The pandemic has made the political transition in the two-year-old autonomous region even more fragile as skirmishes between government forces and extremist groups, inter-clan disputes and conflicts over land, sent thousands of residents to evacuation centers where observing minimum health protocols such as physical distancing, washing of hands with soap and wearing of face masks, is a major challenge.

Listen to the podcast edition of this episode from our Reporting Mindanao series, in partnership with Internews, on ‘COVID, Conflicts and the Peace Process’ which will focus on what is happening in South Upi, Maguindanao.

Featuring excerpts from the Feb. 6 web forum with guests Dr. Jowel Canuday, Froilyn Mendoza, Edward Abelardo, and Naguib Sinarimbo. The full web forum video can be viewed here.
