The Ministry of Public Order and Safety (MPOS) in collaboration with the Tiyakap Kalilintad Inc. (TKI) continues to promote public safety in the Bangsamoro Region by conducting its “Orientation and Training on Conflict Reporting System” to the Early Warning and Early Response (EWER) volunteers from Maguindanao del Norte. This training sought to thoroughly explain the context of the Conflict Reporting System, underline the critical roles of EWER volunteers in ensuring public safety, and harmonize its EWER mechanism in preparation for the upcoming Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections (BSKE).

The success of this orientation training envisions preventing any form of election-related conflict in the province through monitoring, analyzing, and reporting early warning signs as well as election-related incidents in the community.
