Research and Evaluation Studies: CY 2020 Inventory Report

The Policy Development and Planning Bureau (PDPB) continuously monitors the status of implementation of Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 9, Series of 2019 or the “Guidelines for the Conduct of Research and Evaluation in the DSWD” otherwise known as the DSWD Research and Evaluation Policy. As part of the monitoring, a database of the Department’s research and evaluation studies (i.e. planned, on-going, and completed) is maintained by PDPB. A report on the studies undertaken by the DSWD-Offices, Bureaus, Services, and Units (OBSUs), including external researches, capturing all approved proposals and/or final reports should be submitted to PDPB on an annual basis in order to ensure that the database is maintained and updated.
