The town's report on gender programs was not backed by the required gender analysis tool.

Why It Matters

Recommended Actions

• Requirethe GFPS to continue to comply with the budgetary requirement of at least 5% of the Municipality's total budget appropriation for GAD PPAs
• Prioritize the implementation of the identified PPAs as per GPB to achieve and promote desirable gender responsive society
• And fully utilize the GAD budget to attain the objective for which the fund was appropriated
• We also recommended that the LCE require the GFPS to utilize the HGDG tool to guarantee the integration of gender concerns in the design, management, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the Municipality's PPAs and to determine the efficiency and effectiveness of its mainstreaming efforts
