Better future for PH agriculture

On September 5 to 6, I went with my thesis group to the Gawad Kalinga Enchanted Farm (GKEF) for our data gathering. It was my fourth visit to the place, and each time the experience left me in awe. Dubbing itself as the first farm village university in the world, a ‘Silicon Valley’ for social entrepreneurship, and a ‘Disneyland’ for social tourism, GKEF has built a thriving ecosystem of social enterprises through its efforts on social enterprise incubation.

We went to the farm with the intention of gathering as many respondents as we could. What we did not expect, however, was how openly the members of the community would welcome us.
