The Development Action for Women Network (DAWN) is a non-government, non-profit organization established in 1996 to assist distressed women migrants from Japan, as well as their Japanese-Filipino children, in the promotion and protection of their rights and welfare. In 2011, DAWN expanded its programs to include Filipino migrant domestic workers and their families. Its mission is to live in hope with the Filipino people, especially with the returning distressed migrant women and their children, through programs and services that enable them and their families to regain and strengthen their sense of dignity and self-worth, reclaim their wholeness and attain total development. Up to the mid-1980s, the vast majority of migrant workers were men. By the late 1980s, when the demand for service grew in the international arena, more women workers started to join the migrant workforce. This era marked the feminization of migration. There was a rapid increase in the number of women Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW). Most of them are domestic workers and entertainers. In the 1970's, the Philippines starts sending Overseas Performing Artists (OPAs). About 98% of OPAs go to Japan for work, where 95% are composed of women. The 1990s and 2004 saw a huge increase in the number of Filipino women who were deployed abroad as OPAs. Although the figure declined in 1996 with the implementation of stricter laws after the cases of Maricris Sioson in 1991 and Flor Contemplacion in 1995, there was an increase in the number of OPA deployment in 1997. The deployment reached 74,000 in 2003, and about 71,000 in 2004. It has long been accepted that women constitute the more vulnerable sector among OFWs. The Development Action for Women Network (DAWN) believes that women entertainers, particularly those who work in Japan, are more vulnerable to exploitation with the nature of their work. With the increase of women working in Japan as entertainers in Japan, problems arose, including the issue of Japanese-Filipino Children (JFC). The burden suffered by some of the women who worked in Japan as entertainers is likewise borne by their children. Given such scenario, six concerned individuals with different backgrounds but with a common passion for helping migrant women, met at a nun's residence in Quezon City, the Philippines, to minister to the birth of a new organization that would serve the cause. The six individuals are Aurora Zambrano, an Immaculati Cordis Mariae (ICM) sister; Carmelita Nuqui, who had extensive experience in helping woen overseas workers; Pearl Domingo-Flores, a health worker; Julia Racquel Rimando, a Medical Doctor; Leonardo Morada, a pastor; and Corazon Valdez-Fabros, a lawyer. Thus, on February 6, 1996, DAWN was registered with the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a non-stock, non-profit organization. DAWN was set-up in 1996 to address the growing number and concerns of distressed Filipina migrants from Japan as well as the growing number of JFC abandoned by their Japanese fathers. Its aim is to protect and promote the rights and welfare of Filipina migrants and the JFC, help them regain and enhance their sense of dignity and self-worth, and reclaim their wholeness in the process of their reintegration into their families and the larger Philippine society. Immediately after DAWN was set-up, Sr. Auring Zambrano and Ms. Mel Nuqui were invited for a series of meetings in Japan to explore possible areas of cooperation with different Japanese organizations. During their trips, Sr. Auring says that she learned a lot about the problems of migrants in Japan. One of the biggest problems is the overstaying of women who continue to work despite the lack of proper visas. Sr. Auring also says that she is saddened by the fact that a lot of women "are forced to go into prostitution in order to remain in Japan and survive." Other problems they noted were divorce and complicated relationships with Japanese men or other Filipinos with families in the Philippines, wife battering and abandonment. With all these problems and more, DAWN actively sought out partners who could assist them in helping these women, including their children, rebuild their lives. DAWN worked hand-in-hand with the Citizens' Network for Japanese-Filipino Children in Tokyo, the Japan International Center for the Rights of the Child of Osaka, the Lawyers for Japanese-Filipino Children based in Japan, the Kitami Maligaya in Hokkaido, JICHIRO (AllJapan Prefectural and Municipal Workers' Union), the Asia-Japan Women's Resource Center, and some Philippine-based organizations. At the onset, DAWN had to rely on its Board members and incorporators for the implementation of its programs and services. Donations from Filipino and Japanese friends provided the initial funds for DAWN's programs. Volunteers also lend their hands in the running of the programs. It has four core programs: 1. SOCIAL SERVICES 2. ALTERNATIVE LIVELIHOOD 3. RESEARCH AND ADVOCACY 4. EDUCATION And two support programs: 1. INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT 2. NETWORKING

Our mission is to realize peace in East Asia, including the Korean Peninsula, and sustainable life for young people. 1. Beyond the conflicts and antagonisms of East Asian countries, we want to create a symbiotic community centered on 'peace' and 'prosperity'. For this, PWK will become an East Asian platform that manages the absolute crisis facing mankind and achieves the UN sustainable development goals(UN SDGs). We are going to take a new path that will serve as the cornerstone of peace on the Korean Peninsula and peace community in East Asia. 2. PWK will send young Koreans to international cooperation sites and train them. Foreign NGOs who have entered Korea tend to stick to fundraising. They neglect to send young people to international cooperation sites. When young Koreans grow up solving various challenges at the international cooperation sites, they will be able to become the people who fit into the new era and lead our future. 3. PWK will support North Korea, which faces the worst situation in the world, but has unlimited potential. Instead of unilateral support, we are trying to help North Korea to promote co-prosperity as partners who will live together in East Asia. As history shows, symbiosis is the only way in East Asia.

CDRC aims to build capacities of the most vulnerable sectors comprising the poor majority to comprehensively prepare for and respond to potential disaster situations while addressing the root causes of their vulnerabilities through community-based disaster management, people-managed programs and services, and working with social movements that address poverty, social inequalities, and extractive, environmentally-destructive practices, policies and systems. CDRC regards the most vulnerable sectors as those whose socio-economic conditions make them highly vulnerable to hazards and disasters and yet comprise the majority of society, such as the workers, peasants, indigenous peoples, and other low income groups. CDRC gives special attention to those who have added vulnerabilities such as children, women, the frail, the elderly and people living with disabilities.
