While CDD is typically associated with KALAHI-CIDSS, a development program of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) where CDD is consciously applied, the paper argues that a similar approach has been practiced in a local community in Cebu through a people\u2019s organization which is outside the scope of the KALAHI-CIDSS. To elaborate this point, the paper first briefly reviews the history and concepts guiding CDD as a development model. It then discusses instances where CDD is consciously practiced in KALAHI-CIDSS community-partners within the provinces of Negros. This is followed by a discussion of how a people\u2019s organization in the Municipality of Aloguinsan in the Province of Cebu practiced what I contend as a CDD approach, albeit outside the scope of DSWD\u2019s program. While existing literature in the country concerning CDD talks about the need for such an approach to be institutionalized, all the interventions so far refer to CDD initiatives of the KALAHI-CIDSS. This paper further expands the discussion by not only broadening the meaning and scope of CDD but also allowing a better appreciation of organically initiated development programs of people\u2019s and other civil society organizations (CSOs).<\/p>\n
