Africa-Press – Angola. Municipal and communal administrators and public managers from the province of Namibe reinforced, this Tuesday, their competences in terms of implementation of the Integrated Plan for Local Development and Combating Poverty (PIDLCP), during a seminar.
Organized by the Ministry of Social Action, Family, Promotion of Women and Gender Equality, the training addressed various topics related to support for vulnerable families, as well as evaluating the implementation of the said program in the five municipalities of Namibe province.
Speaking at the end of the seminar, the minister of Social Action, Family, Promotion of Women and Gender Equality, Ana Paula de Sacramento Neto, said that participants are better able to respond to information related to the implementation of the Integrated Plan for Local Development and Combating Poverty.
He stated that there are still some difficulties in the operationalization of the program, above all, in the information system and there is a need for an alignment of the actions to be implemented.
“This is a job that will be carried out in all the municipalities to provide the country with information about the potential of each one in the execution of the program and to present to citizens what has been done”, explained the minister.
In turn, the governor of Namibe, Archer Mangueira, recognized that the training action will fine-tune methods and improve criteria on how to manage government instruments, so that citizens can benefit from the resources made available in this programme.
Archer Mangueira defended the need for the plan to be associated with other actions that focus on improving people’s living conditions, with a focus on productive inclusion, suggesting the possibility of transforming the plan to combat poverty into a wealth creation program.
“In our province we already have examples of citizens who have benefited from the resources and are developing small businesses, with productive inclusion as the center”, he said.
