the needs of the community and the residents
of the barangay
Primary Purpose of Brgy. Dev.
Planning
 to protect public interest and
that of every individual who has a
stake in the planning process
Planning is a key element in governance that
is expected to answer the following key
questions:
 WHY is there a need for the local government to
plan?
 WHO are involved in planning?
 HOW is the plan accomplished
 WHAT are the activities that will ensure the
implementation of the prepared plan?
The current planning system
attempts to avoid having different
plans. This is through the
encouragement of sectoral groups
and CSOs to participate in the
planning process.
