Let’s Learn
Background of the Sustainable Development Goals 
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the
Global Goals, were adopted by all United Nations Member States in
2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the
planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by
2030.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were born at the
United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development in Rio de
Janeiro in 2012. The objective was to produce a set of universal
goals that meet the urgent environmental, political and economic
challenges facing our world.
 The SDGs replace the Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs), which started a global effort in 2000 to tackle
poverty. The MDGs established measurable, universally-
agreed objectives for tackling extreme poverty and hunger,
preventing deadly diseases, and expanding primary
education to all children, among other development
priorities.
The legacy and achievements of the MDGs provide
valuable lessons and experience to begin work on the new
goals. But for millions of people around the world the job
remains unfinished. The SDGs are an urgent call to shift
the world onto a more sustainable path.
 The SDGs are an intrepid commitment to
finish what has been started, and tackle some
of the more pressing challenges facing the
world today. All 17 Goals interconnect,
meaning success in one affects success for
others.

Let’s Learn
One existing government program which helps the Philippine government fulfill its
commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals for the people is the Pantawid Pamilyang
Pilipino Program (4Ps).
The Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) is a human development measure of the
national government that provides conditional cash grants to the poorest of the poor, to improve
the health, nutrition and the education of children aged 0-18. The Department of Social Welfare
and Development (DSWD) is the lead government agency of the 4Ps.
The 4Ps has dual objectives as the flagship poverty alleviation program of the Aquino
administration: (1) social assistance, giving monetary support to extremely poor families to
respond to their immediate needs; and (2) social development, breaking the intergenerational
poverty cycle by investing in the health and education of poor children through programs such
as: health check-ups for pregnant women and children aged 0 to 5; deworming of
schoolchildren aged 6 to 14; enrollment of children in daycare, elementary, and secondary
schools; and family development sessions.
In partnership with the Commission on Higher Education, the Department of Labor and Employment,
and the Philippine Association of State Universities and Colleges, 4Ps has enrolled 36,003 beneficiaries in
state universities and colleges as of June 2015. Additionally, in partnership with PhilHealth, 4Ps has
covered 4.4 million beneficiaries under the National Health Insurance Program.
Let’s Study and Analyze These
 
To learn more about the 4Ps, read the article entitled, “New law
institutionalizes 4Ps” by Pia Ranada found in this site
https://www.rappler.com/nation/231288-new-law-institutionalizes-pantawid-

reading the article. Write your answers on a whole sheet of paper.
Guide Questions:
1. The Republic Act No. 11310 is also known as __________________________.
2. The 4Ps was introduced during the administration of President _________.
3. Give reasons why 4Ps should be implemented every year, under all future
Presidents?
4. What are the four conditional cash transfer schemes of 4Ps?
5. Why do 4Ps beneficiaries need to fulfill the conditions of the program?

SDGs

Let’s Learn

Now that you have knowledge about SDGs for the planet, let us
identify some programs from government and non-government
organizations that support the implementation of the SDGs.
For Clean Water and Sanitation - Philippine Center for Water and
Sanitation is a non-stock, non-profit nongovernment organization.
PCWS promotes sustainable water and sanitation programs through
capacity building approaches. It works to improve the water supply,
sanitation and hygiene situation of the poorest communities in the
Philippines. Engineers of PCWS work with communities in
developing low cost water supply and sanitation technology options,
thereby enhancing local initiatives leading to benefits in health and
livelihood.
For Responsible Consumption and Production – The population of
the Philippines stands at roughly 102 million and 27 million of this
number live below poverty line. Moreover, 13.5 million of the
economically poor are unable to eat three times a day. This challenge
has led WWF(World Wide Fund for Nature)-Philippines (NGO) to
champion the concepts of sustainable consumption and production
as key drivers of achieving balance between the socio-economic
growth of the country as well as the protection of our natural
resources and food security. With The Sustainable Diner project,
WWF-Philippines hopes to lessen food wastage and contributes to
the improvement of the implementation of sustainable consumption
and production processes in the foodservice sector. The project aims
to engage the government, food service businesses, and consumers
in promoting sustainable dining practices and in making the
Philippines’ food service industry more environmentally friendly.
 For Climate Action and Life on Land - Deforestation is a major
driver of biodiversity loss in the Philippines. Between 1934 and
1990, the country lost 10.9 million hectares of forest cover. The
National Greening Program (NGP) established through a Presidential
Executive Order in 2011, promotes reforestation, reduces poverty,
promotes food security, creates alternative livelihoods and enhances
climate change mitigation and adaptation. The NGP has successfully
reforested over 1.91 million hectares of area and planted over 1.5
billion seedlings. This best practice highlights the key achievements
of the NGP, and how it successfully contributes in achieving
Philippine’s National Biodiversity Targets related to reforestation and
climate change mitigation and adaptation. The NGP also successfully
contributes to Philippines’ international commitment under the U.N.
SDG13 (Climate Action) and U.N. SDG 15 (Life on Land)
 For Life Below Water - Marine species conservation and
protection is the focus of the rehabilitation of Manila Bay
according to Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (DENR). Secretary Roy A. Cimatu said in a
statement that the government is keen to have Manila Bay
restored to its traditional use as a fishing ground and
reinstated as a vital wetland area. Together with other
government agencies and local government units, the DENR
launched the massive cleanup and rehabilitation of Manila
Bay on January 27, 2019. According to Cimatu, World
Wildlife Day 2019 with the theme “Life Below Water: For Life and
Planet,” and the Manila Bay rehabilitation is aligned to SDG 14 (Life Below Water)
