Information Improves Lives in the Philippines
Communities in the Philippines are enjoying benefits made possible by accurate, current information about their living conditions: job training programs for youth; new water and sanitation facilities; small loans for family businesses; schools for teen drop-outs; daycare centres; footbridges to connect isolated villages to roads and markets; telemedicine programs; school food programs; subsidized health care.
These are just a few of the concrete measures taken to improve lives in thousands of villages, municipalities, and provinces in the Philippines. The goal: reduce poverty. The means: provide the most needed services to the neediest families.
