Project SigLakas is a community-based health and development intervention co-created with ERDA Parents and ERDA Youth, a group of parent and youth beneficiaries of the Educational Research and Development Assistance (ERDA) Foundation, Inc. in Barangay 649, Port Area, Manila. SigLakas is a wordplay of the Filipino words “Sigla” and “Lakas” which means vigor and strength, of which the project aims to achieve with ERDA Parents and ERDA Youth. The goal of the project is to address the community’s health and rights-related concerns and aid in the internalization of human rights, especially the right to health. To achieve this, the students came up with 3 workshops that span across individual, team, and community levels reflecting the socio-ecological model of health. Each level aims to inform and capacitate participants on matters that affect and can contribute to the development of involved stakeholders at each level. The project was further aided by the UNODC’s Biophysical model which emphasizes viewing drug dependence from both a physical and psychological lens. Through integrating these models, Project SigLakas was able to operationalize long-existing public health models for a theoretically informed and sustainable community-based health intervention.
