The Commission on Population and Development Region VIII (CPD VIII) recently took significant steps in strengthening the localization of Population and Development (POPDEV) programs in the province of Leyte.

In Palo, Leyte, CPD VIII, led by Regional Director Elnora R. Pulma, formalized its partnership with the municipality through a ceremonial signing of commitment with Municipal Mayor Remedios "Matin" L. Petilla during the LGU's flag raising ceremony. A subsequent program orientation with department heads further aligned local priorities and identified concrete strategies for advancing POPDEV implementation in the municipality.

In Dulag, Leyte, CPD VIII successfully presented its Devolution Transition Plan before the Sangguniang Bayan, underscoring the importance of adopting the 2026–2028 Local POPDEV Plan and strengthening local population structures, particularly the operationalization of the Local Population Office, to ensure responsive and sustainable delivery of POPDEV programs and services.

Together with our LGU partners, CPD VIII remains steadfast in its mission to build data-driven, people-centered communities across Eastern Visayas.

National goals only mean something when they reach the barangay, and when they show up in the programs, policies, and decisions that shape everyday lives.

That's the heart of localization.

CPD VIII, together with the Local Government Units of Paranas and San Jorge, Samar, successfully completed the 3rd Batch of the Program Design Workshop (PDW) for the Localization of the Philippine Population and Development Plan of Action (PPD-POA) on May 19–21, 2026.

Sangguniang Bayan members, department heads, and program implementers sat together to craft POPDEV interventions that are evidence-based, community-grounded, and truly responsive to the people they serve.
