LEGAZPI CITY, Oct. 2 (PIA) -- The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) Bicol regional office, through the Listahanan or the National Household Targeting System for Poverty Reduction (NHTS-PR), is now accepting applications for the first Gawad Listahanan or the Data Utilization Awards.
The awards are open to local government units (LGUs) to recognize the efforts of our data users in providing services and assistance to the Listahanan-identified poor families.
DSWD Bicol regional director Arnel Garcia said the first Gawad Listahanan will focus solely on LGUs but the DSWD is planning to expand the award eligibility to non-government organizations and other stakeholders in the future.
The activity also aims to promote the convergence of all social protection stakeholders on the identified poor to effectively address the different aspects of poverty.
Qualified LGUs will be classified under one of three categories: municipal, city or provincial government.
LGUs may be nominated to the competition provided that they follow a set of minimum standards like: 1) must have an active memorandum of agreement with the DSWD on Listahanan data sharing; 2) funded and implemented a social protection program that provides direct service/intervention to the Listahanan-identified poor, such as but not limited to scholarships, MEDICAL ASSISTANCE, and skills/livelihood training; and, 3) must be 100-percent compliant with the annual reportorial requirement of data sharing as stipulated in the agreement (submission of updated reports which includes the list of programs and their respective beneficiaries, who were identified using the database). The participants have until Oct. 15 to submit their entries.
The awarding ceremony will be held during the DSWD anniversary in January next year.
The awardee for each category will receive a plaque citing the highlights of its contribution and/or significance of their partnership with the DSWD and cash incentive of at least Php 50,000 to be provided based on a project proposal that will promote the Listahanan. (MAL-PIA5/Albay)
