Exploring the Experiences of the IP Parents in the Implementation of Child Protection Policy in the Indigenous Cultural Community
Joseca Bagon | Noe Garcia
Discipline: social policy
Abstract:
This qualitative research, employing a phenomenological approach, explored the experiences of ten participants to
sightsee the implementation of the school Child Protection Policy in the Indigenous Cultural Community. Purposive
sampling was done as the participants were selected based on their characteristics and attributes as parents. In-depth
interviews featured: Rose, Elastic Woman, Bamboo, Balikbayan, and Harvester; while the Focused Group Discussion
involved Fu Marikit, Bong Fulung Ye, Sir Toe, Fye Bawe Libon, and Makisig. The study identified five critical
themes: Positive and Negative Impacts of Child Protection Policy; The Challenging Outcomes of CPP; The Challenges
in Implementing the CPP in the Indigenous Cultural Community; Overcoming Challenges with Resilience and
Communication, and Balancing Acts of Protection. These themes provided great insights into the multifaceted aspects
of CPP implementation, offering a comprehensive understanding of the Indigenous Cultural Community's dynamics.
By contributing to the existing body of knowledge, this research informs future initiatives, guiding efforts to enhance
the safety and well-being of children in Indigenous communities. The findings underscored the importance of tailoring
child protection strategies to the unique cultural context of Indigenous communities, fostering resilience, effective
communication, and a balanced approach to ensure positive outcomes.
