To elevate the narratives of the vulnerable, the CHR-GEWHR – a center primarily responsible for mainstreaming gender and women’s human rights – crafted a gender specific questionnaire in doing in-depth interviews. The questionnaire was framed in such a way that it captures the interviewee’s background, their experience as a woman and gender non-binary people being displaced, their specific and immediate needs, and their message for the government (see: Appendix B). Guided by the CHR IDP Monitoring Tool, the result of the interviews highlights the specific issues and narratives of internally displaced women and LGBTIs. Issues such as gender-based violence; multiple burdens set by the society, culture, and the system (i.e. productive and reproductive labor); and their incessant demand for dignity as a Maranao, and as a woman; and stories of perseverance, strength, collective healing, and bayanihan were documented by the team (see: Appendix D). ▪ Semi-structure interviews: is a type of qualitative research that asks an openended question, enabling the interviewee, respondents, informant, and/or participants to respond beyond a specific situation. This were used by the General IDP and Gender cluster teams. ▪ Social Dialogue137: CHR-X has been at the forefront in the monitoring of the situation of IDPs from Marawi. They have worked in close coordination and consultation with the Office of the Civil Defense (OCD) and other humanitarian actors in the area. The role of CHR-X in this undertaking is of utmost importance, from the determination of areas to be monitored, and the viability of the proposed schedule and modes of cooperation; CHRCARAGA, was included to augment CHR-X staff in the conduct of monitoring of IDPs and specific for the purpose of the proposed Joint Monitoring. During the mission, the government cluster team were headed by the CHR-X. There were multiple consultations with the evacuation center’s Camp Managers, NEOC, and NIMT. ● Focus Group Discussion was primarily used by the children cluster team headed by the CHR-CRC representative. It was organized in Landa Pamana evacuation center, because of the number of children and youths who were willing to be interviewed. The interview questionnaires prepared by the CHR-GEWHRC and the CHR Monitoring IDP tool were used as a guide for the interviews. Children were also encouraged to tell their stories by letting them talk about things which matters most to them (i.e. family, home, food, education and play). ● Art Sessions was primarily used by the children cluster. The aim was to engage the internally displaced children and draw out narratives and descriptions of their problems and difficulties during the conflict. Guided by the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child, the cluster team analyzed the response of the children from the art sessions and the focus group discussion to develop policy and program recommendations necessary for the rights of the internally displaced children. The three (3) art sessions were conducted differently: the children – ranged from 3 to 6 ages – from the National School of Fisheries and Madrasah Campong evacuation areas, were given papers and coloring materials to do individual drawing exercises with no particular theme or topic given and was asked to draw or write their messages for the President of the Philippines. While the children from Saguiaran evacuation center did a “tell-me-about-your-community” activity, where children were asked to described or shared their best memories in their communities through the use of pictures and emoticons (see: Appendix E 137 See: International Labour Organization (ILO) 2017.
