children,  harassment,  harassment  in  public  places,  e-VAW,  child  pornography,  gender-based  cases  committed  through  social  media.  As  a  result, there is an increase in the received complaints and reports of the WCPC and that WCPD. WCPD is found in the police station.   For  WCPC,  Our  function  is  to monitor, supervise, and provide policy making, and collate all data. That is why all the agencies come to WCPC  for  the  reporting  of  statistics.  This  is  my  share  of  experiences:  when  it  comes  to  statistical  data,  one observation that we want to resolve is  mostly  the  issue  on  duplication.  When  you  report to the barangay, they will tell the statement. But after a few months, they will also tell the  same  statement  to  the  police. The records/cases are being duplicated, sometimes even tripled. For the PNP, a case is considered successful  if  the  case is filed in court, the suspect has been arrested and convicted and placed behind bars. The challenge is to really reconcile the data  that  we  are  collecting.  We  can  say  that  we  are  receiving  more  complaints  and  raising  more  awareness  because  of  our  strong  campaign  of  Anti-VAWC. For the PNP, we consider a case successful if the case is filed in court, suspect arrested and convicted and placed behind bars.   Challenges:   1. Reconciling  data  from  barangay  and  from  the  police.  ​We  also  want  to  be  updated  to  the  cases  we  turned  over  to  the  social  workers. We have to have this holistic approach, from rescue to turn over to DSWD to case filing.     2. For  the  Persons  with  Disabilities  and  LGBTQI+​.  Our  concern  here  is  that  if  it  is  not  gender-based  case,  the  cases  go  to  general  investigation.  There  should  be  a  special  staff/desk  for  the  LGBTQI  +  and  Persons  with  Disabilities.  There should be an officer for the  LGBTQI+ at the police station and for the PWD.     At  present,  there  is only one policewoman trained for sign language. Of course we have also encountered deaf clients who want to file cases  and  we  cannot  give  the  right  assistance  due  to  the  lack  of  human  resources.  We  recommend  that  we  should  have  someone  who  knows the sign language that we can contact and call to our office right away.    3. At the station, there is a lot of confusion which desk is mandated to address which issues, especially on the special case.    4. We request that 24/7 assistance from DSWD, or the MSWDO (especially during weekends).   MAKING DATA WORK FOR WOMEN: VALIDATION OF FRAMEWORK AND RESEARCH FINDINGS ON GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE  A DOCUMENTATION REPORT  32
