It is the project
monitoring arm of the Cordillera Regional Development Council (RDC-CAR)
responsible for monitoring and evaluation of priority programs and projects
implemented in the region, particularly those that are encountering problems
and those worthy of replication.
It submits monitoring
reports and recommendations generated during problem-solving sessions to
RDC-CAR for information and appropriate action.
As the technical
secretariat of RPMC, NEDA-CAR listed these 25 SBDP projects under the regional
project monitoring and evaluation system (RPMES) to facilitate monitoring and evaluation.
