Webinar For Better Phl Set Next Week

The Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS), with support from Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, will hold a four-part webinar series for this year’s Annual Public Policy Conference (APPC).

Photo Insert: This year's theme is “Reset and Rebuild for a Better Philippines in the Post-Pandemic World.”

The series will feature topics, including resetting capitalism, ethical business, green and inclusive recovery, and a robust and healthy workforce. The APPC is the main and culminating activity of the Development Policy Research Month (DPRM).

Led by PIDS, the DPRM is an annual event held every September to highlight the importance of policy research in crafting evidence-based plans, policies, and programs.

This year’s DPRM theme is “Reset and Rebuild for a Better Philippines in the Post-Pandemic World” or in Filipino, "Muling Magsimula at Magtayo Tungo sa Mas Matatag na Pilipinas Pagkatapos ng Pandemya."

This aims to emphasize that to be able to rebuild from the COVID-19 pandemic and create a better Philippines, we need to reset our paradigms and practices by balancing the interests of people, profit, and planet or by placing equal importance on economic, social, and environmental well-being and sustainability.
