Building upon the accomplishments of the SURGE Project in the first two years of implementation, the First Quarter of Year 3 generated positive results that bolstered the role of secondary cities as engines of inclusive, environmentally sustainable and resilient growth. These results were facilitated by stronger partnerships with the national government agencies, local institutions, the academe, civil society groups, other USAID-funded projects, and local stakeholders. The SURGE Project supports eight CDI partner cities of Batangas, Legazpi and Puerto Princesa in Luzon, Iloilo and Tagbilaran in the Visayas, and Cagayan de Oro, General Santos and Zamboanga in Mindanao. Although Antipolo City is not a CDI partner city, the project has also been collaborating with the city on land administration and management issues. Achievements highlighted in this report relate to activities under the three project areas or components, support to the partner cities, along with the accomplishments on crosscutting areas (institutional mechanism, gender and communication), project management and project work correlated with the Monitoring and Evaluation Plan. While summaries of the SURGE Project activities are provided in the main body and accompanying annexes to this report, below are some of the key project accomplishments during the quarter. SUMMARY OF KEY SUCCESSES Generated Contributions and Leveraged Funds from CDI cities The SURGE Project continued to mobilize support from local stakeholders for the various activities implemented during the quarter. The contributions to activities organized by the SURGE Project were given in the form of financial resources for event venues, transportation, supplies, equipment, and manpower support while the leveraged funds were allocated by the cities to support activities provided by the project.

The formal partnership of USAID and General Santos City will facilitate the development and implementation of city action plans to boost economic growth, improve health and education, and strengthen environmental resilience.

Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Legazpi and the Southern Luzon Technological College Foundation, Inc.
