government offices that there
be at least a person who can

It is evident in the data that most of the issues and concerns are about the
accessibility of social protection programs. It is emphasized by the number of issues
surrounding program implementation, particularly in the LGU level. The issues on
acceptability and adaptability highlight the need to pay special attention to groups
that suffer from structural discrimination. Their needs should be given distinction in
the design, implementation, and monitoring of programs, in order to meet
obligations assumed in human rights instruments.
