In Collaboration With

THE ATENEO CENTER FOR SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP (ACSENT) 

OFFICIALLY INVITE YOU TO SEND AN ABSTRACT PROPOSAL FOR THE FIRST ROUND OF CALL FOR PAPERS ON SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP

TOPIC: SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP FOR INCLUSIVE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN THE PHILIPPINES AND SOUTHEAST ASIA: LEVERAGING SOCIAL, POLITICAL AND BUSINESS NETWORKS TO PROMOTE HYBRID VALUE-CHAIN APPROACHES

Abstract 

Over the past years, inclusive development in the Philippines has exhibited protracted growth as poverty incidence continues to remain high in paradox with the reported economic advance. Lila Ramos Shahani of the Philippine Daily Inquirer recently reported last December 10, 2011 that "From 2003 to 2009, the economy grew by an average of 4.8 percent. And yet, instead of decreasing with economic growth, the number of poor Filipinos actually burgeoned from 19.8 million to 23.1 million."

With the growing consensus to achieve higher annual growth rates and to effectively pursue inclusive growth and development among leaders and multi-stakeholder organizations in the country, there is an imperative to develop and implement strategies that promote "hybrid value chain" (HVC) approaches by leveraging social, political and business networks. This fundamental priority to effectively integrate marginalized sectors into the nation's development agenda can be realized by leveraging social, political and business networks to promote the creation of HVCs, thereby accelerating the trajectory of social, political and economic inclusion among the marginalized. Furthermore, these approaches could serve as a regional case model within Southeast Asia to further promote and scale-up the potential of a region-wide development agenda that caters to millions of marginalized sectors.
