In line with the celebration of Labor Day, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD)-Sustainable Livelihood Program (SLP) in partnership with Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Region V launched “SIBOL” campaign last May 1, 2019.

The activity highlighted the photo exhibit and selling of locally made products by SLP program participants and introducing to the general public the SLP program and services.

Aileen Mae B. Barcela, Regional Monitoring and Evaluation Officer (RMEO) of SLP calls for the support in promoting and patronizing the SLP program participant’s product and services.

SLP is a community-based capacity building program that aims to improve the socioeconomic condition of the participants. It facilitates interventions that expand the livelihood asset base of the participants (human, social, physical, natural, and financial capital) so they may either have gainful employment or successfully manage a microenterprise.

SLP-Sibol Campaign aligns its communication strategy to the Sustainable Livelihood Framework (SLF) and focuses on affirming the growth of SLP participant’s capabilities and bridging livelihood opportunities towards inclusive economic development.

Furthermore, SIBOL stands for “Solidarity and Inclusivity in Bridging Opportunities for Livelihoods”, defines the purpose or rallying call for a common goal “Building capabilities, Bridging opportunities, Boosting inclusive growth”.#PRNPOJ05/05/2019
