Jopie is interviewing a man while his family looks on.  Most homes did not have running water, instead they got water out of the pumps like the one in the picture.  Conducting the interviews with an audience created interesting challenges.

In addition to interviews, we conducted some focus groups to gain a clearer idea about the individual communities and its residents.  These people participated in one of those focus groups.

This is a photo of one of the main "roads" down the middle of the community in Bataan Province.  You can see rice being dried on the neighborhood basketball court.  The male residents of this community were subsistence fishermen and their wives often dried the fish in preparation for selling at the local market.

This is the beach that the "road" in the picture above leads to. You can see the "bangkas" that the fisherman used to fish.  These boats were rarely owned by the fisherman, rather he had to rent it from a local owner and pay the owner a large percentage of the daily catch (Bataan).
