ICT-Based Needs Assessment Analysis in Partner Community

Determining the needs of the participants in a community extension program prioritizes the topics that they will be interested to attend. It is critical to identify interconnected needs and their underlying causes in order to design empowering and long-term programs and projects to assist people in improving their quality of life. Thus, using consultative meetings and focus group discussions, this qualitative study determined the community problems of Barangay Tanza, Estancia, Iloilo, on the ICT related program. Participants included 50 residents from the sectors of fisherfolks, farmers, women, youth, barangay officials, and 4Ps beneficiaries. This ensures that participants are interested in various topics presented in the program. The findings of the study were the basis for a proposed annual extension program plan for June 2021 to October 2025.
