Kalahi CIDSS Region 8 conducted the Local Government Unit Workshop on Community-Driven Development Harmonization cum Barangay Sub-Project Development Training held February 26-28, 2019 at Milka Hotel in Tacloban City.

The three-day activity involved key management staff and the Barangay Sub-Project Management Committee, in the vision of ensuring the best return on the investment in the volunteer program.

During the training, it was discussed how the Community Driven Development works, contribute to the development of the communities, and establish accountability in the involvement of different partners or stakeholders during implementation. It also aims to identify the necessary mitigation in the environmental and social management plan for some risks in their sub-project.

The activity ensures that the Barangay Subproject Management Committee chairpersons of Kalahi CIDSS of LGU-led municipalities have demonstrated skills and knowledge on basic project management, sustainability mechanisms and development, which will translate into efficient and effective leadership and management in their barangay’s subproject implementation and operation.
