Who We Are

The National Convergence Initiative for Sustainable Rural Development (NCI-SRD) is the government’s response to the fragmented delivery of rural development services. It is a strategy to improve, conserve, protect, and rehabilitate natural resources through the development and implementation of environment-friendly enterprises and livelihood opportunities.

The Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2017-2022 directs the government to complement strategic efforts with environmental and governance strategies through the national convergence initiatives using the ridge-to-reef approach and the sustainable integrated area development (SIAD) for the sustainable management of natural resources and rural development.

 

Vision

An efficient and effective strategy for rural development towards sustainable agriculture, forestry and fishery-based economy, social equity, ecological integrity, clean and healthy environment.

 

Mission

To complement and mainstream efforts of NCI-SRD agencies and other stakeholders for rural development through establishment of convergence areas using the ridge-to-reef approach.
