Abstract
This paper discusses some of the social, political, and economic pressures impinging upon the ecosystem components of Lake Danao in Ormoc City, Philippines. Conflicting objectives among individual residents and various stakeholders regarding the exploitation and utilization vis-a-vis the preservation and/or conservation of the lake s resources have led to a seeming lack of coherence in the approaches for the sustainable management of the ecosystem. There is also a need to review existing policies and examine the feasibility of accomodating a multiple-use framework in the management of Lake Danao.
