To foster stronger values-driven governance and enhance public service across the region, the Development Academy of the Bangsamoro (DAB), through its Center of Knowledge Management (CKM), recently gathered representatives from key Bangsamoro Offices, and Agencies for the Knowledge Exchange Forum on Gender and Development in Kidapawan City. The multi-day activity brought together members of the GAD Focal Point System and various attached offices under the Office of the Chief Minister, including BDI, BLA, BICTO, BIO, CSEA, OOBC, OSC, and TMS, to explore how Islamic faith and Bangsamoro cultural heritage can be actively integrated to advance GAD outcomes, empower families, and reinforce ethics in the workplace.
Facilitated by Resource Speaker Mohammad U. Balimbingan, SCL of the Bangsamoro Women Commission, the forum provided a meaningful space for cross-office dialogue on aligning public service with core Islamic values. Discussions focused on principles such as adl (justice), amanah (trust and responsibility), rahmah (compassion), and shura (consultation), examining how these faith anchors promote equity, dignity, and workplace accommodation. Participants reviewed existing agency programs, including faith-aligned literacy efforts, inclusive digital access, and community outreach, to highlight best practices, address implementation gaps, and promote shared household decision-making for family well-being.
The forum also addressed workplace ethics through structured reflections on Integrity, Professionalism, and Accountability, allowing participants to evaluate internal operational challenges and identify practical GAD mainstreaming opportunities within their respective offices. To maintain momentum beyond the event, participating agencies finalized action plans and established a sustainable Community of Practice (CoP). This initiative strengthens inter-office collaboration, peer mentoring, and joint knowledge management platforms across BARMM. Through these continuous learning initiatives, DAB reaffirms its commitment to developing a values-centered, inclusive, and professional bureaucracy for the Bangsamoro community.
