trainings and workshop to train the barangay justice implementers on the structures,
procedures and application of the Katarungang Pambarangay Laws which covered the Basic
Principles and Proceedings of the Katarungang Pambarangay. Through this program, these
administrators ofjustice at the barangay-level are provided with increased procedural and
technical skills and knowledge in implementing the Katarungang Pambarangay. Cavite State
