 | | Transformations The original concept of CFTU as a loose network of interinstitutional and interpersonal collaborations did not materialize, at least not to the extent it was initially envisioned. |
 | | As a consequence, those CFTU member organizations that could not or chose not to play a role in Matalom because of their location, mandate or other factors were effectively marginalized in CFTU. |
 | | Four elements, expanded on below, are basic to CFTU operations: 1) themes that encourage different mixes of participation and collaboration, 2) geographically shared interest in the central region of the Philippines, i.e., largely the Visayas, 3) accommodation of the varied perspectives of NGOs and research institutions, and 4) appropriate analytical frameworks. |
