The Primeval Light Enlightenment and the eternal quest for magnificence has neither bounds nor shadow outside it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that limitless light is everywhere within it. Our cover is a boundless vision of the looming future that we seek; the future that we dream for our local communities and for every Filipino. The ancient brilliance that radiates in the bancas that were fashioned by our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forefathers still reflects in the spirit and aspirations of every modern Filipino. That selfsame seed is embodied in the values of pagkakaisa, pakikilahok and pagpupunyagi which would surely steer us and bring us farther in our quest for not only local but global peace and prosperity. Likewise, the undying flame of bayanihan will clear our path towards our own national progress.

2011 Annual Report

MESSAGE from the Secretary As the DILGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s training arm for local government units and the Department personnel, we are glad that the Local Government Academy in 2011 has aligned its plans and programs with the Department priority outcome areas on Empowered and Accountable LGUs, DisasterResilient LGUs, Competitive and Business-Friendly LGUs , Conflict-Free and Safe Communities, and Strengthened Internal Governance both for the DILG and LGA. This alignment with the Department priorities augurs well to create the needed synergy in local governance initiatives that highlight Participation, Accountability, Responsiveness & Transparency (PART) which is the same core message we have conveyed in the Biyaheng Pinoy Program and in our strategic direction to move forward more importantly through empowered and accountable LGUs. Good local governance demands that we should have disaster-resilient LGUs that proactively respond to natural and man-made disasters that defy accurate predictions. The Climate Change Adaptation Act and the Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act are but just two of these laws that focus on the readiness and resilience of LGUs in times of calamities. LGA has responded to this call via its capacity development interventions to the LGUs and Department personnel as well. We take note of the role the LGA played in spearheading the Business Permitting and Licensing System for LGUs. In this program, together with the DTI and other development partners, LGUs are now advancing towards being businessfriendly and competitive in attracting investors for economic development.

6 Blazing New Trails

Promoting conflict-free and safe communities is a key ingredient to national development and even for the tourism industry to flourish. We recognize the orientation workshops done by LGA on crisis management along this concern. We hope that LGUs will continue to avail of capacity development interventions that LGA offers. This is the Department commitment for excellence in local governance, through our training arm, the LGA . Congratulations to LGA for this splendid and milestone accomplishment.

2011 Annual Report

Message from the Undersecretary for Local Government Once again, the Local Government Academy (LGA) has had a year of success. And for that, I would like to congratulate LGA for actively capacitating local government units towards good local governance. I admire how LGA can easily cope with the constant changes in its environment and with the varying requisites that its stakeholders ask for. The efforts that LGA exerted in 2011 are significantly effective in enhancing LGUs capacities enabling them to deliver services to the people and to be the nation’s dynamic partner towards progress and development. LGA was able to fine tune and successfully implement Capacity Development programs emphasizing the tenets of good governance – acc ountability, transparency, sense of ownership and informed decision through participation and collective action. These interventions did not only stimulate transformation in LGUs but also made impact in the lives of the Filipinos. As we look forward to a brighter future for our LGUs and the nation, I encourage LGA to scale greater heights – strong, clear, and committed in its pursuit. With the continuous support from its partners and stakeholders and with a defined path towards progress and good governance, LGA will surely conquer the upward journey to success.

AUSTERE A. PANADERO Undersecretary for Local Government, DILG

MESSAGE from the Executive Director The Local Government Academy (LGA) had challenging yet fruitful 2011. More than ever, we have aligned and focused our tasks with the priority thrusts of the Department; and implemented programs that empower and promote accountable LGUs, develop disaster-resilient, competitive and business-friendly LGUs; and make communities conflict-free and safe. We stood fast in keeping up with our mandate in leading and assisting local officials to be dynamic partners in national development through the Barangay Newly-Elected Officials (BNEO) Program, in promoting transparency, accountability and participation among different governance stakeholders, in enhancing LGUs capacities in disaster risk reduction and management and climate change adaptation, and in establishing a business-friendly climate in every LGU through the Nationwide Streamlining of Business Permits and Licensing Systems (BPLS). It was also during the year that we have celebrated 20 years of local autonomy brought about by the Local Government Code of 1991 and embarked on a collaborative journey towards “Bayang Maunlad,” through the Biyaheng Pinoy program. Internal capacity development programs were also conducted to support the DILG in undertaking its new role as enabler and facilitator in local governance. For LGA to remain steadfast to its mandate and goals, it continued in bringing out the full potential of its human resource, in improving its organizational competencies and in strengthening partnerships and linkages. LGA has been in service for over two decades now and our triumphs and accomplishments would not have been possible if not for the unwavering support of our partners and stakeholders coupled with our own personnel’s commitment and dedication to good local governance. In the coming years, the focus of our efforts will be on blazing new trails in good governance leading to that future we have always dreamt of – the achievement of a genuine and more meaningful local autonomy bringing out peaceful, safe, self-reliant, and development-dominated communities. Together, let us build a brighter future for our local governments, our people and for our country.

CSO mapping involved the development of a knowledge base of all CSOs working with LGUs. There were four batches of trainings held from April-May 2011 attended by DILG Cluster Leaders and CSO representatives from Regions 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 (1st batch); Regions 1, 2, NCR (2nd batch); Regions 3, 4B, 6,8, CAR (3rd batch); and, Regions 4A, 5 (4th batch). As a result of the activities, 16 workplans for the CSO Mapping were developed by the 16 regions who participated in the trainings. The drafting of CSO mapping tools such as the profiling tool, TNA, and volunteer assessment were done in the earlier part of 2011. Thereafter, the tools were pre-tested in Bicol and CARAGA (SLGP pilot sites), in March 2011, to assess its applicability for the nationwide CSO mapping/survey. A total of thirteen (13) CSOs participated in the pre-test: 7 in Bicol and 6 in CARAGA. Respondents were subdivided into 5 groups – civic organizations, non-government organizations, people’s organizations, homeowner’s associations and cooperatives - to further facilitate the conduct of the pre-test to multiple sample populations. The conduct of the nationwide survey was done between May to August 2011. Results of the CSO mapping is now available in electronic format, and will also be made available in printed format in 2012. In preparation for the roll-out of the Strengthening Local Special Bodies (LSBs) - the component aimed at improving access of CSOs to local governance through improvements in policy - a pilot-run of the said training was conducted in September. Participated by 16 representatives from LSBs and selected DILG regional offices, the activity resulted in the enhancement of three (3) training modules. These modules were then applied in the Training of Trainers (TOT) for the LSB Strengthening Program, where a pool of 42-strong trainers was organized. On the Volunteer and Citizenship Program, development of the component framework is ongoing, with technical assistance from the European Union (EU). The framework is expected to be finalized by the end of December 2011. The development of the LG Watch component framework is likewise ongoing, also with technical assistance from the EU. A consultation workshop was held on 9 November 2011 at the LGA to present the initial design of the Citizen’s Satisfaction Index System (CSIS) which is part of the LG Watch framework. Recommendations on the enhancement of the CSIS in terms of content, scope and implementation strategies were consolidated from the partners during the workshop. Also, a consultative conference on LG Watch project was held on 6-7 December 2011 at Bayview Hotel, Manila to present the LG watch program and solicit inputs from the participants to enhance its concept framework and components. All activities under LG watch were managed and funded by BLGS through its CSO Partnership Unit.

Strengthening of Local Governments in the Philippines â&#x20AC;&#x201C; PHASE 3

The Strengthening of Local Governments in the Philippines Program is a collaboration between the DILG-LGA and the Spanish Government through AECID, as part of continuing efforts to strengthen the capacities of the LGUs in creating a business-friendly environment that fosters a sustainable climate for financing and investment. The SLGP project development objective is to contribute to the strengthening process of the institutional capacity of LGUs with the aim of promoting development policies and projects that improve the community residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; quality of life and contribute to reducing the vulnerability of the most disadvantaged groups. A distinct feature of SLGP Phase III is its infrastructure component that will complement the capability building interventions implemented in the early phases of the project. Likewise, this affords the LGU an opportunity to implement public works projects that were prioritized in the local development plans, and that will redound to the well being of their constituency particularly the vulnerable groups.

2011 Annual Report

BIYAHENG PINOY The year 2011 marks the 20th year of local autonomy brought about by the Local Government Code. In celebration of the local governance milestones achieved, the DILG and LGA joined the League of Local Governments in spearheading the celebratory activities under the banner of Biyaheng Pinoy.

Launched in October 2010, Biyaheng Pinoy is a year-long program that featured a series of local governance related activities aimed at achieving broader valuation of local autonomy towards national development and increased awareness of the general public on local governance issues. These include dialogues, fora and exhibits held at the regional and national level, and a media campaign to further promote the program. Culminating the celebratory program was a three-day festivity on October 9-11, 2011 that featured a governance forum, bicycle tour, nationwide simultaneous barangay assemblies and awarding ceremonies of governance excellence programs. These activities resulted in the identification of policy recommendation and proposed legislative agenda, and the production of various IEC materials. More importantly, because of its relevance to the thrust of the national government administration, the Biyaheng Pinoy that was started as a program to commemorate the LGC Anniversary has turned into a movement for good local governance.

Strengthening Local Governance Resource Centers as Harmonizing Mechanism for Effective Local Governance in the Philippines (LGRC Strengthening) The Local Governance Resource Center (LGRC) is a dynamic, interactive and virtual program that contributes to making the DILG as a knowledge centric organization, and builds learning communities that pursue local governance excellence through knowledge sharing and innovation. It is envisioned as a mechanism to harmonize effective local governance in the Philippines through its components capacity development, linkage, multi-media, and public education and citizenship building. There are seventeen (17) regional LGRCs (LGRRCs) that have been organized across the country; majority of which are now operational. The Local Governance National Resource Center (LGNRC) which serves as the network operations center of the LGRRCs and facilitates the exchange among local governance sector, partners and stakeholders at the national and local level is located at the LGA Training Center in Los Baños, Laguna. With the LGRC’s strategic role in the advancement of local governance, development partners such as the European Union and the World Bank have committed their support in the enhancement of the LGRRCs, with the goal of strengthening these as harmonizing mechanism for effective local governance. Interventions for the first semester of 2011 resulted in the (1) organization of core teams as well as multi-stakeholder advisory councils for all 17 LGRRCs, (2) formulation of regional knowledge capital plans, and (3) the establishment of an Integrated Library Management System. In March, a National Convention of LGRRCs, “Revving Up LGRCs: The Engineering of Good Local Governance” gathered the LGRRC core teams resulting in the development of work and financial plans from April 2011 to September 2012. Also, in mid-May to early June, the LGA conducted two (2) batches of a 5-day training on Website Development and Management. During the training, LGRRC IT Specialists were equipped with appropriate technical skills

in developing and managing their own LGRRC websites. Enhanced LGRRC websites were expected to be made available to public by August 2011. For the second semester, two (2) training activities were conducted. In July, a leadership enhancement and competency training was conducted for the LGRRC managers. Of the 17 managers, 13 participated in the training, all of whom were expected to prepare their Personal Leadership Development Plan. At the moment, 1 such plan has been submitted. Meanwhile, in August a training program for enhancing the LGRRC capacity to conduct KM Audits was launched. The said training is primarily aimed at developing a pool of KM Audit Facilitators/ Coaches. Initial training activity held in August oriented LGRRC focal persons on the principles and rudiments of KM Audit. This led to the preparation of regional action plans for the conduct of KM activities and the actual conduct of regional KM Audits. The training program has also allowed for the preparation of a KM Audit Guide, which will help in the conduct of future KM audit activities.

Local Government Academy

2011 Annual Report

OUTLOOK FOR 2012 The Local Government Academy has been evolving, throughout its 23 year history, to meet the changing requirements and the dynamic landscape of local governance in the country. We are grateful to our partners for their untiring support to our noble undertakings that cultivate a culture of individual and organizational excellence. More than ever, our collaborations with local governance stakeholders have gotten stronger to meet our goals and advance local government capacity development in the Philippines. LGA’s mission is premised on the beliefs that local governments are the key to national progress; that LGUs has the power to transform our communities; and that it helps define our society now and for future generations. Our Strategic Advantages LGA has several key advantages that support in fulfilling its mission and addressing new opportunities and challenges. Foremost among these advantages is the ability of LGA to operate given a wide-array of varying conditions and realms simultaneously:

•

As a national government agency under

the DILG it serves as a knowledge hub that sets the trends and standards on local institutional development by supporting and maintaining a competitive and robust pool of human resources;

•

As the market-maker it brings together and

leads a network of local resource institutions to coordinate and catalyse actions in the supply-side of the capacity development arena.

•

As a non-profit organization it develops and implements effective programs and services with public, non-government, ODA and private sector support.

•

As an Asia-Pacific and international partner it develops and acquire benchmarks on good local governance practices and creates various opportunities for collaboration in the global community

Furthermore, LGA easily copes with the changing terrain and needs in the local government capacity development market; notwithstanding imminent challenges in its operating environment; and regardless of shifts in the political spectrum in the country. Our Prospects For 2012, we envision a Local Government Academy that:

60 Blazing New Trails

•

Remains vital and steadfast in support to the continued and growing needs of LGUs to create impact at the community and household level;

•

Builds on strategic and organizational strengths through dynamic partnerships, sustaining what is working, and value-adding to existing programs while complementing the efforts of other government and non-government organizations;

•

Expands resources and enhances its organizational capacity.

Furthermore, LGA endeavours to leverage on the capacity development market that will:

•

Promote a vibrant, strong and diverse organizations adhering to benchmarks and standards of excellence;

•

Support a thriving environment of transparency and accountability;

•

Encourage trust and create access for participation in local governance;

•

Promote communication and knowledge exchange among local governance practitioners, reinforcing their capacity to develop, work, link to local and international expertise across sector-specific concerns, and

•

Ensure sustainability and institutionalization of technology, mechanisms and tools.

This 2012, we pursue a renewed vigour towards this direction. We will once again rely on inclusive and dynamic leadership; strong and pro-active human resources; and committed partners on our continuing quest to being the premier capacity development institution for excellence in local governance.
