DILG Aurora orients the Provincial and Municipal Awards Committee on the 2025 Lupon Tagapamayapa Incentives Awards (LTIA) Updated Criteria and Guidelines, on Friday, February 28, 2025 via Zoom video teleconferencing platform.
During the activity, the updated pointing system and references were presented using the LTIA updated evaluation forms. The eight municipalities in Aurora were also prepared for the upcoming 2025 assessment using the updated criteria and guidelines.
In his opening message, PD Ener P. Cambronero emphasized the significance of the Lupong Tagapamayapa. He said, "Our barangays serve as the first line of defense in conflict resolution, ensuring that disputes are settled at the grassroots level, fostering harmony, and preventing unnecessary escalation. The Lupon Tagapamayapa plays a crucial role in this mission, embodying the principles of restorative justice, community involvement, and good governance. Today, we will dive into the criteria, mechanics, and best practices that can help our barangays achieve excellence in alternative dispute resolution. More than just an award, the LTIA is a call to action—a reminder that a peaceful community starts with proactive and committed leaders."
LTIA Focal Persons, LGOO V Clarissa G. Hess and LGOO II Gerald Philip DC. Esteves thoroughly explained the assessment criteria, documents to be submitted, frequently asked questions, and the LTIA Indicative Schedule to the P/MAC. A walkthrough on the Enhanced LTIA Information System Version 2 was also conducted to level the knowledge of the end-users - its features, user functions, process flow were discussed
The LTIA is a DILG recognition program that highlights the Katarungang Pambarangay as a grassroots indigenous conflict resolution method and rewards lupons for excellent performance.
More than just an award, the LTIA is a call to action—a reminder that a peaceful community starts with proactive and committed leaders.
