Knowledge Management (KM) Framework of the Department of Social welfare and Development (DSWD) highlights that knowledge is a key organizational resource that should be managed effectively (Administrative Order No. 17, series of 2011). Accordingly, there is a need to access, share, and exchange this knowledge to ensure that the goals of the Department are achieved. Employees must be encouraged to share knowledge and produce new ones so that they are equipped and capable to respond to the changing needs of clients and stakeholders.
With this, the Capacity Building Section of the DSWD Field Office VIII, organized the one-day Regional Knowledge Fair for Internal Staff through an online platform to provide the staff with awareness of the existing and new policies issued by the department.
This year, the topics are as follows:
- Launching: Compendium of DSWD FO8’s Good Practice Documentations along SWD Programs and Services Implementation to Intermediaries and Stakeholders
- Administrative Order No. 01, Series of 2018 – Functional Structure of DSWD Field Offices;
- Administrative Order No. 02, Series of 2024 – DSWD Strategic Plan 2024 – 2028;
- Administrative Order No. 04, Series of 2024 – FY 2024 Thrusts and Priorities;
- Food Stamp Program;
- Administrative Order No. 05, Series of 2024 or the DSWD Intellectual Property Policy;
- International Standard for Book Numbers – Registration and Application;
- Application for Continuing Professional Development Accreditation; and
- Good Practice Documentation: Knowledge Management Portal
The participants have learned about the recent policy issuances, technological tools and techniques that will equip them in responding to the changing needs of clients and stakeholders and also understand the current organizational directions and institutional development that the Department will undertake for an efficient and effective delivery of Social Welfare and Development services.
