Summary, etc. This study, Coal for Change, focused on the small-scale farmer community, such as the Coconut Farmers from Timpas, Panitan, Capiz, with the objective of widening their livelihood opportunities through a charcoal-making program. The study employed a phenomenological research approach to involve the community in the research process and bring out social changes. Researchers collaborated with a charcoal-expert referred by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), who offered his expertise in the field and recommendations on equipment and materials. The study conducted an augmented livelihood program, through convincing participants to transform their excess agricultural waste into a potential source of additional income and livelihood opportunity. In order to gather comprehensive data on the effectiveness of the intervention, face-to-face and one-on-one interviews were mainly utilized. Thematic analysis was employed as the analysis tool for the qualitative data. Additionally, the findings suggest that the proposed intervention, such as the augmented livelihood program was indeed effective in improving the livelihood of farming communities, particularly with regards to livelihood opportunity and potential economic development. Numerous perceptions were recorded and collected from each of the participants, which in return shed light to their experiences with regards to the livelihood problems they encounter, as well as the role of excess coconut shells in improving their livelihood. Overall, this study offers insights into the importance of collaboration with experts, direct involvement with the community through augmented livelihood programs, and the effectiveness of a purely qualitative research approach.
