Last 28 February 2025, the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) spearheaded the Pledge of Commitment Signing for Task Force Katotohanan, Katapatan, at Katarungan (TF KKK) sa Halalan with its partners from law enforcement agencies, accredited citizens’ arms, civil society organizations, and non-government agencies.
TF KKK sa Halalan is COMELEC’s implementing arm to enforce its guidelines outlined in Resolution No. 11064 on the regulation of the use, and the prohibition, and punishment of social media, artificial intelligence, and internet technology, for purposes of digital election campaigning for the 2025 National and Local Elections.
In July 2024, UP IGLR assisted the COMELEC in conducting the stakeholders forum and consultation dialogue on the use of AI technology in electoral processes. Inputs gathered from the consultation were considered by the COMELEC in the drafting of its Resolution No. 11064.
As a partner, UP IGLR reaffirms its commitment to supporting the COMELEC through education and information campaigns relevant to the 2025 elections that:
- promote accurate information
- combat falsehoods, and
- respect free speech.
