The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) has expressed alarm over the continued closure of lumad schools in the Davao region.

CHR Commissioner Gwendolyn Pimentel-Gana said it was part of the government’s responsibility to make sure that the children, who are also indigenous people , are able to properly exercise their right to education.

The CHR also has reiterated its call that any allegations that Lumad schools are being used as tools for recruitment for rebel groups need to go through the proper channels and due process. The CHR official added that priority should be given to the development of the students and the communities affected by these closures.
