WELCOME
The year 2016 marks an important milestone for all of us partners in
development as we celebrate the 25th year anniversary of the Local
Government Code in the Philippines and reflect on how and where
we have gone and what we have achieved in terms of enabling
communities to be self reliant and effective partners in the attainment
of national goals.
The community-based monitoring system (CBMS) has been designed
and developed in 1992 as a complementary mechanism to respond to
the challenges of devolution, brought about by the local government
code, at the local level. Among the main challenges then that CBMS

This year’s conference with the theme “Pursuing
Meaningful Devolution through CBMS” is truly meaningful
as it coincides with the 25th year of the implementation
of the Local Government Code (LGC) which devolved to
local government units (LGUs) the prime responsibility of
the delivery of social services and public goods that were
previously under the domain of national government.
CBMS further strengthened the capacity of local
government units in addressing the needs of the
community. CBMS supported the increasing demand for
regular, up-to-date and disaggregated information essential for development
planning, policy making, program and project targeting. The importance of
having accurate information became even more pronounced in view of the need
to put to right investments the resources of local governments.
MEL SENEN S. SARMIENTO
Department Secretary
Through the years, as LGUs fully embrace devolved responsibilities, application
of CBMS has expanded to various aspects of local governance to include disaster
risk reduction and management, participatory planning and budgeting, and
achieving the millennium development goals (MDGs) and now the sustainable
development goals (SDGs).
Furthermore, the need for accurate information is underscored as the Philippines
commits to Open Government Partnership aimed at strengthening transparency
and accountability, and citizen participation in governance.
I commend the CBMS International Coordinating Network for sharing their
expertise and tools that will assist LGUs improve local governance and service
delivery, and contribute to poverty reduction, inclusive and sustainable economic
growth.

The DILG shall further strengthen its collaboration and partnership with CBMS
Network in capacitating LGUs to optimize benefits from the utilization of CBMS.
12TH CBMS PHILIPPINES NATIONAL CONFERENCE

National Economic and Development Authority
In September 2015, the Philippines along with 192 United
Nations Member States, unanimously adopted the 2030
Agenda for Sustainable Development -- a new framework to
guide development efforts between 2015 and 2030. The 2030
Agenda -- its 17 Goals and 169 targets -- are a universal set
of objectives that aim to stimulate people-centred and planetsensitive change. All the goals and targets are meant to be
met for all economic and social groupings.
DR. EMMANUEL ESGUERRA
Acting Socio-Economic
Planning Secretary
The implementation of the 2030 Agenda poses a great
challenge for us as the number of goals and targets has
significantly increased. As of December 2015, the number
of indicators tentatively agreed upon by the Inter-agency
and Expert Group on SDGs Indicators is currently at 229,
indicating a 281-percent increase from the 60 Millennium Development Goals
(MDG) indicators we have been monitoring. The 2030 Agenda calls for increased
support in strengthening data collection and capacity building in all Member States,
taking into consideration the gap in data collection and the unavailability of baseline
data for some of the targets. Furthermore, as the 2030 Agenda pledges that no
one will be left behind, there is also a demand for official statistics to be more
disaggregated, frequent, timely, and accessible.
Another challenge lies in localizing the SDGs. Localization does not stop at raising
awareness. Similar to MDG implementation, SDGs require a bottom-up approach
in implementation. Thus, mainstreaming guidelines and fully capacitating local
government units in planning, implementation, and monitoring of development
programs and projects are critical for success.
With these challenges ahead, the use of a Community-Based Monitoring System
(CBMS) can further complement and substantiate our existing statistical collection
systems. Through the years, CBMS has strengthened and empowered local
governments in providing capacities and resources towards evidence-based and
targeted policymaking. At the UN Summit, we have pushed for urgent action
to combat climate change and its impacts. CBMS Network’s recent initiative on
climate change vulnerability mapping is effective for disaster risk reduction-related
interventions.
NEDA commends the CBMS Network for its unwavering dedication and paramount
contribution in local development. We hope that this conference will be a head
start in our collective journey towards attaining the SDGs. We challenge the CBMS
Network, our national and local government partners, and civil society partners to
heed the call in making the 2030 Agenda a reality and to leave no one behind.

We are also transforming local governance by using technology
as part of our system to improve our capacities. From the penand-pencil way of data gathering, most of us are now inclined to
use tablets to make our work more organized and secure. This
development is also supported by the Department of Interior
and Local Government (DILG) by allowing the procurement of
tablets for CBMS in the Bottom-up Budgeting (BuB) for the municipalities and cities.
We hope to see the using technologies resonate in our other work – in health,
education, peace and order, disaster risk reduction and management, business
competitiveness, among other priority areas.
ALFONSO V. UMALI, JR.
Governor of Province of
Oriental Mindoro, and
National President
of ULAP
The trend is now very clear – the LGUs are now moving into evidence-informed
policy-making, veering away from the traditional politics of patronage.
In October 2016, we are going to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Local
Government Code. The Code, which was passed in 1991, has provided LGUs
autonomy, decentralization, and empowerment to better serve our communities.
It has also allowed for the strengthening of our competence LGUs to govern and
deliver public services in more participative and inclusive ways. Recently, we are
measured based on our performance of our mandates, with incentives put in place
for those LGUs that perform well. And CBMS is one of the manifestation that the
LGUs are making a big leap in local governance.
I would like to thank the CBMS International Network and its institutional partner
here in the Philippines, the De La Salle University-Angelo King Institute for
Economic and Business Studies, for providing the LGUs the necessary tools and
technical knowledge in the implementation of CBMS in our localities. Moreover,
I would also like to extend my gratitude and congratulations to the 75 provinces,
891 municipalities, 74 cities and 23,932 barangays that are currently implementing
CBMS, recognizing the importance of the program, and translating data information
into meaningful projects and programs for their constituents.
Union of Local Authorities of the Philippines
Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) is a proof that
we, Local Government Units (LGUs), are evolving to be more
efficient and effective in our work in the forefront of service
delivery to the Filipino people. Our use of CBMS is making our
programs more grounded and targeted, and we become more
appreciative of using scientifically and systematically-gathered
data to respond to real and felt needs in our communities.
May our efforts bring further improved capacities built among our local governments,
and greater impact to the communities we serve. Maraming salamat at mabuhay.

De La Salle University
BR. RAYMUNDO SUPLIDO, FSC, PhD
President
The passing of the Local Government Code of the
Philippines 25 years ago marks the beginning of a shift
in thinking and government policy. The State came to
recognize that in order to effectively implement national
policies and to enable our people to obtain their highest
good, local government units (LGUs) needed to be
more autonomous and responsive to broad economic
and environmental changes as well as dynamic on-theground conditions.
In line with this, De La Salle University noted the need to
support local government managers and policy makers.
Over the years, the University has encouraged the development of a CommunityBased Monitoring System to make sound, evidence-based decisions that will
maximize limited public resources and implement long-term policies on the local
government level.
Community-Based Monitoring Systems are becoming an integral part of the
decision making process in 15 pilot countries which include the Philippines.
DLSU’s Angelo King Institute for Economic and Business Studies, as part of the
CBMS Network since 2002, has been part of an international effort to advance,
refine, and institutionalize CBMS in the developing world.
As a Catholic institution guided by our founder’s mission to provide a Christian,
transformative, and empowering education, DLSU is proud to share its knowledge
base and research capabilities in order to positively impact the welfare of the
marginalized, not only within the Philippines, but also across the world.
May we all continue to respond to the challenge given to us by the Lord to pursue
greater and higher purposes as resources for Church and Nation.

Impact of Remittances on Youth Employment
Decisions and Entrepreneurship: Evidence from the Philippines
International migration has been an avenue for Filipinos to
seek employment abroad and the stock of Filipino migrants
has grown over the years despite the brain drain and other
negative psychosocial impacts the phenomenon might
make. With migration comes the flow of remittances which
has also grown. A significant question still remains: how
are remittances being used by families? Moreover, are
remittances being used to finance productive activities?
There has been a negative perception on remittances as
well that it is being used for leisure spending only, vices,
or generally-unproductive activities. This study utilizes
two-stage multinomial logistic regression to estimate the
impact on human resource development outcomes and
employment decisions of the youth using data of four
regions from the Community-Based Monitoring System.
The study also utilizes treatment evaluation with propensity
score matching to estimate the impact of remittances
on entrepreneurial decisions among households. Initial
findings suggest that remittances shift the youth from
labor-related outcomes to full-time school outcomes, but
when in a state of work, those that receive remittances
have a higher propensity to be engaged in a family-owned
business regardless of pay rather than being self-employed
or employed in establishments. Additionally, it is found
that households that receive remittances have a slightly
higher propensity to be engaged in entrepreneurship in
general. Disaggregating according to industry, the impact
of remittances varies but have strong positive effects
on entrepreneurial activities related to crop-production,
poultry, service, and construction. The study provides
actionable recommendations for the provinces of Cavite,
Batangas, Negros Occidental, Misamis Occidental, Manila
and Marikina, particularly on how to channel remittances to
achieve highly productive outcomes for the youth and for
households.

Promoting Entrepreneurship to Address Youth Unemployment
The Bureau of Labor and Employment Survey data on youth
employment reveal that the Filipino youth are predominant
in entrepreneurial activities in the country. The youth is
defined by the Bureau of Labor and Employment Survey
as individuals between the age of 18 and 30 years old.
Unfortunately, the youth also experience the highest level
of unemployment, where 49 percent of the unemployed
belong to the age bracket of 15 to 24 years old. To
immediately address this problem of youth unemployment,
the government encourages the youth to go to into business.
Two of the programs of the government, specifically
Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) aimed at
reducing the number of unemployed and at the same time
addressing the education for employment needs of the
youth are the Youth Education-Youth Employability (YE-YE)
Project and Youth Entrepreneurship Support (YES) Project.
The study focused on assessing the role of government
programs such as the YE-YE and YES Projects together with
other programs in addressing youth unemployment through
an impact evaluation study using the propensity score
matching (PSM) using the Community-Based Monitoring
System (CBMS). Results show that the youth who availed
of one or two of the entrepreneurial programs experienced
an improvement in wage by around five thousand pesos
per year while total expenditure increased by over one
thousand pesos per year. Despite this favorable result,
there is a need to promote the entrepreneurial programs
among the youth and to follow-on their progress so as to
assist them in sustaining the business.

Towards Achieving the 20130 Agenda for Sustainable Development
In September 2015, 193 Member States unanimously
adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
As the 2030 Agenda seeks to build on the Millennium
Development Goals and address their unfinished business,
taking stock of the Philippine experience in achieving the
MDGs is critically important in planning and mainstreaming
the 2030 Agenda. The presentation includes the country’s
probabilities of meeting the MDGs targets and lessons
learned in MDG implementation. The Agenda has the 17
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets
22
that cover the economic, social and environmental
dimensions of development. It identifies the eradication
of poverty in all its forms and dimensions as the greatest
global challenge and as an indispensable requirement
for sustainable development. During the UN Summit,
the Philippines pledged to make the 2030 Agenda
a reality and to leave no one behind. The presentation will
highlight the Philippine priorities and emerging strategies in
achieving the SDGs.

Abstract
HONORABLE MAYOR FERDINAND B. TUBBAN
Tabuk City
The Role of CBMS in Grassroots Participatory
Planning and Budgeting in Tabuk City
The first round of CBMS census was conducted last
2010 and this covered 42 barangays of Tabuk City.
Predominantly, the local government of Tabuk City had
invested for this survey to determine the current status
and welfare of the whole populace. With the output that
transpired from this survey, it was necessary to be utilized
during one of the locally initiated programs dubbed as
“Barangay Revisit”. This is participated by the Barangay
Council, Purok Leaders, Non-government Organizations
(NGOs), Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), Rural-based
Organizations (RBOs), Religious Sector, Youth Sector,
Women’s Organization, Senior Citizen Sector, Parent
Leaders, Pantawid Beneficiaries, Education Sector and
the rest of the constituents of the barangays. The survey
output per barangay was highlighted on the Current Reality
Dialogue segment of the revisit. This intends to ignite
the awareness of the public of their real situation based
from the empirical data reflecting the Core indices of the
CBMS. The output of purok consultations that include the
Programs, Projects or Activities (PPAs) were reconciled,
validated and synchronized to the output of the CBMS
census to identify PPAs that need to be prioritized by the
barangays. The issues that surfaced show Less Access
to Safe Potable Water & Poor Sanitation. In view of this,
the aforementioned issues were highly regarded, thus,
PPAs like Construction, Completion, Rehabilitation of
Waterworks, Deep Wells, Spring Development together
with the Construction and Completion of Communal
Public Toilets were prioritized and budgeted in the Annual
Investment Plan to address them. It is in this context that
eighty nine (89) developmental projects were implemented
for year 2014 and one hundred six (106) projects for year
2015. These account to P10,415,000.00 and P12,065,000.00
respectively.
In addendum, the CBMS census output was a
powerful tool in identifying indigents for the Philhealth
beneficiaries aided by the local government. There were
numerous beneficiaries enrolled to Philhealth. CBMS was
also vital in updating the Comprehensive Land Use Plan of
Tabuk City for year 2012-2022.
CBMS had truly helped the local government in the
delivery of basic social services, hence, it was adopted
again for the second round that was conducted in the year
2015. Tabuk City will once again be using the reliable data
of CBMS in crafting future sectoral plans and programs
to come up with an evidence-based implementation of
programs, projects and activities. It is also timely that we
will update our Comprehensive Development Plan and
will formulate the Executive-Legislative Agenda (ELA) for
the new administration this year. Indeed, CBMS marked a
history in making waves for the development of Tabuk City.
HONORABLE MAYOR BENJAMIN N. TRIA
Municipality of Looc, Occidental Mindoro
Using CBMS Data in the Updating of the CCA – DRR Enhanced Municipal
Comprehensive Land and Water Use Plan and the Barangay
With the passage of the Climate Change Act and the
Disaster Risks Reduction Act, each Local Government
Unit is mandated to formulate its CCA – DRR enhanced
Comprehensive Land Use Plan. From this document,
the annual Climate Change Action Plan and the annual
DRR Management Plan have to be prepared. These two
plans have to be consolidated into what is now required
by the Department of Interior and Local Government
(DILG) and the Department of Budget and Management
(DBM) as the Climate Change Expenditure Tagged
(CCET) Annual Investment Plan (AIP). Each plan has the
essential Objectively Verifiable Indicator (OVI). OVIs can
only be identified, monitored and evaluated, if you have
empirical data on hand. This information can be attained
if there is CBMS installed in the LGU. CBMS census
data of Looc on the type of housing materials for roof
and walls; the number of population who have suffered
from CC-related diseases; the number of households
who are vulnerable to or have lived through calamities
and disasters, and their readiness to respond to impact
were among the information used in the formulation of
the Barangay Development Plans. From these CBMS
generated data in the, CCA – DRR responsive programs,
projects and activities were identified.

A Meaningful and Responsive BuB Using the CBMS
The Municipality of Orion first adopted CBMS in 2006,
and every 3 years thereafter up to present, CBMS was
institutionalized in Orion through an ordinance. Data from
CBMS has been used for planning activities, for facilitating
evidence-based planning and identification of more
responsive projects aimed at alleviating poverty for in Orion.

UNICEF’s Unconditional Cash Transfer Program in Yolanda–Affected Areas
In response to the devastating effects of super typhoon
Yolanda (Haiyan), the United Nations Children’s Fund
(UNICEF) implemented an emergency unconditional cash
transfer (UCT) program to provide quick relief to children
and their families in Tacloban City and 5 municipalities in
Leyte. The 10,000 household beneficiaries were provided
Php 4370 a month over a period of six months. The study
examines the design and implementation of the UCT
program, and its impacts on the welfare conditions of the
beneficiary households
HONORABLE MAYOR GLADYS GASCON
Municipality of Padada, Davao del Sur
CBMS–How We Use It, How We Do It
Lack of data is a common issue among LGUs when it
comes to planning specially in coming up with a realistic
analysis concerning social, economic, environmental and
infrastructure sectors. Formulation of plans and programs
is very limited due to lack of data thus the LGU cannot
determine the exact intervention, the right location and
who really needs the program.
The CBMS data of the Municipality of Padada was used
for poverty situation analysis to come up with the list of
priority programs and projects for BuB CY 2017. Data from
CBMS was also used for program targeting. For example,
data on access to water facilitated the distribution of water
facilities (jetmatics) to identified beneficiaries from different
barangays. In addition, CBMS generated the required
demography data for the Municipality to identify the
households living along the rivers and seashore which was
used as basis in the formulation of Municipality’s Disaster
Risk Reduction Management Plan and Contingency Plan.

Risk Factors and Access to Finance: Evidence from the CBMS Philippine Entrepreneurship
The stages in the development of entrepreneurship can
be affected by many factors, the ADB (2014) reports that
access to finance or ability to source capital is one of
among them, if not the most burdensome of all the factors.
The paper presents that access to debt finance can be
explained by the capability to pay of the borrower. Such that
the better the capability to pay of a borrower, the wider his
option to access debt finance or borrow capital from banks.
Why debt? Reasons include debt being the cheapest
source of capital plus it’s the easiest and fastest to avail
once one has the appropriate requirements. The idea is
to measure access to debt finance with the borrower’s
capability to pay using his inherent characteristics. Such
that a borrower’s housing type, gender, education, share of
income, business assets, marital status, unemployment
skills and economic skills can be used to determine his
chances to access to debt finance.
The paper uses the Community Based Monitoring
System(CBMS) as core data and implements a three(3)
stage methodology. Regression results show that the
amount of business assets, housing type and number
of jobs positively affect access to debt finance or the
capability to pay of the borrower. Business assets provide
solid collateral to guarantee borrowing and hedge against
borrower default. Meanwhile, the number of appliances
24
and being a single parent negatively affect a borrower’s
access to debt finance. The occurrence of bank loans is
also anchored on the collateral of the borrower. Such that
if the borrower owns or rents his house, of earning age,
and has some amount of business assets, his chances to
borrow bank capital is positively significant as compared
to a borrower who is identified as a single parent. This
is expected as being a single parent restricts the cash
flow situation of a household, limiting the capacity to pay
financial obligations. The paper also found that being able
to access debt finance has a positive impact to the total
sales performance of entrepreneurs as access to debt
opens additional capital for business. Furthermore, results
establish that entrepreneurs with access to bank loans
have improved total family income and business assets.
As such, the paper calls for examining alternative
sources of collateral and/or guarantees for micro and small
medium enterprises (MSME)’s debt financing especially
at the barangay level, among others it could include a
credit score appraisal for households; for empowering
resource stewardship and risk management skills at the
household level and for championing a need for a credible
source of information through a credit exchange bureau or
comprehensive database center solely for MSME’s.

HONORABLE MAYOR DAHLIA A. LOYOLA
Municipality of Carmona, Cavite
Purok Kalinga
When dealing with complex socio-economic issues such as
squatting, it is of paramount importance to define the rootcause of the people’s plight, determine the location of their
dwellings and what effective approach will be employed for
their relocation. CBMS data on informal settlers have been
used to identify households residing along easements,
riverbanks, under the bridges, flood-prone and land-slide
areas, along fault lines and other critical zones. The data
generated from the CBMS census in Carmona served as
the basis in formulating and providing tailor-fit programs for
a more efficient resource utilization and accurate program
targeting.

Making Social Protection Work for the Informal Sector: The Case of PhilHealth and ALKANSSSYA Program
for the Self-Employed
In the DLSU-AKI annual report of Monitoring the Philippine
Economy, the Philippines maintained its growth momentum
in 2014, besting other Asian economies. Given this, it
is interesting to find out whether various sectors have
benefited from this growth, particularly the informal sector
which includes bulk of the poor who are self-employed and
are mostly engaged in the services sector. The intention
of this study aimed to determine the effect of social
protection, particularly PhilHealth and the ALKANSSSYA
on informal sector especially those who are poor and selfemployed. By the end of 2014, total benefit payment for all
sectors amounted to PhP 78.2 billion (PhP 19.2 billion for the
informal sector). Since the government spends so much on
the PhilHealth, especially with its expansion of the indigent
program, there is a need to investigate the effectiveness
of the program especially on the poor. Utilizing data from
the Community Based Monitoring Survey (year 2015)
from several barangays in Metro Manila, the propensity
score matching method showed that those who availed of
PhilHealth have a higher annual income compared to those
who did not avail (PhP18,975). PhilHealth beneficiaries
are also more likely to have a higher annual income from
entrepreneurial activities in the informal sector (PhP14,361)
than non-beneficiaries. On the other hand, ALKANSSSYA
beneficiaries also had higher annual income than nonbeneficiaries (PhP17,843). The results support the claim
that social protection is indeed effective in improving the
income of the poor, especially those who are dependent
on the informal sector. Expanding the coverage of the
programs for the informal sector, thus, will aid in reducing
poverty levels.

CBMS FEATURED PUBLICATION
THE MANY FACES OF POVERTY (VOLUME 7)
The official poverty monitoring system (PMS) in
the Philippines relies mainly on family income and
expenditure surveys. Information on other aspects of
well-being is generally obtained from representative
health surveys, national population and housing
censuses, and others. In this regard, the CommunityBased Monitoring System (CBMS) seeks to address the
gaps in the available information by providing data at
the local level appropriate for diagnosing the cause and
extent of local poverty, formulating appropriate policies
and programs, identifying eligible beneficiaries, and
assessing the impact of policies and programs. It also
supports the decentralization process by capacitating the
LGUs to collect, analyze, and use data in local planning,
budgeting, and program implementation to a chieve the
sustainable development goals (SDGs).
The seventh volume of statistical tables and poverty maps
of six cities generated through the CBMS methodology
represents part of a series of publications from the
collaborations between the CBMS Network Coordinating
Team and its partner-LGUs. These partnerships have
been in place for several years now, and these partnerLGUs are finally enjoying the fruits of their hard labor.
The CBMS poverty maps will identify who and where the poor are as they provide a comprehensive
picture of the different faces of poverty in different parts of the country. They will also aid in identifying
the most pressing needs of the community, assist in prioritizing interventions to address these needs,
and facilitate the targeting of programs for those who need the assistance most.
The cities featured in this volume are Escalante, General Trias, Tabuk, Tacurong, Tanauan, and Tandag.
The statistics presented in this report are based on the CBMS census conducted in these cities during
a 2-year period–from 2014-2015 using the CBMS Accelerated Poverty Profiling (APP).

CBMS METHODOLOGY
The community-based monitoring system (CBMS) has
been designed to provide policymakers with a regular
source of information that can be used to track the micro
impacts of macroeconomic shocks on the vulnerable
groups in the society. While it generates a core set of
indicators that will enable monitoring of multi-dimensional
nature of poverty overtime, the system has flexibility to
accommodate other indicators that can aid more in-depth
analysis of emerging thematic concerns including gender
and development, monitoring the millennium development
goals (MDGs) and now the sustainable development
goals (SDGs), and impact monitoring of economic and noneconomic shocks among others,
CBMS APP
In 2013, the CBMS International Network launched
and deployed the CBMS Accelerated Poverty
Profiling (APP) for use of its LGU partners in the
country in response to the accelerating demand
from various users of the CBMS, particularly local
government units, to fast track the generation
of data for use in the preparation of development
plans and budgets, and use of data for various
development program initiatives. The CBMS APP is
an organized, systematic and efficient process of use of
latest information and communication technology tools e.g.
tablets, and the standard CBMS instruments for data collection
(CBMS SCAN), processing (CBMS STATSIM), poverty mapping
(QGIS) and data management tools. Data is transmitted and
managed and accessed through the CBMS Portal.
Since the adoption of the CBMS by LGUs as a tool for local
development planning in 2000, the coverage of CBMS in the
Philippines has expanded to 75 provinces (32 of which are
implementing the system province-wide), 891 municipalities,
and 74 cities, covering a total of 23,932 barangays. At least 300
of these LGUs have been implementing the CBMS APP with
support from a pool of accredited CBMS national trainers from
the DILG at the central, regional and local levels using a set of
structured training modules provided by the CBMS Network.
The CBMS APP is also being implemented in selected sites in
Argentina, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Pakistan, and Togo and will soon to be
deployed in additional sites in Haiti, Kenya, Niger and South Africa among
others.

CBMS IN THE PHILIPPINES
The Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) was developed in 1993 to fill in the necessary information for more
evidence-based planning and program implementation and for monitoring the micro-level impacts of macro policies
and shocks particularly on the most vulnerable groups of the population. CBMS is an organized process of collecting,
processing, validating and use of data for various development concerns. It was designed as a system that can be used
and sustained by LGUs overtime and facilitates information sharing at each geopolitical level for purposes of better
policymaking and program implementation.
Since the early 2000, the implementation and use of CBMS has been supported by policy issuances at the local and
national levels. Some of these issuances are as follows:
• DILG Memorandum Circular 2001-105
Issued in August 2001, the circular enjoins all local chief executives to undertake local programs on poverty
reduction and economic transformation and emphasized the need to designate Local Poverty Reduction Action
Officers (LPRAOs) and to formulate a Local Poverty Reduction Action Plan (LPRAP).
• NAPC En Banc Resolution No. 7
Issued in March 2003, the resolution directs LGUs to adopt the 13 core local poverty indicators as the minimum
set of community-based information for poverty diagnosis and planning at the local levels and integrate such
information in their local poverty monitoring system and local level action plans and program.
• DILG Memorandum Circular 2003-92
Issued in April 2003, it provides policy guidelines for the adoption of the 13 core local poverty indicators for planning. The
guidelines shall aid the LGUs in assessing and understanding poverty and its dimensions at the barangays, municipalities,
cities and provinces with the end view of formulating an LPRAP and implementing the plans and programs to reduce
poverty.
• DILG Memorandum Circular 2004-152
Issued in November 2004, the circular encourages LGUs to intensify efforts in implementing programs, projects and
activities towards the achievement of the millennium development goals (MDGs).
