Posted to the Western Mindanao Command (WESTMINCOM) Facebook Page (Feb 20, 2022): Peace Conversation with former extremists in the Province of Basilan
With the new AS2G CARE (Advancing and Sustaining Good Governance and Community Actions towards Resilience and Empowerment), Peace Conversation with the Former Extremists was held at Sumisip, Basilan Province on February 16, 2022.
AS2G CARE is a continuation of a program of the now-defunct ARMM called Program Against Violent Extremism (PAVE). It is a collaboration between BMFI and the Provincial Government of Basilan; Joint Task Force Basilan-Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP); Nagdilaab Foundation Inc.; Office of Deputy Speaker Hataman; and the Office of the Presidential Assistant on the Peace Process (OPAPP), with the support of the Government of Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).
This activity let these Former Violent Extremists share their stories of transformation and proved that violent extremism is not the solution to their problems.
Said Peace Conversation was also witnessed by BGEN DOMINGO B GOBWAY, JTF Basilan Commander, Steven J Robinson AO, an Australian Ambassador to the Philippines, and Secretary Carlito G Galvez Jr of the PAPRU.
