are the receiving mechanisms; thus, asset reform programs also often support the formation and strengthening of people’s organizations (POs). Resource governance and resource management system. Asset reform can shift power relations between people, communities and institutions, especially in the governance and management of land and resources. According to FAO (2007), land/resource governance refers to “the rules, processes and structures through which decisions are made about access to land and its use, the manner in which the decisions are implemented and enforced, and the way that competing interests in land are managed.” As such, resource governance involves three key factors: (1) a set of rules, processes and structures that define the ways by which property rights are defined, exchanged and transformed; (2) public oversight over resource use, management and enforcement; and, (3) systems of dispute resolution and conflict management. Thus, one important factor included in asset reforms is the effective representation and participation of “beneficiaries” in decision-making bodies and processes. These may include representation in specific bodies – e.g., the Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Councils (FARMCs) created under the PFC. These may also include participation in the formulation of local plans – e.g., Comprehensive Land Use Plans of municipal governments, or the formulation of Ancestral Domain Sustainable Development and Protection Plans (ADSDPPs) by indigenous peoples.
