Dear Pres. Hechanova:

In line with the resolution issued by the IATF on the prohibition of mass
gatherings for the prevention and/or reduction of COVID-19 transmission,
the Office of Project Development Services (OPDS) thru the Water Supply
and Sanitation Program Management Office (WSSPMO), is now adopting
the strategy of virtual training in the conduct of Capacity Development
Activities.

As such, the OPDS-WSSPMO is planning to conduct Orientation on

Sector Assessment to the target beneficiaries of Regions VI, VIII, XII,
and XIII on October 12-14, 2020, as part of the continuous commitment
of the Department capacitating the local government units.

The specific purpose of the activity is to assist the LGUs in assessing the
existing condition/situation of their Water Supply, Sanitation, and Hygiene
(WaSH) that will be used in the formulation of their integrated WaSH
Medium-Term Investment Plan and Long-Term Development Plan.

In this regard, may we invite Ms. Susie D. Daza, Director of Gender and
Development, as one of the resource speakers/facilitator on the above-
mentioned activity to discuss Tool 5 – Gender Analysis for Safe Water
Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene and Synthesis (Integration of the
Tools).
Attached is the Program of Activities for your ready reference. Our staff
from WSSPMO, Mr. Rowel Arcega will coordinate with your Office
regarding this matter. A-Zoom invitation link will be sent to your email a
day before the meeting.

For any concerns, please do not hesitate to reach her through mails at
dilgwsspmo@gmail.com/welarcega.dilgco@gmail.com or call him at
cellular number 0908 894 4061.

We look forward to your positive response and praying you are well and
safe from COVID-19. Thank you.

Very truly yours,
