PIRD and KPSD clarify roles
by Thea Kristina M. Pabuayon
Last January 4, 2000, representatives
from the Knowledge Products and Services Division (KPSD)
convened wiht the Public and iNternational RElations
Division (PIRD) staff to clarify and identify their
individual and spcific areas of responsibilities. This
is expected to improve the two divisions' relationship
and provide them with a more delineated list of roles
and functions as part of their effort in developing
a more systematized process of program implementation.
The meeting was attended by alvin Divinagracia,
Vic Guiam, and Grace Garcia of PIRD while Lumen Ching
and Marlowe Aquino represented KPSD.
Among those discussed were the support
that both divisions will give to professional societies.
This include publication and printing of journals and
proceedings which will be handled by KPSD while the
release of advertisements to the different media will
be the responsibility of PIRD.
Basically, KPSD will be in charge of producing
different knowledge products and materials that will
be utilized during seminars, workshops and other BAR
related activities. These include press releases, news
articles, press kits, cards, gifts/other paraphernalia,
video footage, etc. as will be required by the different
divisions or networks. Conceptualization and putting
up of exhibits also fall under this category. However
this will be manged and manned by PIRD.
Circulation and distribution of these
products and materials will be handled by PIRD. Specifically,
these involve reproduction and dissemination to the
different media outfits, offices, and othe recipients
as will be required.
With these clarifications and agreements,
the tow divisions hope to have a more harmonious, proficient
and orderly working relationship.
