Validated in 1996 as the "People's Development Program in Mindanao"
(PDPM), this groundbreaking document marks the first time for the Mindanao NGO community to articulate a common development vision for the region.
The PDPM currently serves as the basis for MINCODE's various endeavors. To ensure its implementation , the network has created five commissions focused on the following concerns: (1) tri-people's concerns, culture and Mindanao history; (2) land use and management ; (3) agriculture and
agri-industrialization; (4)politics and local governance; and (5) finance and sustainability.

PHILSSA is a network of NGOs addressing urban and related concerns. Its conception and birth are closely tied to the attempts of a concerned group of like-minded NGOs to operationalize ethical development practice in the Philippines. Its Code of Ethics, which was later adopted as the Social Development Code of Ethics of CODE-NGO, became the basis of unity of the members.
It all endeavors, PHILSSA has capitalized on the strength of its members and partner organization in development work. It thus upholds the principles of subsidiarity and complementation. It can be said that these principles are among PHILSSA's unique contribution to the development community.
PHILSSA has made a name for itself as a coalition-builder, working around the precepts of subsidiarity, complementation and harmonization. It played a key role in the formation of CODE-NGO, which has been known in the development community as a network of networks.
