dc.description.abstract | The study identifies mechanisms wherein Filipino students are able to engage in
promoting a drug
free community and the efforts of the Philippine National Police to provide
avenue for citizen engagement. Employing the Spectrum of Public Participation intro
duced by
the International Association for Public Participation, the study investigates specific actions that
the citizens would willingly partake in support of Duterte’s Drug War. From a sample of 194
students, the research was able to gather responses th
rough close ended self
reported questionnaire survey and from reports of the Philippine National Police. The study revealed that
in all levels of the Public Participation Spectrum, the students are willing to be engaged with the
Anti Drug efforts. Also, efforts from the end of the Police were revealed to have not only be
secluded in the inform level but has also reached the level of ‘empower’. Hence, the government
of the Philippines must capitalize on these avenues to promote a sustainable and community
based Anti Drug Campaign. | en_US |
