Barangays are at the base of the pyramid of the Philippine bureaucracy. In addition to the traditional ways of doing things at the barangay level, barangay public servants are also most of the time, overworked and underpaid.

To achieve a more transparent, smarter, just, and accountable government in the Philippines, it is imperative to address these systemic problems and to empower barangay public servants as catalysts of change and innovation in their communities.

We believe that if we enable barangay leaders to be more effective, efficient, and innovative, we are also directly improving the lives of the thousands of people that they are sworn to serve in their local communities.
