REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AGENDA Davao Region: The Rising Global Frontier Out of the Philippine Backdoor


The preparation of the Regional Development Agenda (RDA) 2010-2020 is among the legacies of Secretary Ralph G. Recto as carried out by the NEDA Regional Development Office. This departs from the usual consultative process adopted in the formulation of the Medium-Term Regional Development Plan (MTRDP), as the RDA is purely a NEDA output. This document aims to provide the succeeding Administration with a starting document to guide the formulation of the Successor Regional Development Plans. Guided by principles of sustainable development, economic integration, decentralization, public-private partnership, interplay of market forces, social equity and justice, and cultural diversity, the RDAs take off from existing planning documents such as the National Framework for Regional Development, the National Framework for Physical Planning, the Regional Development Plans, and Regional Physical Framework Plans. The RDA articulates the region's highest priorities based on an intersectoral and inter-area analysis of the region and guided by the desired development scenario. The essential ingredients which include the development strategies, challenges and preconditions to achieve the regional development agenda are highlighted. Technical Notes are appended to the RDA, containing the detailed analysis of the planning environment and the issues at hand.
