For the meeting with the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) last March 24, 2022, in addition to the usual concerns of NGAs (collaboration of neighboring LGUs, harmonize planning processes, increase of pilot-testing sites) the agency had discussed some of their activities related to land use planning such as spearheading the Comprehensive Development Plan of municipalities, technical assistance for CDP (specifically on fifth to sixth income class) to identified municipalities and prioritized LGUs in light of SC Mandana’s ruling, crafted standardized training modules on CDP formulation to ensure the consistency and uniformity of training assistance, and establishing an interactive data management system in partnership with ADB, where LGU can interact and enhance their knowledge in risk-informed planning.
