Assessment

• Helping community members in identifying and

planning process & build their capacity
• To effectively manage increasing quantities of
information
Strategic Planning
• The process of determining “where to go” and
identifying the requirements for getting there in the
most effective and efficient manner possible
• It involves the collection and examination of
information and ideas, and the casting of programs
or policies to guide future actions.
• It includes deciding what objectives to pursue within
a given time frame, what to do and what resources
to use in order to attain the objectives.
Implementation Planning & Action

the fulfillment of the goal.
• To incorporate longer-term decision-making with
short-term flexibility

scales, especially larger cross-border scales
Monitoring

implemented as designed and is having the intended
results
• Is an ongoing data collection process of the program
outputs. Particularly in the project pilot phase, it is
important to gather detailed monitoring data to help
identify and correct unforeseen weaknesses in the
project design and to replicate successful features
during scale-up.
PRINCIPLES OF SOCIAL PLANNING
Participation
• Community members are empowered to meaningfully
participate in all stages and aspects of local development.
Transparency
• All stages of the development process, from planning, to
implementation, up to monitoring and evaluation, is open to
the scrutiny of the community. Through this, communities are
empowered to become active in local governance and
development.
Accountability
• Community members can raise not only their grievances and
concerns but also their suggestions to improve CDD’s
implementation in their community

SOCIAL PLANNING IN THE PHILIPPINES

• Kapit-Bisig Laban sa Kahirapan-Comprehensive and


Integrated Delivery of Social Services:
Kapangyarihan at Kaunlaran sa Barangay (KALAHI-
CIDSS, for short) is a CDD initiative of the
Government of the Philippines’ Department of
Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). KALAHI-
CIDSS seeks to reduce poverty and vulnerabilities
to poverty by addressing a lack of capacity and
resources at the local level and limited
responsiveness of local governments to community
priorities.
• The CDD approach used by KALAHI-CIDSS to implement its
different modalities is an internationally-recognized
development model that gives community members control
over the development process, decision making, and resource
management. It operates under the principle of participation,
transparency, and accountability.

• KALAHI CIDSS seeks to “empower communities in targeted poor


municipalities to achieve improved access to sustainable basic
public services and to participate in more inclusive Local
Government Unit planning and budgeting”. The acronym, LET-
CIDSS, summarizes the basic principles that guide its
implementation: localized decision making, empowerment,
transparency, community priority setting, inclusiveness,
demand-driven, simple, sustainable.
• The cornerstone of the KALAHI-CIDSS approach is the community
empowerment and activity cycle (CEAC). Each village that entered
KALAHI-CIDSS since the project started in 2003 went through the CEAC
three times (approximately once each year) during its engagement
with the project. There are four stages in the CEAC: social preparation,
subproject identification and development, subproject selection and
approval, and subproject implementation.
DEVELOPMENT APPROACHES

“Bottom-up” vs “Top-down”

• Bottom-up approaches emphasize the participation of the


local community in development initiatives so that they can
select their own goals and the means of achieving them. They
also ensure community ownership, and commitment and
accountability to the development project as it seeks
development from below.

• Top-down innovators think that they have the solution to


poverty by framing it as an "engineering problem" that can be
solved, while at the same time believing that as outsiders they
possess the knowledge to provide a solution with a "Big Push”.
Top-down planners look for solutions rather than focus on
specific problems of the poor.
