DILG: Over ₱20 Billion in Barangay Projects Support PBBM Vision of Peace and Progress
In line with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s commitment to lasting peace and inclusive development, the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) continues to lead the implementation of the Support to Barangay Development Program (SBDP), bringing real and visible progress to communities across the country.
From 2022 to 2025, a total of 5,590 SBDP projects worth over P20-billion have been completed in more than 4,000 barangays nationwide. The projects include: 2,933 farm-to-market roads; 877 water and sanitation systems; 510 school buildings; 606 health stations; and 664 electrification projects.
The DILG said these investments are part of the government’s broader strategy to building stronger communities from the ground up and sustain peace and development, especially in formerly conflict-affected areas and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM).
In his State of the Nation Address, the President highlighted the government’s success in ending insurgency and stressed the importance of ongoing development efforts to maintain peace. The SBDP plays a key role in this strategy by funding projects that improve infrastructure and services at the barangay level.
The SBDP budget has been increasing, allowing more substantial investments per barangay—from ₱4 million in 2022 to ₱7.5 million in 2024, then continuing to provide strong support in 2025. This sustained funding is essential in ensuring barangays have the infrastructure and services needed to support peace and development.
The DILG urges local government units and communities to continue working together to maximize the benefits of SBDP and help build stronger, safer barangays for all Filipinos. ###
