PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION |
|
The BACH Council, which will be at the helm of the entire BIBO BOHOL Program, will partner with the Provincial Government of Bohol through its Center for Culture and Arts Development (CCAD) for program implementation. It will also partner with the KILOS ASENSO MOVEMENT of the National Government in stressing SELF RELIANCE and the BAYANIHAN SPIRIT in the conduct of its projects. Other prospective partner institutions are the MET Museum, Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), Municipal LGUs, private resort owners and tour operators, and such other agencies and entities as may be identified later.
The BACH Council will assume a leadership role in program implementation. BIBO Bohol will occupy a relatively large portion of its administrative concerns, although it will not be the Council's sole concern. The following graphic illustration shows the equally prominent status occupied by BIBO Bohol, the Provincial Government, and the metropolitan Museum of Manila among the programs and projects under the BIBO BOHOL program
