resources, (2) …

Betaine As Partial Replacement Of Dl-Methionine Or Methionine Hydroxy Analogue In Broiler And Layer Diets, Celina Donna Querubin Bantoc
Graduate Student's Output
Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of betaine as partial replacement of dl-methionine (DLM) and methionine hydroxy analogue (MHA) on the performance of broilers and layers. In experiment 1, forty-five (45) individually caged 24-week old pullets were randomly assigned to five treatments following a completely randomized design (CRD). RAch treatment was replicated 9 times with one pullet per replicate. In experiment 2, three hundred (300) day-old broiler chicks were randomly distributed to five dietary treatments following a completely randomized design_ Each treatment was replicated six timOes with 10 birds per replicate. In the layer experiment, pullets fed methionine …
