bionceptual Framework As depicted in Figure 3, the conceptual framework for this study is derived by adapting and modifying the Logical Framework Approach (LFA) Framework, developed by the US. Agency for International Development (USAID) in 1969. This framework serves as the foundation for assessing and improving the implementation of the National Greening Program (NGP) in Bayog, Zamboanga del Sur, with a focus on achieving sustainable environmental conservation, community development, and economic growth. The study encompasses three specific objectives. Firstly, it aims to assess the level of NGP implementation in Bayog, Zamboanga del Sur in terms of economy, efficiency, and effectiveness. To achieve this objective, a comprehensive literature review will be conducted, examining NGP implementation, policy documents, and relevant studies. Additionally, primary data will be collected through surveys and Key Informant Interviews (Kll) with NGP implementers in the area. These activities will provide valuable insights into the level of NGP implementation, enabling a thorough evaluation of its performance in relation to economy, efficiency, and effectiveness. To effectively assess the NGP implementation, a set of indicators has been identified. These indicators encompass factors such as the allocation of financial resources, the cost effectiveness of NGP activities, economic benefits generated for local communities, resource utilization, timeliness of project implementation, coordination among NGP implementers and stakeholders, achievements in reforestation and land rehabilitation, environmental impact, and community engagement and participation. These indicators will serve as measurable criteria for evaluating the level of NGP implementation in the identified areas. The second objective of the study is to identify the problems encountered by NGP implementers in Bayog, Zamboanga del Sur during program implementation. To address this objective, primary data will be collected through surveys and Key Informant Interviews (KII). This will enable a comprehensive understanding of the specific challenges and issues faced by NGP implementers, providing valuable insights for further analysis and improvement. The final objective is to propose measures and recommendations for addressing the identified problems and improving NGP implementation in Bayog, Zamboanga del Sur. By analyzing the collected data, understanding stakeholders perspectives, and drawing upon the findings, evidence-based recommendations and measures will be developed. These recommendations will be focused on improving the economy, effectiveness, efficiency, and overall outcomes of the NGP implementation. In summary, the conceptual framework integrates the adaptation and modification of the LFA Framework with the objectives, activities, and indicators to guide the assessment and improvement of NGP implementation in Bayog, Zamboanga del Sur. Through a systematic and structured approach, the study aims to contribute to sustainable environmental conservation, community development, and economic growth in the area. Figure 3.
