Possible Solutions to Barriers

Greetings, UP Geodetic Engineering Club!

On behalf of Boto Pilipino, we are really looking forward to working together in addressing the
aforementioned barriers to registration your members are currently facing. We would like to
reiterate that some members faced multiple barriers, thus, the barrier graph shown in Figure 4
above is not mutually exclusive.

Together with WeTheFuturePH, +iMPACT Leadership, and Tatak Botante, we have proposed the
following possible solutions that we can implement in order to safely get more of your members
registered for the 2022 elections. We have included solutions to all the barriers we have identified
in the UP Diliman community, to give you an insight as to what we need to overcome as a
community in order to increase the voter registration turnout. Please note that these solutions are
flexible, and we are more than open to discussing how we can better implement them to fit your
organization’s needs. Moreover, due to the current MECQ restriction in the NCR+ bubble until May
14, our target implementation of the carpool/shuttle system will tentatively be in June to ensure the
health and safety of everyone involved.

We are also still consulting with our partner initiatives on what additional solutions we can
implement, especially in consideration of the pandemic. Should you have any questions or
concerns regarding this report and the possible solutions, please feel free to email us at
botopilipino@gmail.com, or sign-up for our Town Hall meeting next week (May 9-15) here:
http://bit.ly/BPTownHall should you want to further discuss and clarify our next steps together.

Thank you, and let’s continue to strengthen the youth’s vote!

Lack of Transportation, Inaccessibility to
Offices, Fear of COVID
Possible Solutions
Shuttle system for students within NCR in
coordination with WeTheFuturePH
Boto Pilipino will be sending a sensing form to
the emails of your members with these barriers
who are within NCR by mid-May to gauge if
they are open in availing the shuttle services
and what preparations we need to take in order
to implement this in June. Rest assured that the
health and safety of everyone involved is our top
priority, and we will be detailing the safety
protocols we will be implementing in the coming
weeks.
Carpool system from members within the
organization
We have suggested this option just in case your
members are more comfortable with
transportation from people they already know.
Boto Pilipino will be assisting you in organizing
the carpool plans for your members, and
providing you with direct contact with the
COMELEC office in the city if needed.
Action Steps for Geodetic Engineering Club
1. We will update you when we have
sent the shuttle services sensing
form to your members with this
barrier who are within NCR by
Mid-May.
2. May we ask for your assistance in
reminding them to answer the form,
and to reach out to them if they
have any additional questions.
3. We might also schedule a meeting
with your organization in order to
better implement this, as well as to
address concerns.
