social welfare and development forum
SWD Form is an activity that provides a venue for discussion on matters of social welfare and development which includes policy issues and concerns, research studies, SWD Legislations, technical sharing, issues and trends on national development plans and international commitments, and orientation on national projects for the DSWD
The need for continuing enhancement of knowledge and skills of Social Welfare and Development (SWD) stakeholders as well as actualizing opportunities for collaboration and alliance building must be addressed by the DSWD as the lead agency on social welfare and development. Executive Order No. 15 Series of 2002 provided the legal mandate for DSWD to create opportunities for capacity building so that intermediaries will be able to effectively and efficiently deliver SWD programs and services as well as optimize the use of resources from various organizations. It is therefore imperative that DSWD establishes and/or strengthens mechanisms, e.g. SWD Forum, for technical assistance/information and communication with relevant partners to keep them abreast and up to date will all the developments in the sector.
