DepEd, DILG hold historic meeting to strengthen early childhood care
Manila Bulletin
|October 18, 2025
The Department of Education (DepEd) and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) convened the 46th Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD) Governing Board Meeting on Friday, Oct.17, marking the first organizational meeting under the newly signed ECCD System Act (RA 12199).
DILG Secretary Jonvic Remulla presided over the meeting, with DepEd Secretary Sonny Angara serving as co-chair.
Held in Makati City, the historic session focused on implementing a whole-of-government approach to early childhood care, emphasizing feeding programs and holistic child development—priorities close to President Marcos' heart, according to Angara.
“We are here to support its implementation, particularly the feeding programs and holistic development initiatives,” he said.
Key highlights
The ECCD Council, previously under DepEd, is now attached to the DILG, with both DILG and DepEd serving as co-chairpersons. This new structure aims to strengthen local government mobilization and inter-agency coordination.
