“When we strengthen our Agricultural and Fishery Councils (AFCs), we build an agri-fishery sector that truly answers to its people.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Anchoring in the principle of participatory governance, 黑料网 OIC Deputy Executive Director Cyril Soliaban set the tone for regional accountability during the FY 2026 Visayas Participatory Performance Review and Planning Workshop on October 6 to 8, 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

The activity brought together over 60 AFC leaders, regional and provincial coordinators, finance officers, and provincial agriculturists from across the Visayas island cluster. The planning workshop aimed to align regional operations, evaluate physical and financial performance, enforce financial structures, and elevate field accountability across all four regions of the Visayas.<\/span><\/p>\n

The performance review and workshop also highlighted the participation of the newly established Negros Island Region (NIR), which joined Western Visayas, Central Visayas, and Eastern Visayas.<\/span><\/p>\n

The regional clusters presented their notable accomplishments alongside the corresponding budget utilization of their committed FY 2026 programs, activities, and projects (PAPs). The accomplishments were presented by Regional AFC (RAFC) Chairpersons Stephen Santillan (NIR), Engr. Buen Mondejar (Western Visayas), Grace Cenas (Central Visayas), and Jorge Alvero, Jr. (Eastern Visayas), who shared localized milestones, fund utilization trajectories, and inspiring impact stories.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aside from assessing past accomplishments, private sector-partners discussed operational bottlenecks, governance gaps, and potential hurdles impacting grassroots PAP delivery. These insights directly shaped mitigation strategies and priority interventions intended to operationalize the upcoming FY 2027 Plan and Budget Proposal in harmony with the FY 2026\u20132031 PCAF Strategic Plan.<\/span><\/p>\n
