1. In response to the solicitation for anti-trafficking in 
persons project proposals from the Department's Office to 
Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (G/TIP) (ref A), 
Embassy Manila received 22 proposals from both government 
agencies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for 
consideration of funding in FY 2007.  Our Mission's 
Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Working Group carefully reviewed 
all 22 proposals and recommends the following five projects 
to G/TIP for funding in FY 2007, in priority order.  Three 
projects primarily focus on improving the prosecution of TIP 
cases, while the two others address prevention and protection 
efforts.  Embassy will email the complete proposals for these 
five projects to G/TIP directly per reftel guidance. 
Political Officer Barry Fullerton is the Embassy 
point-of-contact for trafficking in persons issues.  He can 
be reached at 63-2-528-6300, extension 2350, or at 
FullertonTB@state.gov.

PROJECT 1: INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE MISSION 
---------------------------------------- 
 
A. ORGANIZATION: International Justice Mission (IJM) 
 
B. PROJECT TITLE: An Initiative to Combat Trafficking in 
Metro Manila and Samar 
 
C. REQUESTED FUNDING: $760,857 
 
D. DURATION: Two years 
 
E. DESCRIPTION: The project aims to continue IJM's 
anti-trafficking initiatives on case development and 
prosecutions of human trafficking cases in Metro Manila; 
build the capacity of local law enforcement; increase 
aftercare capacity of government; and expand IJM's project 
coverage to the province of Samar in the Visayas.  IJM will 
continue to initiate investigation of TIP cases for sexual 
exploitation and case referrals from local NGOs.  It will 
utilize evidentiary materials gathered to assist local 
authorities in initiating arrests and prosecution of 
traffickers and closure of establishments engaged in TIP. 
IJM will also facilitate placement of rescued victims in 
facilities for recovery, rehabilitation and skills training.

PROJECT 2: VISAYAN FORUM FOUNDATION 
----------------------------------- 
 
A. ORGANIZATION: Visayan Forum Foundation (VFF) 
 
B. PROJECT TITLE: Operating Halfway Houses in Strategic Ports 
in the Philippines to Protect Victims and Potential Victims 
of Trafficking, and Organizing Responsive Task Forces Towards 
Strengthening Prosecution of Trafficking Cases 
 
C. REQUESTED FUNDING: $475,196 
 
D. DURATION: Two years 
 
E. DESCRIPTION: VFF requests funding to continue to operate 
its halfway houses in the ports of Manila, Davao, Sorsogon 
and Batangas.  These unique facilities, built by the 
Philippine Ports Authority, provide 24-hour temporary shelter 
and protection services to rescued victims of trafficking. 
Despite VFF's pioneering efforts in Philippine ports and its 
great impact in combating human trafficking, VFF still faces 
the challenge to continue to provide an immediate set of 
services to actual and potential victims who have been 
intercepted during transit.  The proposed project addresses 
the need to strengthen the anti-trafficking task forces 
composed of law enforcers, shipping companies, and other 
stakeholders at the port through capacity-building 
activities, and expand the task forces' ability to monitor 
other exit and entry points of trafficking throughout the 
country.

PROJECT 3: ST. MA. GORETTI DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION, INC.

A. ORGANIZATION: St. Ma. Goretti Development Foundation, Inc. 
 
B. PROJECT TITLE: Inter-Provincial Local Government Units and 
 
MANILA 00001276  002 OF 003 
 
 
Multi-Sector Partnership Against Trafficking 
 
C. REQUESTED FUNDING: $90,313 
 
D. DURATION: Eighteen months 
 
E. DESCRIPTION: The project seeks to combat trafficking of 
women and children in the provinces of Negros Oriental, 
Negros Occidental in the Visayas, and Zamboanga del Norte in 
Mindanao.  These three provinces have been identified as 
sources of child labor trafficked to Manila and other cities. 
 The project will conduct advocacy campaigns in the three 
provinces; establish cooperation among local government 
units, civil society and community groups for joint action 
against TIP; conduct capacity building activities for law 
enforcers and prosecutors; and establish temporary shelters 
for rescued TIP victims.

PROJECT 4: WINROCK INTERNATIONAL 
-------------------------------- 
 
A. ORGANIZATION: Winrock International 
 
B. PROJECT TITLE: Philippines Anti-Trafficking Initiative 
(PATI) 
 
C. REQUESTED FUNDING: $299,492 
 
D. DURATION: Two years 
 
E. DESCRIPTION: The project aims to strengthen existing law 
enforcement mechanisms to combat trafficking in children 
through improved prosecution.  It also seeks to prevent 
children-at-risk from trafficking by providing livelihood and 
educational opportunities in Cebu City and Davao City, where 
child trafficking incidence is high.  To accomplish this, 
PATI will:  develop training modules and train members of the 
government led projects Sagip-Batang Manggagawa (SBM) ("Child 
Labor Rescue") and the Inter-Agency Councils Against 
Trafficking in Persons (IACAT) to improve identification, 
evidence collection and case build-up for trafficking in 
persons; and, develop and include in the SBM Handbook and 
inspection system information on trafficking, and policies 
and procedures to investigate and prosecute trafficking, thus 
ensuring that SBM members integrate combating child 
trafficking activities into their enforcement of the child 
labor law.  Simultaneously, PATI will assist communities to 
raise awareness of trafficking, assist in the identification 
of those at-risk of being trafficked; report suspected 
traffickers to law enforcers and cooperate in the effective 
implementation of the Philippines' 2003 anti-trafficking law. 
 At-risk children aged 14-17 years old will participate in 
programs to build employment and enterprise skills, thus 
reducing the vulnerability of being trafficked.  Those of 
working age will be assisted in obtaining safe employment.

PROJECT 5: CATHOLIC RELIEF SERVICES 
----------------------------------- 
 
A. ORGANIZATION: Catholic Relief Services 
 
B. PROJECT TITLE: Improving Legal Assistance and Trafficking 
Awareness in the Philippines 
 
C. REQUESTED FUNDING: $260,219 
 
D. DURATION: Two years 
 
E. DESCRIPTION: The project aims to combat trafficking 
through increased capacity of Catholic networks in this 
predominantly Catholic society to educate vulnerable women 
and children regarding the prevention of trafficking, 
including safe migration and safe work.  It also aims to 
develop legal resources to increase and improve the quality 
of cases filed for prosecution in the Philippines.  The 
project will provide training to 100 lawyers, 100 paralegals, 
240 Catholic Church pastoral workers as well as Department of 
Justice prosecutors.  The project will conduct awareness 
campaigns and other community activities through Catholic 
Church structures to reach out to thousands of vulnerable 
individuals.  The project also aims to establish coordination 
between Catholic Church networks and IACAT. CRS' implementing 
partners include the Episcopal Commission for the Pastoral 
Care of Migrants and Itinerant People, the National 
Secretariat for Social Action, and Asia Against Child
