Jennilyne Role, PIA-1 regional director, said the forum is one of the advocacy activities of the Agency as the lead of the Strategic Communications Cluster of the Regional Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (RTF-ELCAC).

“The webinar will make the participants more aware of illegal recruitment especially among minors into the armed movement that is happening in the country,” she said.
