How we work

The 'Brain Gain' development scheme

Picture
Poverty Alleviation
Our founding concept is entitled “From Brain Drain to Brain Gain” which means to bring home not only the hard-earned savings but also technologies and skills learned abroad and invest it in service of local development. ​

Economic sustainability
For us, being sustainable means having permanent access to basic facilities and the ability to generate own income for many years to come. Sustainable interventions are ones that enable people to support themselves even after an intervention. In the past five years, PASALI has contributed to the generation of livelihoods for fisher folk, farmer households, and indigenous people groups. 
Food Security
We conduct technology transfer of sustainable rice production through System of Rice Intensification (SRI) to farmers.

Environmental Sustainability: Climate change mitigation
In Palimbang, farmers are taught a new system of planting rice called SRI that use less water, seeds, and without depending on extremely expensive chemical fertilizer, pesticides and herbicides. Unlike the conventional way of farming, SRI mitigates climate change because rice paddies are not flooded constantly; thus, producing less methane which contributes to global warming.

Social Protection & Conflict Transformation

In General Santos 
In a former conflict ridden area of Palimbang, Pasali contributes to peace by allowing its interventions to touch on issues on discrimination, land ownership, debt, lack of economic means (money, job)- all root causes of conflict.



Appropriate Technology

At the core of the 'brain gain concept' lies the transfer of technology and mechanical skills. Pasali designs, fabricates, and installs tools that allow remote rural communities to have access to clean water, increase farm production, and energy.
​

Extension Service Provider

ATI taps the services of the external service providers to improve and hasten the delivery of extension services of the DA and to provide opportunities and wider participation of the private sector in the conduct of agricultural extension services.
