Population and Development Strategies

This involves the establishment of a politically influential, research-based and widely participatory policy dialogue aimed at mobilizing support, among decision-makers and the population at large, for dealing with the country's priority population and development issues.

This seeks to contribute to improved population and development policies and programmes and sustained support for their implementation and financing through the process of information-based decision-making and wide consultation among stakeholders. Most of the activities of the sub-programme will take place at the central level, involving the establishment of mechanisms and processes for generating and sustaining a policy dialogue on population-related issues and dissemination of the State of the Philippine Population Report (SPPR).

Formulation of the Population Investment Plan

The project basically aims to enable POPCOM to perform a more effective role in coordinating the funding of strategic activities of the PPMP. Its lead role in the formulation of the PPMP Directional Plan and its mandate as the secretariat of the POPCOM Board inherently place the responsibility on the POPCOM staff. It was envisioned that the investment program will serve as basis for POPCOM to give the donor community the needed guidance in allocating ODA resources to priority activities of the PPMP. A well prepared investment program can also influence the allocation of the national budget for public expenditures.
