Accountable, Transparent, Participative & Effective Governance

This is a condition where a province, city, municipality or barangay defers and practices the basic tenets of good local governance. Governance is all about the valuing of the key principles of performance, accountability, transparency and participation. Any program or project aimed at improving socio- economic and environmental conditions must be guided by these principles. Otherwise, a program or project is rudderless, and is destined to fail. And contemporary history is replete with examples of failures.

In keeping with this condition, it is important to work on making government services more accessible and responsive, engaging the public and civil society organizations (CSOs) in the decision-making and the budgetary process, and ensuring public access to information.
