This casebook features experience-based tenets that promote organizational and program sustainability. It brings to focus the experience of the Philippines-Canada Local Government Program of Caraga (LGSP-X111) and its partners as they define and work towards ensuring that the breakthroughs they have achieved in local development, local governance, gender mainstreaming and environment management are sustained in the region. The challenges of ensuring sustainability are manifold thus needing concrete and strategic response across all aspects of organizational life. This message unfolds in the stories of LGSP-X111 and its academic-based sustainability partners, namely the Development Center for Local Governance and Integrative Studies (DCLG-IS), the Caraga Women's Resource Center (CWRC), the Caraga Center for Environmental Studies and Management (CCESM), and the Caraga LGSP Resource Partnership (LRP). Managers, development workers, local governance facilitators and students of organizational psychology will find that this casebook makes for interesting reading.
