ABOUT THE COVER AND THEME
The perfect form of the dome has endured as a symbol of great human achievement from
the time of the Pantheon until this day. It is a place where people converge to discuss andagree on issues that are important to them. Some cultures even consider it as a symbol of theuniverse enclosing a sanctuary where God and man meet.
The NCPAG dome reflects this history and signifies the relationships that the Collegestrives to build and intensify as it takes on new challenges in the fulfillment of its mandate. Thedome is where the students, faculty, staff and guests assemble to celebrate the College’s mostimportant events. As the College steps into an era of greater expectations brought about by thecoming UP Centennial in 2008, the contributions of its partners are central and essential to
what the College has envisioned to achieve in the coming years.

MESSAGE
I would like to congratulate the faculty and staff of the UP National
College of Public Administration and Governance on your excellent
achievements in 2005.
I am glad that your accomplishments have been recorded for posterity.
Future generations of students and administrators will have much to learn
from you. Your theme “Forging Stable Partnerships in Managing Change”
is also a timely one. Stability and unity are certainly essential elements for
us to be able to get our national and local governance back on track for the
good of the country.
May the NCPAG continue to build on its past successes and lead the
way in public administration research and education.
Mabuhay kayong lahat!

MESSAGE
This “Annual Report” lists the activities and
achievements of NCPAG in 2005. It is of great
interest because while some of the achievements
listed here seem to have limited significance, such
as the development of a mini-forest in the back
of the NCPAG building, others have a broader
impact, like the rendering of extension services
to different government and non-governmental
institutions. Certainly, the college’s continuing pursuit of excellence in the field
of public administration and governance, both through teaching and research,
impacts the country widely and proves that NCPAG is doing its job in nation
building.
In perusing this “Annual Report,” it would be wise to note NCPAG’s
unwavering commitment to what the college’s website refers to as the NCPAG
values, such as fairness, equality and integrity. These values, along with
progressive thinking and dedication to public interest, inform and underpin all
the programs of NCPAG, academic or otherwise, and they should inform and
underpin all the programs and policies of those in the government. Only through
such unwavering commitment to these values will true and sustainable progress
take place in our country.
Congratulations to the teachers and staff of NCPAG.

Introduction by the Dean
These are interesting times for the College. These are good times as well.
The year 2005 was a year marked by our continuous efforts to build upon the hardearned gains of the College over the past 53 years. Building upon the efforts of ourpredecessors, we strengthened our local and international networks, includingthe Association of Schools of Public Administration (ASPAP) and the EasternRegional Organization of Public Administration (EROPA). We have been given atremendous boost in the arm with the assistance of the United NationsDevelopment Programme (UNDP) Fostering Democratic Governance (FDG)Programme. Our College has been designated as the implementing partner forsaid Portfolio from 2005 to 2009.
It will also be recalled that the NCPAG has been rated by the Commission onHigher Education as the Number One and only Outstanding school of Public Administration in the country. While thehonor is indeed significant and a feather in our cap, the fact is that being Number One carries with it tremendousresponsibilities. NCPAG, therefore, continues to play a central role in shaping the agenda of the discourse and praxisof public administration and good governance in the Philippines.
It is within this context that our Annual Report for 2005 focuses on the theme “Forging Stable Partnerships in ManagingChange.” It underscores the key role of the College in leading and coordinating efforts to manage change in thePhilippine politico-administrative system through forging stable partnerships between and among the key actors andstakeholders of governance – practitioners and academics of public administration – national and local governmentagencies, non-government organizations (NGOs), people’s organizations (POs), the private and business sector,schools of public administration, and development agencies.
It has always been said that good governance is the missing link to improve public service delivery, combat corruption,pursue economic development and growth across regions which redound to national development. Indeed, thestatus quo is not acceptable. We have to work together to promote the necessary reforms at national and localgovernment levels, where organizational and institutional reforms are necessary. We need to forge partnerships inleading and implementing change and governance reform initiatives for good governance.
May I take this opportunity to thank the NCPAG family – the faculty, lecturers, the center directors and staff, library and
administrative personnel – for their continued commitment to be of service to the College and the University and to theclients of NCPAG. We are also grateful to Chancellor Sergio Cao and President Emerlinda Roman for their continuingsupport and encouragement.
Finally, indeed, 2005 has been another good year for all of us. For this we jointly thank our Lord for the many blessingsHe has bestowed upon us. We thank each and every member of the NCPAG family for the hard work, dedication,cooperation and sacrifice that led to these collective accomplishments we can all be proud of.
Indeed, these are very interesting times for public administration and governance in the Philippines.

6 NCPAG at
(now School of Urban and Regional Planning [SURP])
and the Philippine Executive Academy (now Center for
Integrative and Development Studies [CIDS])—are now
independent units of the University.
As it pioneered in the study and practice of public
administration vis-à-vis the government, the College
has broadened its perspective by expanding the
definition of the scope of public administration to
include governance for the public interest. This is the
rationale for the transformation of the College to the
National College of Public Administration and
Governance, which was approved by the U.P. Board of
Regents in its 1126th meeting on 26 November 1998.
In 2004, the Commission on Higher Education
(CHED) officially recognized NCPAG as the most
outstanding school of public administration in the
country. Along with this honor came the responsibility of
being able to lead other schools of public
administration by continually pursuing excellence in all
its endeavors.
In performing its three-fold function of instruction,
research and extension service, it has broadened its
scope from governmental management to the broader
concerns of governance, including the roles of the
private sector and civil society.

The National College of Public Administration and
Governance (NCPAG) has been the pioneering
leader of the discipline in the Philippines and in Asia
since its establishment as the Institute of Public
Administration in 1952. The College was established
as an offshoot of a contract between the University of
the Philippines and the University of Michigan to
provide training, teaching and research advocacy in
public administration mandated as an institution that
would help in nation building.
It started with a Master of Public Administration
program and a Bachelor of Arts in Public Administration
program. The Doctor of Public Administration program
was instituted in 1968. In the same year, the
undergraduate program was phased out. To respond to
the need for entry-level staff positions in the public
service, the undergraduate program was, however,
reinstituted in 1987. A Diploma program was also offered
starting the following year to enable administrators to
pursue specialized courses in public administration
without going through the long master’s degree.
Since its inception, the College has changed its
name four times—from an Institute to Graduate School
to College to National College of Public Administration
and Governance. Two major units created as part of
the College—the Institute of Environmental Planning
MOA signing between the officials of the University of the Philippines
and the University of Michigan to establish the Institute of Public Administration (1952).
7Key Areas of ACHIEVEMENT in 2005
Fostering Democratic
Governance Portfolio
Under the Government of the Philippines-United NationsDevelopment Programme (GOP-UNDP) 2005-2009 CountryProgram Action Plan (CPAP), the Fostering DemocraticGovernance Portfolio (FDGP) is focused on furthering the threestrategic reform areas that will build from the gains andlessons in previous country cooperation in the Philippines:
(i) political reform, which gives emphasis on theenhancement of democratic political institutions andprocesses that are inclusive and participatory, aresponsive and effective process of legislation,credible and efficient electoral process and aninclusive and participatory political system;
(ii) public administration reform, which pursuesadministrative reforms, anti-corruption measures,effective capacity building for national and localbureaucracy and partner institutions, and aidcoordination; and,
(iii) justice reform, which underscores a sustained andharmonized reform within and among the five pillarsof the criminal justice system – law enforcement,prosecution, courts, correctional and communityintegration.
The strategy emphasizes the progressive realization andimplementation of the standards of human rights andinstitutionalization of reforms for democratic governance. This“Rights and Reforms for Results” (RRR) approach is groundedlocally where interventions are directed not only at the nationallevel but also, more importantly, demonstrated at the level ofLGUs and grassroots communities. It calls to task the “duty-bearers” and enables them to perform their obligations inproviding the enabling environment for expandingopportunities for human freedoms and human development.
In 2005, UP-NCPAG was designated as the Programme’sImplementing Partner led by Dean Alex B. Brillantes, Jr. TheUP-NCPAG is part of the Advisory Board, which is alsocomposed of Mr. Antonio C. Fernandez, Jr. of NEDA, Dr.Emmanuel Buendia of UNDP, and some members of theGOP-UNDP Executive Committee. The Advisory Boarddecides at the policy and oversight level the direction andgeneral programme priorities for the period 2005-2009 in theCPAP.
The Implementing Partner regularly convenes with theirrespective Responsible Parties into appropriate clusters forconvergence and synchronization of project activities, as wellas proper coordination of the Annual Work Plan (AWP)implementation to ensure that programme outcomes are
being met.

Development and Ms. Rosette Librea of GOP-UNDP-PMO listen as
participating groups present their outputs.
hrough decades-long collaboration with international institutions and local organizations,
NCPAG has built for itself a long list of partners and co-workers in its aim to put excellence and integrity
into public service and governance. These partnerships have led to many researches, training programs,
and assessment programs for both the Philippine government and other international bodies to ensure that
the values that the College espouses are incorporated into the democratic processes of good governance
and public administration.

Diliman Governance Forum
Spun off from the Policy Issues Forum conducted by
the College during the term of Prof. Ledivina V. Cariño as
Dean, the Diliman Governance Forum (DGF) was
established as a venue for the discussion of current
issues, problems and concerns in public administration
and governance for the purpose of influencing policy and
decision-making in the government. It was launched in
September 2004 with the theme Reinventing,
Reengineering and Reorganizing the Bureaucracy in the
Philippines: Why We Should Be More Hopeful graced by
Prof. Emilia Boncodin, who was then the Secretary of the
Department of Budget and Management, and
Chairperson Karina Constantino-David of the Civil Service
Commission as guest speakers.
The success of the first DGF was followed by ten more
DGFs in 2004 and 2005 and the publication of the working
papers presented in three of the Fora held. The year 2005
produced seven DGFs touching on major issues in
politics, governance and economics. A continuous stream
of high profile and sometimes, even controversial,
combination of resource speakers and reactors from the
academic community, members of the civil society,
students, media and the government enhanced and
deepened the discussion among the participants and the
audience. The Forum also became a venue for concerned
Centers in the UP Diliman system, civil society groups,
international academic institutions, development
organizations, and students to work together by their
partnership in co-organizing the Forum on the topic in line
with their advocacy.

UP Diliman.
The DGF is a continuing effort of the NCPAG to deepen
analysis and initiate collective action for public
administration reforms and better governance.

9Philippine Democracy Audit Project
The Philippine Democracy Assessment Project
is part of a loose network of countries doing their
respective democracy audit using the framework of
the International Institute for Democracy and
Electoral Assistance (IDEA) Sweden. Other countries
that have either done or updating the democracy
audit are Bangladesh, El Salvador, Italy, Kenya,
Malawi, New Zealand, Peru, South Korea, United
Kingdom, Australia, and Canada.
Two papers—Free and Fair Elections, and the
Democratic Role of Political Parties—were presented
and included in a book, Philippine Democracy
Assessment, which was sponsored by the Friedrich-
Ebert-Stiftung Foundation. The forum and papers on
the study on Economic and Social Rights and
Minimizing Corruption will commence in 2006.
Asia Link Programme
The year 2005 also saw the conclusion of a
three-year project by NCPAG and its partner
institutions in the Asia Link Program. The partners
designed the “Curriculum Development for Urban
Planning and Management with emphasis on
Poverty Alleviation (UPA)” (www.itc.nl/bridge/
asialink.html) as a response to the challenge of
managing the urbanization process to ensure that it
becomes a mechanism through which poverty can be
reduced. The UPA curriculum is a component of the
Asia-Link programme that was launched at the beginning
of 2002 as an initiative by the European Union (EU) to
foster regional and multilateral networking between
higher education institutions in EU Member States and
South Asia, Southeast Asia, and China.
The project produced five educational packages on
Poverty, Land Management, Best Practices in Planning,
GIS for Poverty Mapping and Poverty Alleviation, and
New Approaches and Instruments for Poverty Alleviation.
All these packages consist of a curriculum, a set of
readings, audiovisual materials, maps, and other
pertinent teaching materials that will be enough for three
weeks of teaching each package. The materials,
resources and scope that were integrated into the
curriculum can be extended and be made relevant to any
university that decide to implement the curriculum.
Throughout the Project, NCPAG worked with the
International Institute for Geo-Information Science and
Earth Observation (ITC-The Netherlands), Faculty of
Spatial Planning (SPRING) University of Dortmund
(Germany), School of Urban Studies Wuhan University
(PRC), and University of the Philippines School of Urban
and Regional Planning (SURP).
The Philippine Democracy Audit Project hosts a Diliman Governance Forum that invited experts from the government and
civil society to speak about their assessment of how the various institutions and structures of democracy actually work in the
Philippine context. Undersecretary Chito Gascon and Institute for Political and Electoral Reform Executive Director Ramon
Casiple were among the experts who were invited to speak in the Forum.

112005 Publications
In line with its research and extension services,
NCPAG publishes books through the Publications
Office, the Centers and the members of the faculty.
Many of these publications are circulated
internationally.
In 2005, the Publications Office produced two
issues of the Philippine Journal of Public
Administration (PJPA). The PJPA is a quarterly journal
distributed to individuals and institutions dedicated to
the practice of public administration and governance
all over the world and is the official journal of NCPAG.
The Publications Office also published three other
books and three issues of the Working Paper Series, a
compilation of papers presented at three DGFs.
The faculty members also had several works
published individually. They produced eight articles
published in different books or journals, six books,
fourteen papers and six articles published in a
magazine or periodical.
Four of the College’s faculty received International
Publication Award citations from President Emerlinda
R. Roman of the University. Dean Alex B. Brillantes
received the award in 2004 and 2005. Dr. Edna
Estifania A. Co, Prof. Maria Fe Villamejor Mendoza,
and Prof. Gabrielle R. Iglesias received the 2005
International Publication Award. Dr. Co received two
awards for a journal article and another for a book
article.

Improvement of College Facilities
Major institutional partners, the NCPAG Alumni Association, and some of its individual members gave
support to the renovations in the College, which started in 2004 with the Office of the College Secretary, the
Center for Public Administration and Governance Education (C-PAGE), and the NCPAG GIS Laboratory.
This was followed in 2005 with the construction of the NCPAG Dome, where the monthly flag ceremony,
major College assemblies, and the college recognition rites are now held. In the same year, the
Publications Office, library, assembly hall, and the atrium were refurbished or constructed to maximize
college facilities for the needs of the students, faculty, and the centers.
The construction and renovation of the College’s
facilities is a reflection of the new phase of challenges
which the College is ready to address.
The newly-renovated Publications Office now features
a mini bookstore that features titles that the College
has published over the years.
13
Since its inception in 1952, NCPAG has worked with different government leaders, agencies, civil society
groups, academic institutions and international organizations to achieve its vision. Many are long-term
relationships that have been nurtured through the years. Along with the College’s growth were the increasing
support of its old partners and the increase of its network linkages in the region and other parts of the world. Over
time, its network has allowed NCPAG to increase its competence and contribute to a larger region.
In 2005 alone, NCPAG built alliances with 27 international institutions and 19 local organizations and
government agencies. The year witnessed training programs, publications, seminars and workshops,
international conferences, and researches commenced in partnership with these foreign associations. There
were also several development and technical assistance projects, research, training programs and validation
reports conducted by the College for its local linkages. Also, several major partner organizations and institutions
have now found their new home in the College to foster closer coordination with and greater involvement in
NCPAG.
The Major Partners
Under the GOP-UNDP 2005–2009 CPAP the GOP-UNDP Portfolio Management Office (PMO),which is administratively attached to UP-NCPAG as the
Implementing Partner of UNDP in the Fostering Democratic
Governance Portfolio (FDGP), serves as a catalytic agent insustaining capacity development interventions on reform
management involving fora of government and CSO partners
through direct technical support and, likewise, serves as a
technical pool in strengthening capacities of partner
institutions on specific but unified intervention elements of
good governance in the form of 6Bs: baselines, benchmarks,blueprint, best practices, benefits, broad based capacity, and
constituency building.
Through the GOP-UNDP-PMO and UP-NCPAG
partnership, the members of the Association of Schools of
Public Administration in the Philippines (ASPAP),Incorporated are provided with curriculum guidance and
training to enhance public administration education. The
project seeks to strengthen ASPAP by establishing regional
clusters and by providing capacity-building, information,education, awareness-raising initiatives, and extension
services for its member-schools.
The GOP-UNDP-PMO also sought a partnership
with the Center for Policy and Executive Development
(CPED), with the assistance of the Center for Leadership,Citizenship and Democracy (CLCD), to prepare three
publications on implementing a Rights-Based Approach
(RBA). One of these publications is the Sourcebook on
Human Rights that features a compilation of most recent
and substantive published and unpublished literature on
Human Rights and Rights-Based Approach. Another isthe Rights-Based Approach Orientation Training Manual
Towards Mainstreaming Human Rights in the
Development and Governance Processes, which is
designed to guide trainers in imparting knowledge on
RBA and in application of RBA in various aspects of
governance and development. The third publication isthe RBA Systems and Tools Manual for focal units/
persons of pertinent public and private institutions to
guide stakeholders on how to apply the principles of
RBA into their organizations.
Participants discuss and strategize work output during the Annual
Review and Programming Workshop to set the direction for 2006.
NCPAG works with different institutions, such as, the UNDP, NEDAand SWS in its quest for introducing reforms in the system.

The Eastern Regional Organization for
Public Administration (EROPA) was
established in 1960 as an organization of states,
institutions, groups and individuals whose
achievements in the field of governance and public
administration are widely recognized in the general
area of Asia and the Pacific. The organization has
had three Secretary Generals, all of whom were
prominent members of NCPAG: Dean Carlos P.
Ramos, Dean Raul P. De Guzman and Sec. Patricia
A. Sto. Tomas.
In 2005, the organization published an issue of its
official journal, the Asian Review of Public
Administration (ARPA). The ARPA has an editorial
board of representatives of EROPA member statesand individual members. It is prepared and edited
with the assistance of the NCPAG Publications Office.
With Dean Brillantes as Deputy Secretary General,
EROPA works closely with NCPAG in coordinating
and organizing many of its major programs. There arecurrently two full time and five part time members
working for EROPA, who are also members of the
NCPAG staff.
In August 2005, EROPA organized the Workshopon Community (Civil Society) Engagement in PublicFinance at the Sub-national held in Brisbane, Australia.It brought together EROPA members to discuss howcommunities and the civil society can get involved in
Brazil’s Minister of State of Cities, Olivio Dutra, whose innovations in

The workshops discussedentry points for people participation in thesesectors of governance, while case studies fromThailand, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Australia andthe Philippines brought the delegation to fullyrecognize that participatory budgeting and socialauditing are fundamental mechanisms to engagecitizens towards the realization of the MDGs.
NCPAG worked closely with EROPA to
produce the conference papers and news
bulletin for the Vietnam Conference 2005 where
EROPA members were convened to discuss thetheme, The Role of Public Administration and
Governance Stakeholders in Attaining the
Millennium Development Goals.
Another major partner visible in the College
is the Association of Schools of PublicAdministration in the Philippines(ASPAP), Inc., a non-stock, non-profit
national organization of colleges and universities
in the Philippines offering public administration/
management education programs. ASPAP was
organized on 12 February 1979 and registered
with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on 5 December 1980. The College serves as the
Secretariat of the Association with Dean
Brillantes as its Secretary-General.

The GOP-UNDP recognizes the UP NCPAG and
ASPAP as key actors in implementing the FDGP. The
5-year project entitled, Enhancing the Capacities of
Schools of Public Administration in the Philippines, has
several accomplishments in 2005 that significantly
advanced its long-term goals.
During the third quarter, the partnership conducted
a curriculum review and enhancement of ASPAP
schools that set core competencies of the teaching of
the program, including the teaching of Governance and
Development that focused on the MDGs and recent
trends of governance.
ASPAP also held several conferences and fora as
well as hosted one DGF on the localization and
implementation of the RBAs and MDGs to local
governance. The partnership was also able to
develop tools and infrastructure to establish regional
chapter/cluster for ASPAP and develop a guidebook
on how PA schools can extend technical and extension
assistance to strengthen its members’ capacity to be
greatly involved in local development. The development
and update of the ASPAP and NCPAG website also
created stronger linkages and increase visibility among
the ASPAP members, local government units (LGUs) and
national government agencies (NGAs).
Started in March 1998, the Philippine Nonprofit
Sector Project (PNSP) is a project of the System
Office of the Ugnayan ng Pahinungod in partnership with
the Johns Hopkins University and is funded by the Ford
Foundation through the management of the UP
Foundation.
The PNSP is housed at NCPAG and is directed and
led by Dr. Ledivina V. Cariño, a faculty member of the
College. The Project has a Board of Advisers with
members who have been veterans and major
contributors of the civil society sector in the country. It is
run by a team of voluntary research consultants, many of
whom are faculty members of NCPAG, a small full-time
staff, and survey contractors.

development and sustenance of the proper training of
public managers and to carry out the best practices in
public administration towards the College’s vision.
The NCPAG AA is currently led by its President,
Herbert Constantine M. Bautista, Quezon City Vice
Mayor. The alumni has continually given support to
many of the College’s efforts to improve its facilities
and develop symposia, such as, co-sponsoring two
DGFs in 2005, as a way to enhance public discussion

Prof. Leonor Magtolis-Briones, a senior faculty member
of the College, was chosen by the President of the United
Nations General Assembly to represent civil society at
the 2005 Millennium Plus Five (M+5) Summit from 14 to16
September 2005 which served as the High-Level Plenary
Meeting of the 60th session of the UN General Assembly.
The Professor’s speech was delivered during the
Financing for Development Meeting of the Summit.
Professor Briones’ message in the 2005 M+5 Summit
was, “The Millennium Development Goals will not be
reached by 2015.” Professor Briones articulated the
views of civil society regarding financing the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs), covering domestic
resources, foreign investment, ODA, trade and debt.
According to Professor Briones, after five years of
adopting the MDGs, civil society organizations have
found that the Millennium Declaration has not been able
to deliver its promises and “the financial resources
identified under the Monterrey Consensus have not all
been generated.”
Aside from her accomplishments in the academe
and as a former Treasurer of the Republic of the
Philippines, Prof. Briones has been deeply involved
in civil society given her current status as co-convenor
of Social Watch Philippines and as a member of the
International Coordinating Committee of Social Watch.
The world-wide network monitors the implementation
of government commitments to social development,
particularly the Copenhagen Summit and the MDGs.
Professor Briones has also been an advocate for
adequate financing for the MDGs in many parts of the
world.
She was also a member of the Philippine
delegation to the preparatory meetings, as well as the
Summit on Financing Development held in Monterey,
Mexico, in 2002. Since then, she has participated in
assessments on the implementation of the MDGs in
roundtable discussions and conferences at the United
Nations in New York.
She called on the heads of states and
leaders of governments to take action on the
agreements on financing the efforts to reach the
MDGs by 2015; thus, she ended her speech
with:
“Promises, promises. This (UN)
General Assembly is not the time for
more promises. It is time to fulfill old
and new promises. The poor of the
world cannot wait until 2015.
Fulfill your promises!”

Center for Public Administration
and Governance Education (C-PAGE)
The Faculty
The faculty is an invaluable resource in NCPAGsince its members are the key implementers of the
College’s programs and have always stood at the
forefront of working with our partners.
There are 26 full-time faculty members in NCPAG with
six of them holding concurrent administrative and
teaching positions. For the academic year 2005-2006, two
faculty members were on special detail --Dr. Ma.Concepcion P. Alfiler as Vice President for Finance and
Administration of the U.P. System and Dr. Victoria A.
Bautista as Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs of the
U.P. Open University. Prof. Emilia T. Boncodin, who was
on secondment to the Department of Budget andManagement, returned to NCPAG in October 2005 as a
regular faculty member.
By the end of 2005, individual members of the faculty
have completed 26 research and publications projects
with 14 more ongoing, mostly financed by external
funding institutions. Under the allocation of the U.P.
Central Administration to NCPAG, P72,250 wasallocated for the Faculty Development Fund and
P70,370 for the Research Dissemination Grant. These
funds were used to send Prof. Noriel Christopher Tiglao
to the International Conference on Computers in Urban
Planning and Urban Management in the University
College London, England and Prof. Edna Estifania Co tothe conference on Redesigning the State? Political
Corruption in Development Policy and Practice at the
University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom
to deliver their papers.
Lecturers, with a rich background in the academe,
government and civil society, were invited to teach

projects in both local and foreign conferences. Featured here is

different courses in the College to foster a richer
academic environment for its students. For the
academic year 2005-2006, there were 13 lecturers
during the first semester and 12 on the second. In the
course of the academic year, several resource
persons from the government and the civil society were
invited to deliver special lectures to BAPA or MPA
classes. These special lectures covered a wide range
of topics from reforms needed in the human resource
development in the bureaucracy to discussions on the
electoral system.
The Students
For the Academic Year 2005-2006, there were 712
enrollees in the first semester and 678 during the
second semester in NCPAG.
Enrolment figures in the first semester for the BAPA
program showed that there were 312 old students, 58
new students who passed the UPCAT, 11 entering with
VAAS status, and 92 shiftees and transferees for a total
of 473 BAPA student enrollees for the academic year.
The increase of the total enrolment for this year is
largely attributed to the number of DPA students who
have re-enrolled to work on their dissertations. This
shift is a result of a more proactive and aggressive
move by C-PAGE to follow up on its doctoral program
candidates to fully comply with course requirements.
The synergy among the College and University officials is integral in
consolidating both the College’s and University’s goals. Shown here is UP
Diliman Chancellor Sergio Cao during an orientation with the NCPAG
Executive Committee, faculty members, and student representatives.

NCPAG, signs an autograph after the Impeachment Forum
organized by the NCPAG Student Council.
T he C-PAGE, through the leadership of Prof. Mila A. Reforma as College Secretary and Director of Studies, implements NCPAG’s mission to be the center for excellence in education for public administration and governance.
It has three major academic programs. The Bachelor of Arts in Public Administration (BAPA) is a four-year coursethat provides sound theoretical knowledge and practical skills in public administration using the core values ofaccountability, service and integrity designed to prepare students for careers in government or in civil societyorganizations. The Master of Public Administration (MPA) program gives the basic groundwork of the different theories,concepts, perspectives, models and approaches in public management to equip them for higher and more complexresponsibilities in public service. The student can pursue any of the four options under the program. For highly qualifiedstudents, the Doctor of Public Administration (DPA) is a program designed for teaching, research and consultancy, as well
as for managerial positions in government and public service-oriented institutions.

Center for Leadership, Citizenshipand Democracy (CLCD)
PAMANA: The U.P. Anthology of Socio-
Political Thought Since 1872 is a multi-disciplinary
research project consisting of 21 volumes that contain
the ideas and opinions of Filipinos concerning the
nation, society, polity, economy, culture and national
development. The project was initiated in 1993 with the
complete editorial book plan in 1998, and is published
by the University of the Philippines Press which has
produced five books to date. In 2005, CLCD finished
two additional volumes—The Book on the War and the
Japanese Occupation and the Book on Economic
Development—which will be released in 2006.
The Public Lecture Series on the Philippine
Presidency and Administration started in 1992, at the
end of the Aquino administration. The first volume was a self-
assessment by the administration on its performance and
achievements through its leadership and stewardship of the
government after the 1986 Revolution, and its legacy to the
nation and succeeding administrations. In 2005, the CLCD
published Ramos Administration Alternative Assessment,
Vol. 2 as the working paper of the Public Lecture Series on
the Philippine Presidency and Administration, focusing on the
presidency and administration of President Fidel V. Ramos
and his cabinet members. This book includes reactions of
other stakeholders on the performances of the different
departments under the Ramos Administration.
The 8th DGF is one of the well-attended DGFs that featured notable personalities involved in the fight against corruption such as Archbishop
Oscar V. Cruz of the Catholic Bishop’s Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), one of the leading advocates of the fight against corruption.

fellowships, organizes public lectures, and publishes books resulting from the lectures and other studies. Its
programs are undertaken along the key areas of leadership; citizenship; civil society; and, Filipino democracy
and its institutions.
As a tribute to the great men of this country, CLCD
launched the Book of Memoirs series to ascribe
relevance and timelessness of their works featuring not
only men in politics but those who exemplified true
leadership in their own social sphere. Starting in 2005, the
CLCD started to document the life of Dean Alfredo Juinio,
who was the Dean of the Department of Civil Engineering,
College of Engineering, University of the Philippines
Diliman from 1970 to 1979.
The CLCD is the lead convenor of the
comprehensive Electoral System Assessment
Study under the UNDP programme on FDGP, which
started in September 2005. The Center also heads the
National and Local Leadership component of the
Organizational Study of the COMELEC and its deputies.
Under this programme, the CLCD is also undertaking the
COMELEC Seminar-Workshop on Strategic Planning,
which aims to assist COMELEC in formulating its
three-year Strategic Plan and Action Plans to be
implemented by its offices at various levels.
Through the Seminar on Political
Leadership at the Local Government Level, CLCD
presented the results of the study of Dr. Perla
Legaspi on Profiles of Political Leadership at the
Local Government Level. The CLCD Research
Report Series: Profiles of Political Leaders at the
Local Government Level was produced as the

27he CLRG has been at the forefront of research, consulting services and facilitated learning on local
autonomy and decentralization in the country since 1965. Emerging from the Local Government Center (LGC)
created through Republic Act 4223, CLRG has expanded its scope to include regional governance and urban
and metropolitan management. Under the current leadership of Prof. Simeon A. Ilago, it collaborates with localand international institutions in promoting decentralization and publishing materials for the benefit of local
government and regional units. CLRG also undertakes research and extension activities on management
training; environmental management; population development and management; area-based planning; local
legislation; and barangay administration and development.
CLRG continuously works with regional leadersthrough different training sessions and workshops.Dubbed as the next step in poverty reduction in thedifferent regions, the Capacity Building for LocalPoverty Reduction Action Team (LPRAT) in theAutonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM)aimed to build up local government capacity and washeld in partnership with the British Council Manila and theLocal Government Academy in coordination with theARMM. The Workshop on Breaking a CommonGround for Visayas Development, on the other hand,was set to develop and advance a unified andcomprehensive Visayas Islands DevelopmentFramework. Sponsored by the Population ServicesPilipinas Inc. the Workshop on Gender andDevelopment (GAD) was held to prepare GADAgenda/Plans for Mandaue City, Cagayan de Oro Cityand Iligan City in 2005.

Center for Policy andExecutive Development (CPED)
Since 2004, the Center has conducted three
batches of a weekly classroom lecture that forms the
Academic Component of the Congressional
Internship Program for Young Muslim Leaders
being funded by the USAID-GEM. The weekly six-
hour lecture, workshops, group presentations, and
discussions cover courses on Public Policy
Development, Analysis and Advocacy module, and
on Policy Research in Support of Program and
Project Development and Management. The
participants are students from ARMM and other
provinces of Mindanao.
In 2004, CPED was awarded a one-year contract
by the DSWD to serve as the External NGO
Monitor of KALAHI-CIDSS: KKB Project. The
purpose of the External NGO Monitoring is to provide
an independent source of qualitative information on
KALAHI-CIDSS implementation from a selected
number of project locations to complement the
information on inputs and outputs collected through the
Project’s management information system. CPED,
through the appointed NGO monitors, was able to
cover all the barangays in eleven recipient
municipalities from eight provinces using a common
set of instruments. It delivered monthly and quarterly
monitoring reports integrating all the findings to the
KALAHI-CIDSS: KKB National Project Director. The
contract was funded by the World Bank and was
completed in June 2005.
Another major project in 2005 is the UNDP
Project for Rights-Based Approach (RBA) to
Development wherein CPED has been
commissioned to produce three major publications.
One of these is the Sourcebook on Human Rights
on the most recent and substantive published and
unpublished literature on Human Rights and Rights-
Based Approach. The Rights-Based Approach
Orientation Training Manual Towards
Mainstreaming Human Rights in the
Development and Governance Processes and
RBA Systems and Tools Manual are
publications on implementing the RBA in the planning
framework of the local governments, executive
government agencies, and private entities. These
publications will be distributed to all stakeholders in
the implementation of the project nationwide.
Congressional Internship participants undergo several workshop and
training sessions on policy development tools and techniques.
CPED, through Dr. Joel V. Mangahas, has also been
engaged by the Asian Development Bank to develop a
Process Map on the Anti-Money Laundering
Regime in the country. The Process Map will essentially
inform key stakeholders about how money laundering
takes place; the regime’s vulnerable areas; the existing
policy measures and institutional arrangements to
address the issues; and the policy and institutional gaps.
Parallel to this, CPED has been engaged by the
USAID through the Management Systems International to
develop and conduct a Training Course for
Compliance Officers of covered institutions in Anti-
Money Laundering with focus on private banks. The
training program’s main objective is to develop a
sustainable course which will continue to be offered on a
for-profit basis. The project is a collaborative effort of
various institutions namely: UP NCPAG, UP College of
Law, and UP College of Business Administration; Anti-
Money Laundering Council (AMLAC) Secretariat; and, the
Association of Bank Compliance Officers of the
Philippines (ABCOMP).
CPED is also conducting the Executive Profiling
Project to generate a database that provides a general
profile of senior executives in key government agencies
from 1986 to the present in terms of their educational,
professional, and social backgrounds. The Project is
funded by the Japanese Government through Kobe
University.
29
Formerly the Center for Policy and Administrative Development (CPAD), CPED provides research, training, and
extension or consultancy services to national government agencies, public enterprises, other local institutions
and international organizations on policy research and analysis on issues of current interest by public officials or
institutions; organization and management studies; bureaucracy-watch; program and project evaluation; and,
executive management and development. CPED was created by the College as its response to the challenges
posed by national events and developments in the areas of public policy, executive development, development
administration and program/project management. The CPED is currently led by Dr. Joel V. Mangahas.
As external monitors of the KALAHI-CIDSS Project, CPED staff
regularly go on the field to interview local stakeholders for the
project reports.

Financial Profile
Components of External Funding for the College
placed in the UPPAF, CY 2005 (in Php)
NCPAG receives revenues from both Internal
Operating Budget from the U.P. Central
Administration allotment and the funds facilitated by
the U.P. Public Administration Research and
Extension Services Foundation, Inc. (UPPAF).
For the calendar year 2005, NCPAG and its
Centers had a total Internal Operating Budget of
P34,735,000, divided into Personal Services, MOOE
and Capital Outlay.
The UPPAF was established during the term of
Dr. Raul P. de Guzman as Dean in 1981 and has been
an alternative source of funding. The Foundation also
assists the College in its financial endeavors through
resources generated from its research and extension
projects by its faculty members or its Centers.
The sources of NCPAG’s revenues for CY 2005.
In 2005, the Foundation collected a total of
P15,815,094.85 from the projects and programs that
went under it. NCPAG receives its external funding
from different local and foreign institutional partners.
Most of these revenues are project-based and the
resources are directly spent for projects. The rest of
the expenses in 2005 covered renovations, repairs,
staff extensions and the procurement of additional
research services for the College. The UNDP-GOP-
PMO contributed a total of P5,064,501.50 into the
UPPAF for its projects that the College directly
implemented under the Program.
Aside from these two main fund sources, the
different NCPAG Centers, under special
arrangements, receive direct funding from partner
institutions. CLRG undertook several projects
amounting to P 25,031, 859.55 in 2005, which were
managed by the Center and not accounted in the
UPPAF account, like the Capacity Building for Local
Poverty Reduction Action Team (LPRAT) in ARMM,
the International Conference on Federalism and
Multiculturalism and the Project on Improving
Delivery of Extension Services in the Philippines
conducted by the CLRG.
