THE ROLE OF THE
LOCAL
GOVERNMENT
AND THE YOUTH
IN DEVELOPMENT
The local government is also called
the governments of the parts of a
nation. Its levels vary according to
the political pattern and experience
of each and every nation like the
Philippines.
In unitary states like the

Philippines,
the supervision over local
governments is done by the
national government.
National development is achieved
through an effective partnership
between the national and local
governments, each one
performing a service as an aspect
of a function which it can
adequately perform.
The LGC devolves to all local

units the administration of
five basic services:
agriculture, health, social
welfare, maintenance of
public works and highways
and environmental
protection.

The PHILIPPINE YOUTH
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
2017-2022
The PYDP serves as the guiding framework for a
unified action among the youth and youth-serving
groups, agencies, and other institutions in the
pursuit of youth economic and social
responsibility.
It defines the duties, obligations and

accountability of the national and local
governments to address the economic, social,
cultural, civil, and political rights of the youth.
Why is there a need
for the PYDP 2017-
2022?
The PYDP enjoins all state duty bearers at the national and
local levels to maximize the participation of the youth in
nation-building as both responsible citizens and deserving
beneficiaries.
Ultimately, it informs other development partners of the

rewarding social, economic, and ethical opportunities of fully
engaging the youth in their respective programs.
The National Youth Commission in line with its mandate “sole

policy-making coordinating body of all youth-related
institutions, programs, projects, and activities of the
government” (Republic Act No. 8044), is the main proponent of
the PYDP.
