 What is Moral Recovery Program
(MRP)?
• Proclamation No. 62 dated 30 September 1992 declared a Moral Recovery
Program as President Fidel V. Ramos signed this in response to the need to
strengthen the moral resources of the Filipino people rooted in Filipino
values and ideals that are pro-God, pro-People, pro-Country and pro-
Nature.
 Why was the Moral Recovery Program
(MRP) approved?
• Article XIV, Section 3(2) of the Constitution provides that “all educational
institution shall … inculcate patriotism and nationalism, foster love of
humanity, respect for human rights, appreciation of the role of national
heroes in the historical development of the country, teach the rights and
duties of citizenship, strengthen ethical and spiritual values, develop
moral characters and personal discipline, encourage critical and creative
thinking, broaden scientific and technological knowledge and promote
vocational efficiency.”
What are the Benefits of
MRP?
 The Benefits of the MRP
• According to the DILG, if the program is successful in creating
individuals with a good moral sense, this could be highly beneficial
to the society. People are less likely to commit crimes, more likely to
help those in need and increasingly inclined to do good in their
community. In a sense, the program prevents community problems,
rather than dealing with them as they occur. The well known phrase
“prevention is the best cure” springs to mind here, and is indeed one
idea behind the moral recovery program.
The reason behind the MRP’s creation:
