In plenary, a representative from each of the regional offices presented the results of the
workshop discussion. The following summarizes the workshop results:
Half of the regions committed three LGUs, with a combination of cities and municipalities
while the rest identified two LGUs, while some regions tentatively identified the areas and
will be confirmed soon.
Most regions will cover gender-based violence (GBV) cases as defined by the anti-VAWC
Law, while one region intends to focus on GBV defined by the Rape Law. It was mentioned
that in mapping rape cases, it is possible that VAW may also be identified. Some regions
noted some emerging issues related to GBV.
The criteria used in the selection by the regions include the following.
High incidence of GBV/VAW/rape/trafficking
Disaster area
Center / Periphery
Good coordination with LGU
Highly urbanized city/provincial capital city /
Active Provincial GAD
Rural/ICCs/IPs
With/ without existing referral
Proximity to CHR Regional Office
mechanisms
Multicultural areas
Accessibility of data
Tourist areas and proximity to ports and
Linkages with CSOs/ NGOs

Budget
FGD and KII are the most usual methodology identified while one region indicated CBD.
Relevant participants and informants were identified from the proposal. Some regions
added Liga ng Barangay/ Barangay VAW Desk, and community women to be considered as
participants.
Forms of follow-through include monitoring, referral, legal assistance, case dialogue,
lectures advocacies, advisories and other policy issuances and policy recommendations, and
the conduct of CBD.
Homogeneity of FGD participants should be ensured.
Guidelines for KII and FGD and consent forms will be sent to regions while tools and
instruments will be modified for certain groups of stakeholders.
