Recognizing the need for a solid database to serve as reference on evidence-based planning, the Municipality of Lauaan recently started enumeration for the Community Based Monitoring System (CBMS) in all its barangays. The CBMS is a survey that covers all households in the locality, thereby enabling the LGU to generate household-level data that may correctly indicate the economic and social status of its constituents.

Earlier, the municipality signed a Memorandum of Agreement with the CBMS Network to implement the program. DILG Antique, being part of the CBMS Network, is tasked with conducting the series of CBMS trainings that includes data collection, data processing and poverty mapping, and Barangay and Municipal Comprehensive Development Planning.
