DAVAO CITY | Members of the interim Bangsamoro Parliament on Monday, June 1, commenced the crafting of a 10-year strategic framework aimed at guiding the institution beyond the transition period and supporting the first elected Bangsamoro Parliament.

The three-day Parliament Strategic Planning Framework Workshop, conducted in partnership with the Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP), brings together Bangsamoro lawmakers to identify long-term priorities for the Parliament’s legislative, oversight, and representation functions.

Under the Bangsamoro Organic Law, the Bangsamoro Transition Authority (BTA) serves as the interim government of BARMM during the transition period and exercises the powers and functions of the Parliament until the election of regular members.

As BARMM prepares for its first parliamentary elections in September 2026, lawmakers emphasized that the strategic planning initiative seeks to strengthen governance systems and ensure that the incoming Parliament inherits clear institutional direction, established frameworks, and sound policy foundations.

Speaker Mohammad Yacob underscored the importance of continuously evolving the institution in a manner that reflects the aspirations of the Bangsamoro people while promoting participatory governance, accountability, and responsive public service.

In a message delivered by Chief of Staff Jamel Macacua, Chief Minister Abdulraof Macacua reaffirmed the regional government’s commitment to translating shared priorities into concrete policies and programs that deliver meaningful and tangible outcomes to communities across BARMM.

During the workshop, the Westminster Foundation for Democracy also turned over a parliamentary roadmap outlining measures to strengthen institutional stability and ensure continuity as the Bangsamoro Parliament advances toward its next phase of development.

The workshop will run until June 3, reinforcing the Bangsamoro Parliament’s commitment to long-term institutional development and effective governance.

𝐃𝐀𝐕𝐀𝐎 𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐑𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐬 of the Bangsamoro Parliament has approved the conduct of regionwide Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) on the proposed institutionalization of Da’wah activities across the Bangsamoro region, with consultations set to commence in the second week of June.

The schedule was finalized during a committee meeting held following the strategic planning session of Bangsamoro lawmakers.

At the center of the discussions is Parliament Bill No. 463, principally authored by 𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙧 𝙈𝙤𝙝𝙖𝙢𝙢𝙖𝙙 𝙔𝙖𝙘𝙤𝙗 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙈𝙋 𝙈𝙪𝙝𝙖𝙢𝙢𝙖𝙙 𝙉𝙖𝙙𝙯𝙞𝙧 𝙀𝙗𝙞𝙡, which seeks to institutionalize Da’wah through the establishment of a 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗼 𝗗𝗮’𝘄𝗮𝗵 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗼 𝗗𝗮’𝘄𝗮𝗵 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗹 to oversee and coordinate Da’wah-related programs and initiatives in the region.

The proposed measure aligns with the priority legislative agenda supported by 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐛𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐫𝐚𝐨𝐟 𝐌𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐜𝐮𝐚, emphasizing programs that strengthen moral governance, cultural identity, and institutional development within BARMM.

Under the bill, Da’wah is defined as activities promoting ethical communication, cultural understanding, and values-based education anchored on Bangsamoro identity and traditions.

In the same meeting, the committee also agreed to incorporate into its deliberations the substance of Proposed Resolution No. 716, which seeks the creation of a Bangsamoro Office for Religious and Cultural Affairs (BORCA) under the Office of the Chief Minister to coordinate Da’wah programs, interfaith engagement, and cultural integration initiatives.

Bangsamoro leaders underscored the importance of inclusive consultations, emphasizing that the upcoming FGDs will engage religious leaders, Muslim communities, and non-Muslim sectors to ensure broad stakeholder participation.

The initiative comes amid continuing efforts to strengthen Shari’ah institutions and improve access to justice for Muslim Filipinos through institutional reforms and expanded legal and educational opportunities.
