With the government‟s strong desire to address the drug abuse problem, the
Dangerous Drugs Board launched the Barkada Kontra Droga in 2004. It is a preventive
education and information program created to counter the dangers and disastrous
effects of drug abuse. It aims to transform and develop the individual to be the catalyst
within his peer group in promoting a healthy, drug-free lifestyle thru participating in
various wholesome activities and engaging positive alternative endeavour in the
company of his friends. At least 65% of inmates accused/convicted have committed
crimes related to drugs. The mission of the new administration is to put a stop to secure
the production and distribution of illegal drugs. President Duterte wants a safe and
secure Philippine society for the Filipinos(PNP Directorate for Investigation).
Even before PRRD was elected as the Philippine President,Dangerous Drug
Board and the Department of Education have strengthened the drug awareness
program. National Drug Education Program is the primary approach among non-
users ,especially among children. In support of RA 9165, the Department have issued
an order emphasizing the role of educational system in the implementation of Article III
relating to the random drug testing of secondary or high school students. Article IV
calling for the participation of the family,students,teachers and the school authorities in
the enforcement of the Act.
This role has been incorporated into the NDEP which was set up in 1992 by
virtue of Republic Act 7624 entitled” Integrating Drug abuse Prevention and Control” in
the Intermediate and Secondary Curricula as well as the Non-Formal,Informal and
Indigenous Learning System. Another peer group was organized in order to lessen drug
related problems not just in school but also in the community
Barkada Kontra Droga is a peer group organized to provide and support school
activities that promote awareness and intervention to drug abuse and its related issues.
This group also supports the projects of the community and its local government with
the same objective. This organization is supported by the students, teachers, school
administrators, barangay council, local government unit, private institutions and other
identified stakeholders.
