Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP) is a government-owned and controlled corporation established on June 23, 1973, through Presidential Decree No. 205. It serves as a national productivity organisation and think tank, providing training, research, consultancy, and technical assistance to enhance the capacity and performance of both public and private sectors. The institution support socio-economic development and good governance in the Philippines through its programs and initiatives.

History

Establishment

DAP was founded under Presidential Decree No. 205 by President Ferdinand Marcos to create a coordinated and ongoing program for capacity building in the public and private sectors. Its mission focused on addressing the human resource needs critical for economic and social development.

Recent Developments

In October 2023, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. issued Executive Order No. 45, transferring DAP from the Office of the President to the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA). This administrative shift aimed to improve the alignment and execution of economic and development policies.

In February 2024, Majah-Leah V. Ravago was appointed as DAP's president. Ravago, an economist with prior experience as an Associate Professor at the Ateneo Center for Economic Research and Development, brings expertise in economics and policy research to the institution.

During 2024, DAP expanded its initiatives in capacity building and governance, including hosting the Government Quality Management Program (GQMP) Conference 2024, strengthening partnerships with the Asian Productivity Organization (APO), enhancing monitoring and evaluation practises for government agencies, conducting international workshops on improving public sector service quality. These efforts underscore DAP's role in supporting national development and promoting excellence in public administration.
