Agenda 2030 and the SIDS:

Strengthening Statistical capacity and readiness.

PARIS 21, 19-20 May 2016

Why do we need CBMS? Lack of necessary disaggregated data for: – Diagnosing extent of poverty at the local level – Determining the causes of poverty – Formulating appropriate policies and program – Identifying eligible beneficiaries – Assessing impact of policies and programs

Need for support mechanisms for the implementation of the decentralization policy

CBMS

Resource constraints and distributive objectives increases the demand for local data that can support targeting schemes

What is CBMS? An organized way of collecting information at the local level for use of local government units, national government agencies, non-government organizations, and civil society for planning, program implementation and impact monitoring.

A tool intended for improved governance and greater transparency and accountability in resource allocation. A tool to empower communities

What are the features of CBMS? It involves the complete enumeration of all households.

It collects data on the demographic, economic and social characteristics of households, including the different dimensions of poverty.

The LGUs take the lead in the data collection and processing, serve as the repository of the database and use the data in the formulation of annual development and investment plans.

Members of the community are involved in the whole CBMS process.

Databanks are established at each geopolitical level.

13+1 CBMS Core Indicators of Poverty

What is CBMS APP? The CBMS Accelerated Poverty Profiling (APP) combines use of latest information and communication technology tools with the standard CBMS instruments for data collection (CBMS Scan and CBMS Portal), processing (CBMS StatSim), poverty mapping (QGIS), and data management instruments. As of May 17, 2016, the CBMS portal has • Data for about 2,992,197 households • 13,948 registered devices • 14,653 registered users • 353 local government units

• Data collection with encoding and GPS reading: CBMS Scan and Portal

• Data Processing: CBMS StatSimPro

• Poverty Mapping: Quantum GIS (QGIS)

• LMP Memorandum Circulars 027-2006 and 027-2006B enjoins member LGUs to adopt/sustain the adoption of the CBMS as a tool for local poverty diagnosis and to institutionalize this as part of the system of local governance. At the same time, the LMP has issued these circulars to ensure the incorporation of the MDG targets and utilization of the CBMS data in the local development plans at the municipal and barangay levels for focused poverty targeting.

• NSCB Resolution No. 6 (2005) which recognizes and enjoins support to the CBMS as a tool for strengthening the statistical system at the local level. It also directs the NSCB Technical Staff to initiate and coordinate an advocacy program for the adoption of the CBMS by the LGUs, through the RSCCs, the technical arm of the NSCB Executive Board in the regions
