He also presented a short history of LTIA, tips on documenting LTIA entry, and the indicative schedule for this year's LTIA implementation.
The activity ended with a Q&A forum which served as an avenue for the Lupon Secretaries and Lupon Members to ask questions and clarify concerns regarding the program and the Katarungang Pambarangay (KP) process as well.
The LTIA is an annual awards program that recognizes the most outstanding lupon that have demonstrated exceptional performance in resolving disputes using KP at the barangay level.
