Session 2
Commonalities, Conditions & Characteristics of PHE
Projects
1
Session Objectives
• Define the continuum of integrated programming approaches and their relative advantages and disadvantages.
• Establish the basic rationale for doing integrated projects (cross-sector vs. single sector projects)
2
Session Overview
• Introduction to PHE• Reasons for Integration• Types of Integration• Conditions Supporting Integration• Achieving Integration

What is PHE?DEFINITION: • A community development model that links
population, health, and environment (PHE) factors and supports cross-sectoral collaboration and coordination, particularly in biodiversity-rich areas (BALANCED)
• Linkage, within a community or group of communities, of natural resource management or similar environmental activities and the improvement of reproductive health, always including but not limited to provision of family planning services (Engelman)
5
What is PHE?P = Reproductive health & family planningH = Water, sanitation, malaria, HIV/AIDS, MCH E = Natural resource management, biodiversity
conservation, fisheries management, eco-agriculture
Amenable to other sectors
+E = Education (non-formal & formal) Energy (fuel efficient smokeless stoves, biogas) Eco-tourism, sustainable tourism development Enterprise/livelihood development

Session Overview

7
Reasons for Integration
• Over 1.1 billion people worldwide live in biodiversity-rich areas
• Population growth in hotspots is nearly 40 percent greater than globally
8
Reasons for Integration
• Integrated lives• Address root causes• Enhance relationship• Access different communities• Economic efficiencies• Build on existing frameworks• Broader community
participation• Synergy from combination
9
Synergy from Combination
• Social systems & ecosystems are interrelated and linked
• Whatever effects one system, affects the other
• Small improvements in either system reinforce each other
• To turn around both systems from degradation to health
Linked Eco-Social System Concept (G.G. Marten)

11
Types of Integration
• Parallel• Coordinated• Cross-sectoral (Bridge)• Integrated (Symbiotic)
Parallel Coordinated Cross-sectoral(Bridge)
Integrated(Symbiotic)
12
Types of Integration• Parallel: projects conducted in a single area
without coordination among organizations
• Coordinated: projects conducted in the same area with some level of coordination
• Cross-sectoral: projects involving several sectors that are conceptually linked
• Integrated: projects involving several sectors that are conceptually and operationally linked 13

14
Policy Context
• Food security• Climate change• Gender• HIV/AIDS
prevention• Disaster mitigation• Resource
governance
15
Site Context• Need of intervention
– PHE is more of a prevention approach than rehabilitation
• Desire of community to participate – and its indigenous knowledge and practices regarding
conservation and health
• Biological value – Ecologically significant area where population dynamics
pose threats to the flow of ecosystems services/goods vital to human populations
• Socioeconomic criteria– Level of organization in community, level of poverty,
level of education and literacy, access to information
• Physical criteria– Distribution of community & access to infrastructure

17
Achieving Integration
• Conceptual Integration• Field Integration• Community Involvement• PHE Partnerships• Mobilizing Resources• Planning Ahead

TEAM TASK – Assessing Organizational Capacity
1. Review flow chart “General Steps in Creating a PHE Project”. Assess your organization’s capacity:
• Which steps (up to 3) has your organization met with success?
• Which steps (up to 3) posed the most challenge? • Which steps (up to 3) does your organization
have very little or no experience?2. Based on the color-code below, use the colored
dots to show your results by placing each dot next to the appropriate step on the wall chart. Write your organization’s name or acronym next to each of your posted dots.
Success = green; Challenge = redLittle/no experience = yellow
Time: 20 minutes 19
