Actual (reported)This study aims to evaluate the socioeconomic and health impacts of nursing-led livelihood programs among indigenous women in Sitio Monicayo, Pampanga, Philippines. The programs, initiated in 2016, include bracelet making, rag making, and liquid dishwashing. Using an explanatory sequential mixed methods design, Phase 1 surveys Aeta women to assess changes in household income, employment, and six domains: Program Benefits, Facilitation, Self-Confidence, Resilience, Future Intentions, and Barriers. Nonparametric analyses are used to examine program outcomes. Phase 2 involves semi-structured interviews with a subset of participants to contextualize quantitative results, focusing on nutrition, stress reduction, access to medicines, preventive care, and caregiving. Integration through joint displays is planned to highlight alignment and discordance between survey scores and lived experiences. The study seeks to explore the role of nursing-led livelihood interventions in addressing both economic empowerment and social determinants of health, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals on poverty, good health and well-being, and decent work.
