Organizational Structure
Why IPER?
The
Filipino people rose in a people power revolution against the Marcos
dictatorship in 1986. Again, we did it in 2001 against the corrupt Estrada
government.
The
issue in 1986 was democracy. The issue in 2001 was good governance.
These
historic events highlighted the need for electoral and political reforms
in Philippine society. IPER came into being in 1991 in answer to the
call.
