Abstract

Project SIKKAP aimed to tackle economic challenges and promote sustainability, involving 25 participants, with 48% of parents and 16% of students actively engaged in income-generating activities through plant cultivation. While 64% of active participants showed high awareness of eco-friendly practices, a notable portion of non-active participants lacked engagement, highlighting the need for additional support and alternative educational methods. The project documented significant financial outcomes, with profits from dish garden sales indicating the potential for eco-friendly ventures to enhance community livelihoods.

Project SIKKAP was initiated to address economic challenges while promoting sustainable practices

within the community. The project involved 25 participants, comprising a mix of parents and students. Among
these, 48% (12 active parents) and 16% (4 active students) actively participated in growing and selling plants,
demonstrating sustained engagement in income-generating activities. These individuals applied the skills they
learned in plant cultivation and product marketing, which contributed to enhancing their household income.
However, 24% of parent participants (6 non-active parents) and 12% of student participants (3 non-active
students) did not continue with the project due to personal circumstances. These challenges highlight the need
for additional support mechanisms to ensure higher retention and sustained participation, such as flexible
participation options or tailored interventions to address specific barriers.

Data collected throughout the project reveal that 64% of stakeholders who were actively engaged
demonstrated high awareness of eco-friendly practices, driven by their hands-on involvement. Conversely, 36%
of participants (primarily non-active parents and students) exhibited lower awareness due to their limited
engagement in practical activities. This disparity underscores the importance of sustained involvement for
effective learning and underscores the need for future interventions to re-engage fewer active participants
through alternative educational methods, such as follow-up workshops or peer mentorship

A critical component of this action research was the systematic documentation of Project SIKKAP’s
outcomes. This included tracking income generated, participant engagement, and the project’s broader impact
on both individual livelihoods and community well-being. The sale of 17 dish gardens yielded a total profit of
Php 4,180.00 from an initial capital investment of Php 1,178.00, showcasing the financial potential of eco-
friendly gardening ventures.

Through the documented experiences and lessons from this action research, Project SIKKAP can serve
as a replicable model for other community-based initiatives aimed at achieving sustainable, inclusive growth
