Abstract

This community-based action research presents the implementation of the community-based reading program aimed at addressing the literacy needs of learners in Olongapo City. Utilizing the data from the stakeholders and barangay committees on education, the program identified learners requiring reading remediation and trained teacher education and communication students to deliver as implementers of the basic reading instructions. The action research initiative followed a structured framework: identifying needs, training implementers, program implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. The study emphasized the importance of evidence-based practices, community engagement, and reflective processes in developing sustainable educational interventions. It highlights the potential of targeted programs to foster academic growth and strengthen community partnerships in addressing the community's needs.

Abstract

This paper aims to present the community extension project of local higher education in Olongapo City, Philippines. The project entitled “Project Tubig Para sa Lahat (Water for All).” is a collaborative effort of the Gordon College – Community Extension Service Unit (GC –CESU) and different Non-Government Organizations (NGOs). The project's main objective is to provide a clean water storage for every household in a far-flung community in Olongapo City. This project is an initial step towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) mandate, in particular SDG 6. After a series of meetings, a strategic planning, and months of preparation, the project commenced. However, there were some challenges in the logistics due to the distance and terrain of the place. Nevertheless, the project was successful and turned over to the community as a sign of community engagement to all parties involved. The whole community has full access to the water tank project, and many households benefitted from the said project.
