The DSWD Field Office 9 officially concluded the five-day training for enumerators in all of its clusters in Zamboanga Peninsula yesterday.
A total of 1,006 enumerators had to go through a five-day training in order to prepare them in the upcoming household assessment. The training, which was conducted simultaneously, began on November 11, while the final leg ended last week with Zamboanga and Pagadian’s third and last batches of enumerators.
291 enumerators (per province) will be assigned in Zamboanga del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur, while 218 will be deployed in Zamboanga City, 175 for Zamboanga Sibugay, and 31 for Isabela City.
The enumerators shall serve as the key persons who shall collect data on the ground. Reporting directly to the Area Supervisors, they are expected to maintain confidentiality of all documents, information, and other matters related to Listahanan. Particularly, they must ensure completeness, correctness, and accuracy of all accomplished Household Assessment Forms (HAFs) to be used during the data-collection activity.
Listahanan, also known as the National Household Targeting System for Poverty Reduction (NHTS-PR), is an information management system that identifies who and where the poor are nationwide. It aims to establish a socio-economic database of poor households to be used by national government agencies (NGAs) and other stakeholders as reference in the formulation and implementation of their respective social protection programs and services. ###
