brochure

not it is sustainable

 Conduct courtesy calls to DOTC, DPWH, MMDA to make them
aware that the network exists
o Through Ms. Tina, we can come off as observers
o Visit our main principles, introduce ourselves.
 We can offer ourselves as a resource network. If they’re coming up
with projects then we’re here to help generate data and come up
with ideas
 Replicate “walks” in different cities as “tours”

Update on Activities
I. Bantayan Island (DG and KC gave updates regarding the Philippine
Walkable Communities)

 Need to work on the criteria
 People’s movement via change.org but the network wants to be silent
because of its participation with the government
 Social media campaign
 Proof of concept: Councilor Gonzales of Iloilo is being requested to find a
barangay where they could showcase the road sharing concept.
