dc.description.abstractThe Bancagan Bamboo Handicraft is a local livelihood rooted in the rich cultural and natural resources of Barangay Bancagan, Naguilian, La Union. This traditional craft serves as both a source of income and a symbol of heritage for local weavers. The study determined the socio-economic contributions of Bancagan bamboo handicraft to the lives of its weavers, and the initiatives implemented by the LGU for the sustainability of the Bancagan Bamboo Handicraft. The research utilized survey questionnaires to gather data from selected bamboo weavers in Bancagan. Descriptive statistics, including frequency and percentage, were used to analyze the findings. The study reveals that Bancagan Bamboo Handicraft plays a significant role in sustaining the livelihood of the weavers by providing economic support and empowering them socially through skills development and cultural pride. The study finds that the LGU efforts have advanced the weaving industry; however, it also reveals a lack of regular technical training and assistance for product labeling and branding strategies. To address these issues, a policy brief was developed recommending programs for regular technical training, branding, and labeling to enhance their weaving skills.
