Today, as stories about IDP’s trauma, helplessness, grief and worries encapsulates various news
agencies in the country, this section hoped to shed some light on the positive actions and social
transformations that Maranaos have done in times of disaster.
Methodologies
The team – a mixed of 17 Maranaos, Mindanaons, Muslims, non-Muslims, women, LGBT, men,
and IDPs representatives from CHR Regions X and XII, CHR-CCHP, CHR-CR, CHR-GeWHR centers
– employed various quantitative and qualitative methods during the mission on 1 – 5 July 2017.
The team was divided in five (5) clusters, pursuing specific sectors and institutions to interview

In monitoring and assessing the situation of the IDPs, the clustered team used distinct methods
to capture their stories and narratives. While doing so, the team gathered inquiries on the
ground regarding the humanitarian and protection response of the local and national
government. The team took notes and used voice recorders during those interviews. The
information gathered in the six (6) evacuation centers (see: Table 3) was then triangulated by
the 17 representatives during the daily de-briefings while on the mission – which was also
documented using recorders and note taking. After the mission, the recorded data was then
transcribed and analyzed by various CHR consultants.
