The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) and its partner agencies will begin undertaking soon a nationwide voters’ education campaign.
CHR Chairperson Leila de Lima said this undertaking aims to increase among voters, particularly those from vulnerable sectors.
It also adds to the awareness and understanding about their right to suffrage so the country’s electoral process can be improved.
The vulnerable sectors mentioned include: the elderly, people with disabilities, detainees, internally displaced persons (IDPs), indigenous peoples and first-time voters. (PIA/Bohol)
