Calbayognons are not only found within the boundaries of the city but are also spread across the Philippines and the world, contributing their skills, resources, and stories of resilience in many different fields. While they continue to carry pride in their roots, the city government recognizes the need for a systematic and meaningful way to connect with them, document their presence, and engage their talents for the benefit of Calbayogโs growth.
The ๐-๐๐จ๐ง๐๐ค ๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐๐ฅ provides the foundation by establishing a secure platform where Calbayognons outside the city can voluntarily register and update their demographic and professional information. This database ensures inclusivity, accessibility, and compliance with data privacy laws, serving as the cityโs bridge to its global citizens.
Complementing this is the ๐-๐๐จ๐ง๐๐ค-๐๐๐ฆ๐ข ๐๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐๐ข๐ ๐ง, a communications and community engagement initiative that uses storytelling, social media, and partnerships with schools, alumni associations, and churches to encourage wide participation. By showcasing successful Calbayognons and OFWs, the campaign inspires others to connect while reinforcing the sense of pride and belonging in the global Calbayognon identity.
Finally, the ๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ฒ๐จ๐ (๐๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ, ๐๐๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง & ๐๐๐ข๐ง๐ฏ๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฆ) transforms these connections into concrete contributions for local development. Through investment incentives, scholarships, donation drives, mentorships, and support programs for Calbayognons abroad, the initiative creates pathways for diaspora members to give back and take part in shaping the cityโs future. Priority areas such as education, health, livelihood, and infrastructure are emphasized, ensuring that the collective efforts of Calbayognons have lasting impact.
