| Quite often, FBOs and NGOs have stronger presence in remote, disadvantaged and marginalized barangays and therefore are in a more strategic position to conduct continuing community-based education on children's rights. |
| Each of the city's 897 barangays also have their own festivities guided by their own patron saint. |
| This is explained by the difficulty of accessing the most isolated barangays. |
| Thus far, only about 10 percent of 41,995 barangays have been reached. |
