victims don’t get justice due to weak law enforcement, victim-blaming, and social stigma. We wanted to
study the causes of rape, the effectiveness of laws, and how education can help prevent it. By raising
awareness, we hope to contribute to solutions that can make society safer.
2. Who will benefit from your study?
This study can benefit victims and survivors of rape, lawmakers, law enforcement officers, educators,
parents, students, and advocacy groups working towards a safer society.
3. What is the main problem your study aims to address?
The study aims to address the increasing number of rape cases in the Philippines.
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
[Link] did past studies say about rape?
Previous studies have shown that rape cases continue to rise despite the presence of laws like the Anti-
Rape Law of 1997. Research highlights weak enforcement, victim-blaming, and lack of education as
major issues. Studies also emphasize the need for better support systems and awareness programs.
[Link] is your study different?
Unlike other studies that focus mainly on legal aspects, our research explores public opinions on rape,
grooming, and the death penalty.
METHODOLOGY
1. Why did you use a survey?
We used a survey because it is an effective way to gather opinions from different people. It allows us to
collect diverse perspectives quickly and efficiently. Since rape is a sensitive topic, an online survey also
gives respondents privacy
[Link] were your participants?
Our participants were students and employed individuals from different parts of the Philippines. Most of
them were aged 18-25, but we also had responses from people under 18.
RESULTS AND FINDINGS
What are the main causes of rape based on your findings?
Our survey showed that the most common causes of rape, according to respondents, are:
Lack of parental guidance
Drug and alcohol abuse
Criminal behavior
Weak law enforcement
What solutions did respondents suggest?
Many participants believe that rape can be prevented by:
Stricter laws and faster legal action
Better parental supervision
Anti-drug programs
Education on consent and respect
What were the opinions on the death penalty?
Opinions on the death penalty were divided:
Some respondents believe it will scare criminals and reduce rape cases.
Others think it won’t be effective because some offenders don’t fear punishment.
CONCLUSION
What is your study’s conclusion?
Our study concludes that rape is a major problem in the Philippines that requires legal, social, and
educational solutions. While strict laws and law enforcement are necessary, they are not enough.
Awareness, education, and victim support services are also crucial in preventing sexual violence.
What are your recommendations?
We recommend:
Stronger law enforcement to ensure justice for victims.
More awareness campaigns to educate the public about consent and respect.
Improved support services like legal aid, counseling, and medical help for victims.
School programs to teach young people about gender equality and respectful relationships.
What are the limitations of your study?
The study had some limitations, such as:
A limited number of respondents, which may not fully represent the entire population.
Focus on public opinions rather than actual case studies of victims.
The sensitive nature of the topic may have affected how openly people answered.
