On August 13–14, 2025, the Metro Manila Association of Cooperative Development Officers held its first-ever Regional Tripartite Conference for Cooperative Development with the theme “Creating and Sustaining Resilient Cooperatives.”
The event brought together over 300 participants from various cooperatives across Metro Manila, including 18 delegates from Muntinlupa City.
The Muntinlupa Cooperative Development Office actively participated as part of the Technical Staff. It was also a distinct honor for Atty. Nemei Santiago, head of the office, to introduce one of the conference’s distinguished guests, DILG Assistant Secretary Elizabeth Lopez De Leon.
Attendees gained valuable insights from experts and speakers who discussed cooperative-related laws and pressing issues affecting the sector. The sessions offered fresh perspectives and reinforced our commitment to advancing the cooperative movement in our city.
