Abstract

This study aims to determine the effects and perceived implications of one barangay project towards sustainability development. Also, the challenges encountered and its sustainability dimensions towards proposing a recommendation to explore the scalability and replicability for sustainable development. This study used a quantitative research design to evaluate the One Barangay One Project (OBOP) in Santiago City, focusing on its effects on sustainable development. Respondents included 100 project beneficiaries from 20 barangays and 20 project implementers. The research environment encompassed Santiago City, a commercial hub with significant agricultural activity. Data was collected through a validated survey instrument, which assessed respondent profiles, project effects, challenges, and sustainability outcomes using a 4-point Likert scale. The data analysis involved statistical methods such as frequency counts, percentage distribution, and mean scores to interpret the findings. Findings revealed that most beneficiaries are married, predominantly female, and have a high school education, with a majority engaged for three years. Implementers, primarily in rural areas, focus on food processing and industrial products. In addition, One Barangay One Product (OBOP) demonstrates positive outcomes in employment generation, product quality, and political climate, although improvements in quality of life are needed. Challenges in marketing, production, and operations persist despite financial stability. The project integrates environmental stewardship, economic viability, and social inclusivity, achieving notable successes.
