Women and children in newly emerging democracies such as the Philippines are considered the most vulnerable sector in terms of access to basic services such as education, health, and reintegration. To explore the various forms of these vulnerabilities, the speakers in the sessions will examine the broad patterns, contexts, and nuances of these vulnerabilities from the perspectives of former street children, residents of informal settlements, teenage brides, and participants in state-run feeding programs. These cases represent the many forms of marginalization as experienced by women and children in the Philippines.

This roundtable discussion aims to highlight the role of social networks and social capital as supplementary mechanisms in creating a long-term, sustainable social protection net for these vulnerable groups. While there appears to be no shortage of such practices among mothers and family members in providing support, the papers in this panel argue that the state, as well as various national and international development agencies, can be more deliberate in incorporating these informal practices as an integral component of the government's existing social protection mechanisms. Such a transition is expected to create more sustainable and grounded, culturally sensitive solutions that will have better community buy-in and, at the same time, not further exacerbate the heavy burden imposed by the extended Filipino family system on its less fortunate family members.
