The Philippine Institute for Development Studies, through the Socioeconomic Research Portal for the Philippines (SERP-P) project, will hold a virtual forum on May 5, 2022, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 NN via Cisco Webex. This public event themed “Learning and Moving Forward from the COVID-19 Pandemic: Recommendations for the Incoming Administration” will feature studies of some SERP-P partner-institutions. It is the first installment of the SERP-P knowledge-sharing webinar series.
SERP-P (https://serp-p.pids.gov.ph/) is an online knowledge resource developed and maintained by the Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS). It contains socioeconomic studies and materials produced by PIDS, government agencies, research and academic institutions, and international organizations based in the Philippines. Its establishment in 2000 is in line with the Institute’s mandates of providing a common link between the government and research institutions and establishing an open-access repository of socioeconomic information that policymakers and development practitioners, researchers, educators, and students can use. The SERP-P Network has more than 50 partner-institutions to date.
