Implementation of its programs, peace-building activities, and legislation were put on hold as attention was refocused on addressing pandemic-related concerns. This resulted in the reallocation of budgets for peace initiatives to COVID-19 response. Although there was relative peace and security within the communities, delays in implementing various peace programs negatively affected the progress in securing peace in the regions.</blockquote>]]></description>

Policies must be enacted to ensure that people from Mindanao have, not only the right access to&nbsp;employment opportunities, but also the right to safety. Overall, the state must be at the forefront in promoting inclusivity and equality through long-term policies that takes into account the well-being of the citizens.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Challenge: The issue is specific and very timely. It is convenient and nice how the main issue in question was specified, which would pertain to the struggle for peace and development in the area, and there was also additional context added to further support on why it is important to address such an issue. The utilization of relevant infographics which indicate the impact of the issue in question, such as the socioeconomic impacts, displacement, and socioeconomic indicators, were appropriate to the question being asked which is commendable. It was nice how additional background information was added such as the Spanish Colonial period which triggered distinct division between the Christianized and Muslim Filipino that is still very evident to these modern times.</div><div><br></div><div>Solutions: The questions were also answered thoroughly and it was also appropriate to add short clips to help the viewer have a better understanding of the issue in question. Accordingly, the second question for this segment was also answered clearly and concisely while also citing the appropriate sources. The usage of sections to divide the questions to be answered were also used appropriately. However, on the technical side I noticed that the citations were only indicated with the link compared to the Challenges section. It would be better to indicate them with their author/organization and year to make it more cohesive.</div><div><br></div><div>Impact Gaps: The questions were answered properly and concisely. However, Impact Gaps 3 seems to be not addressed fully. Can you specify what is being overlooked?</div><div><br></div><div>Learning Action Logs: The researchers were able to adequately demonstrate how they came to have a thorough comprehension of the topic at hand. It was commendable how they went out to many parties campaigning for peace in Mindanao. It was also good to see how they were able to reflect on what they could do better and how they could move forward to address the voids.</div>]]></description>

Even then, within those groups of people, they're very diverse rin, i.e. the moros are comprised of different ethnic groups like the maranaw, tausug, etc etc which have differing cultures and differing problems. For instance, iba ang problems sa sulu archipelago vs mainland mindanao territories ng BARMM. So, I'd suggest narrowing down your scope into a specific geographic location,</div>]]></description>
