The 5th Philippine Human Development Report:
Peace, Human Security and Human Development in the Philippines

For decades, Philippines has experienced conflicts in many forms in the names of religion and political differences. Armed communist insurgents and Islamic secessionist groups continue to pose a challenge to peace, stability and the long-term development of the country.

The 5th Philippine Human Development Report (5th PHDR) sets out to explore the various dimensions and major sources of conflict in the country; analyze the current dynamics that may assist to resolve or aggravate conditions; and relate these to the concept of human development and

human security in the context of the country's development strategy.

The Report likewise presents the latest statistics on provincially disaggregated Human Development Indicators, Human Poverty Indicators, Gender-related Development Indicators,and Human Security Indicators. Based on these indicators, the Report will attempt to identify the provinces which are the "most peaceful and stable" as well as those that are "most vulnerable and at risk".

The theme of the 5th PHDR is Peace, Human Security and Human Development in the Philippines.

The 5th PHDR was launched last October in Manila and and in Davao in November 2005.
