DAET, Camarines Norte, Aug. 7 (PIA) – In order to promote and empower priority far flung community residents affected by insurgency, a project dubbed as “One Province, One Barangay” was launched in Brgy. Guisican, Labo recently. It aims to bring the convergence of government resources to the beneficiaries.
This will be through the Poverty Reduction, Livelihood and Employment Cluster-Provincial Task Force-End Local Communist Armed Conflict (PRLEC-PTF-ELCAC) led by the Technical Education Skills and Development Authority (TESDA).
TESDA Regional Director Toni June A. Tamayo said that the project was the brainchild of their Director General, Secretary Isidro S. Lapeña in response to Executive Order 70 or the Whole-of-Nation Approach in eliminating local communists’ armed conflict to attain lasting peace.
Tamayo said that “One province, One Barangay” was also launched in Masbate and will soon start in other provinces.
It aims to attain food security in the countryside. He said that there will be no security if there is no food. He added that in this time of pandemic, backyard gardening helped a lot in rural areas.
He added that the focus of TESDA funds this year is more on agriculture and construction but other skills training will still continue.
"The project will not only focus on planting, but we'll l be giving training on entrepreneurship, establishment of agricultural production site, trading center among others to be provided by the partner agencies , he said.
