Abstract

This paper analyzes the Quezon City Government's sustainable development initiatives in terms of both enablers and barriers and establishes their significant relationships and effects to policy outcomes as well. Quezon City is a highly urbanized city located in the Philippine metropolitan capital known for its sustainable development initiatives and ordinances in the Philippines. Adhering to the logic model evaluation of sustainability conceptual framework, and employing a combination of purposive informant surveys and semi-structured interviews, the paper reveals some cross-cutting predictors and significant determinants of sustainable development programs, especially for programs that need to be sustained before they yield impact. Finally, the paper highlights its main contributions to sustainable development studies, namely, the utilization of the logic evaluation model sustainability framework for local governance as an ontological argument, employment of a mixed method as an epistemological tool, and the conduct of empirical assessment supported and reinforced by various stakeholder's views and discourses.
