For 45 years, the Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS) has conducted relevant, responsive, and development-oriented research to assist policymakers and planners in shaping and refining policies and programs. In 2022, the Institute completed 66 research projects and disseminated these studies’ findings through 88 publications, 31 public webinars, knowledge databases, and online and social media tools. To adapt to the new normal, PIDS formally adopted a flexible work arrangement, enabling its staff to accomplish their tasks remotely while maintaining productivity and work-life balance. The Institute also extended its support to legislators in crafting and deliberating proposed bills. Furthermore, PIDS strengthened its engagement with stakeholders and fostered strategic partnerships with different organizations.
