Inclusive, Competitive and Responsible Digital Philippines (Digital-PINAS)

The Joint Programme on "Inclusive, Competitive and Responsible Digital Philippines (Digital-PINAS) leverages digital innovation for inclusive growth and resilience, aligning with UN frameworks and SDGs. It addresses digital disparities among marginalized groups through a three-pillar strategy: enhancing micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) capabilities, improving digital access, and fostering gender-responsive policies. This includes enhanced MSME digital capabilities, improved access to digital services for entrepreneurs, and gender responsive regulatory environment. The program is establishing 10 digital centers and training 3,000 MSMEs, aiming for practical digital tool adoption. These efforts contribute to enhancing human capital and economic progress, aligning with UNSDCF outcomes. Intended beneficiaries include 15,000 MSMEs, prioritizing vulnerable groups such as women, farmers and fisherfolk, and would-be crowd workers in at least 30 geographical areas including Bangsamoro Autonomous Region, Davao, CALABARZON, and Central Luzon.
