The Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS) kicked off its information caravan in Western Visayas, leveraging its Socioeconomic Research Portal for the Philippines (SERP-P) and PIDS Corners networks. This initiative underscores PIDS’ commitment to broadening policy research information dissemination beyond Metro Manila.
In a bid to enhance information dissemination and touch base with stakeholders in Region 6, the Research Information Department conducted a series of in-person engagements. Through these interactions, stakeholders became aware of the Institute’s open-access initiatives through SERP-P and showcased the institute’s wealth of publications as invaluable resources for research endeavors.
The caravan was led by PIDS Senior Research Specialist and SERP-P coordinator Ezekiel Nicomedes and PIDS Librarian Jasmine James Cortez
