LESSON 1
ACTIVITY – 1 Pre-assessment test ( Engage and explain)
What is your personal view of Police concerns in Law Enforcement and Human Rights.
-Article 2 of the 1979 Code of Conduct for Law Enforcement Officials of the United Nations High
Commissioner for Human Rights states that in the course of their duties, law enforcement officials "must
respect and preserve human dignity and maintain and uphold the human rights of all persons. Human
rights are norms that aspire to protect all people everywhere from severe political, legal, and social
abuses. Everybody is entitled to these rights simply because they are fellow humansThey are universal,
inalienable, and they cannot be taken away.

Activity - 2 (Explore and Evaluate)

Based on your readings, construct a matrix presentation of police expectations and people’s
expectations in relation to the international Human Rights standards for Law Enforcement.
- Most everyone, if not all of us, wants to be happy. Peace is a common denominator frequently sought.
It is human nature to seek security, another word for happiness. Human Rights, as we know, are basic
rights and freedoms that inherently belong to every person. In order to have a stable civilization, to
govern and be governed, there must be a sense of legitimacy and trust by those who are governed.
Actual legitimacy by policing forces must not only be perceived to be but actually be legitimate and
administered according to trust and rule of law, among other considerations.Social order is not possible
without a sense of real legitimacy, compliance, and cooperation. In order to strive for the greater good,
society has allowed itself to be policed by consent. In many places around the world this condition is
being more openly questioned and challenged.Factors influencing human rights, civil rights, public trust,
and the role of policing must be better understood and properly carried out by law enforcement
agencies and the respective or expected public partnership involved. Many agencies are now trying to
describe anew their roles as guardians as opposed to being known simply as police. A guardian is an ally,
someone who watches, protects, and takes appropriate action. Discretion and trust are fundamental
and essential to their role.Today's civilizations are at a crossroads, and the legitimacy of police forces
and the authority we, the people, provide them to carry out their duties as police officers is one of those
issues. When assessing how their experience, their family, their professional and societal lives are
anchored, and what significance and stability such experiences bring now, people want to be able to
judge whether their life is good or bad. Our experiences are guided and developed by a sense of
collective responsibility.

According to David D Perlmutter(Sage Publications, 2000)

Policing the media: Street cops and public perceptions of law enforcement
Policing the Media is an investigation into one of the paradoxes of the mass-mediated age. Issues,
events, and people that we" see" most on our television screens are often those that we understand the
least. It has to do with police officers, who are among the persons who are shown on television the
most. Based on the author's experiences riding on patrol with officers and joining the department as a
reserve policeman, Policing the Media is a report on the ethnography of a police department. They
illustrate the lives and beliefs of street patrol policemen by drawing on interviews, firsthand experience,
and the author's black-and-white images of cops and their "customers." Since much of television
programming is imaginative and absurd, he discovers that police officers have conflicting attitudes
toward their on-screen allies. Even those shows that advertise grim realism bear little resemblance to
genuine police operations. Additionally, the cops believe that the general public's perceptions of law
enforcement and crime are directly (and significantly) impacted by malign forces.

ACTIVITY – 1 (Explore and evaluate)

Read reference books and open links; in no less than 300 words, write an essay on the following topic
(state whether you are agree or disagree)
“Human Rights violations are often the result of wrong perception about human rights, unprofessional
behavior and competency gaps”
- I agree that we tend to all have totally different concepts on several topics as a result of it's simply a
part of being human. we tend to all create mistakes and have undesirable impulses and concepts since
we tend to square measure human. owing to this, the law goes to nice lengths to clarify itself so,
although we tend to square measure illiterate individuals, we tend to could base our understanding on
the particular codification. the actual fact that there square measure some ways to know the law
doesn't exculpate anyone. There square measure many ways in which to elucidate a selected piece of
legislation. According to Pine Tree State, abusive behavior also can cause violations of human rights. As
enforcement officers, we tend to should behave in accordance with our oaths of workplace.

LESSON 2
ACTIVITY -1 (Explore and evaluate)
Read reference book and open links. Based on your readings on the subject matter, Identify at least 5
GAPS between law enforcement and human rights violations/abuses committed by the police and or the
military and make your own reflections on each GAPS you identified.
- Assassinations, political executions, absolute arrests, detentions for gratis, and torture oft follow.
Reconciliation and peace building square measure way more difficult in things wherever severe human
rights violations have occurred. Keeping people's rights protected means that guaranteeing they receive
some level of good, compassionate.The idea that everybody contains a sure set of basic rights no matter
their state of affairs has received virtually universal support. the foremost basic of them is that the right
to life and physical safety, in conjunction with different civil liberties and political rights. altogether of
our endeavors, the will for fairness, tolerance, respect for others, and human dignity should be
expressed. after we quote rights, we are able to convey the notion that each person falls below the orbit
of morality and justice.
LESSON 3
ACTIVITY 1 (Explore and evaluate)
Read reference books and open links and research on the “Police Station checklist on Human rights-
based policing and on Human rights desk basic operational Procedures”.
For your activity output:
Prepare a summary AND comprehensive analysis of the checklist and operational procedures base on
the data gathered.
- Human rights are like armor; they protect you; they are like regulations; they are like judges; they
teach you how to behave; and you may appeal to them. Like emotions, they are abstract and belong to
everyone. They also exist regardless of what takes place. They are comparable to nature in that they can
be harmed, and to the spirit in that neither can be annihilated. They treat everyone equally, regardless
of wealth, age, race, or height tall and short, white and black. They respect us and expect us to respect
others in return. We may occasionally dispute on how to define concepts like goodness, truth, and
justice, but we can all agree that they exist.
ACTIVITY 2
Based on your readings on Lessons 1, 2 and 3, make a substantive reflection on the PNP Human rights
advocacy statement and make an essay of no less than 400 words on how such advocacy statement
could help bridge the GAP between human rights violations and abuses by the PNP and their mandate to
law enforcement. ( TIP: in order to answer this question, you must identify first what is the PNP’s
HUMAN RIGHTS ADVOCACY STATEMENT)
- According to the PNP human rights advocacy statement made public by PNP chief Albayalde, the
National Police would carry out their policing in accordance with the human rights regulation, and their
motto, "To serve and protect," will also be in compliance with the rule. Additionally, their role as state
defenders will encompass the protection of human rights. that they will diligently uphold and enforce
the law, taking into account all pertinent factors and the final result of their involvement. This reveals
the PNP commander's confidence in the police force's capacity to uphold the law, work to prevent
crime, and equitably protect citizens while respecting and taking into account their human rights.

ACTIVITY 3
***Watch the video of Pres. Duterte last SONA (State of the Nation Address) last July 27, 2020.***
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKBBJJspG4c follow this link.. (Explore and evaluate)
Open link provided and based on what you have seen and heard from president Duterte cite specific
topics discussed by him that relates to human rights and state what is being done by his government in
order to address the issues and concerns, then present your own thoughts on the matter.
- Our military forces lacked the equipment necessary to tackle both internal and external threats, and
the police force was overworked due to crime and the drug trade problem. To strengthen the institution
and boost the morale of the members of the Philippine National Police, Military Forces of the
Philippines, and other armed services was therefore a major priority for me. By raising their salary,
providing them with equipment to lessen their workload, and providing them with prizes and incentives
to encourage them to carry out their tasks to the best of their ability, our former president Rodrigo R.
Duterte raised the morale of the PNP and AFP soldiers.With the formation of the National Task Force to
End Communist Armed Conflict, or NTF-ELCAC, we have made significant progress in addressing the root
causes of this war by empowering our kababayans who have been used as a tool by the communists for
so long. We have worked toward the sustained restoration and development of communities where the
communists once operated in our ongoing effort to create secure and conflict-resistant barangays. We
made investments in farm-to-market initiatives. Now that they are a part of the legal system, they are
joyfully reintegrating into society via the Enhanced Community Local Integration Program, or E-CLIP. I
personally observed and participated in the PNP's medical missions, vaccination campaigns, gift-giving
activities, symposiums regarding VAWC, anti-illegal drug usage, and anti-terrorism. I have seen firsthand
the efforts that our police officers have made to complete these jobs. Project Kasimbayanan, a new
effort recently unveiled by the Chief PNP's office, has greatly expanded our role as an advocacy group.
However, I'll go back in time since sambayanan participants in this program are crucial to preserving
social order. When I first said I'd fight drugs in six months, I figured it would be similar in Davao.I
commanded, "Lumabas kayo ng Davao. You may either force them or scare them or bribe them or give
them money. We were at Davao when Naniniwala naman ang mga ulol said, "Doon kayo magkalat sa
Luzon at sa ibang lugar, huwag dito sa Davao."I've mentioned it many times before: The separatist
movement in Mindanao is killing people because it wants to right historical wrongs the Moro people
have experienced since colonialism. We were able to pass the Organic Law for the Bangsamoro
Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao with the assistance of Congress, [applause] finally delivering
on a promise that had been made for decades. Our success in Marawi is also evidence of how the
patriotism of the Filipino people is much stronger than that of any extremist organization. There is no
place for lawlessness in this nation, as I have stated many times before. Today, Marawi is continuously
being rebuilt to be better. We must work quickly to Task Force Bangon Marawi. And you must complete
the tasks required to rebuild the war-torn city and send its [displaced] families home.Due to the distress
that was present there during the MARAWI SEIGE, our former president Duterte imposed martial law
there. By doing so, he encouraged the local populace to cooperate and lessen the civilian collateral
damage of the siege.
