Globe provides laptops to Bohol barangays

In support of digital inclusion and grassroots empowerment, Globe donated 10 refurbished laptops to several barangays in Bohol to start off their digitalization journey and adoption of eGovernance.
SEVERAL barangays in Bohol recently received 10 refurbished laptops from Globe in support of digital inclusion and grassroots empowerment.
SEVERAL barangays in Bohol recently received 10 refurbished laptops from Globe in support of digital inclusion and grassroots empowerment.
These laptops will support the work of the Lupon Tagapamayapa, a barangay-based group tasked with helping the community resolve disputes peacefully.
By shifting from typewriters to laptops, the Lupon can reduce manual errors, keep digital records rather than hardcopies for convenience, send and receive documents via email, and store important files securely. It’s a small shift that can make day-to-day processes smoother and help barangay officials focus on what matters most.
The turnover was recently held at the Provincial Capitol in Tagbilaran City, where Board Member Benjie Arcamo – representing Vice Gov. Tita Baja – delivered the keynote address. He was joined by first district Board Member Aldner Damalerio, Liga ng mga Barangay President Romulo Cepedoza, and Globe Vice President for External Affairs Patrick Gloria.
Arcamo and Cepedoza thanked Globe and Damalerio for their steadfast support in advancing ICT development across the province. Barangay Captain Joseph Sagaral of San Isidro, Tagbilaran City, also thanked them on behalf of all the beneficiaries.
Recipient barangays are San Isidro in Tagbilaran City; Santo Rosario in Antequera; Guiwanon in Tubigon; Canapnapan in Corella; Dangay in Albur; Santa Cruz in Calape; Cogon Norte in Loon; Magsija in Balilihan; Triple Union in Catigbian, and the municipality of Cortes.
“This initiative is part of Globe’s ongoing efforts to create a #GlobeOfGood by enabling communities through technology. We recognize the vital role of the Lupon Tagapamayapa in maintaining peace and order on the grassroots level, and we are proud to support them with tools that improve access, accuracy, and efficiency,” Gloria said.
Arcamo welcomed the support. “This contribution from Globe will directly improve how our barangay peace councils carry out their duties. Access to these resources helps formalize their work and enhances the services they provide to the public.”
Sourced through Globe’s sustainability programs – which promote electronic waste reduction by extending the life and value of digital devices – the initiative also supports the province’s Strategic Change Agenda under Gov. Aris Aumentado, advancing digital inclusion and community resilience within the Bohol Island United Nations, Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization Global Geopark and Regenerative Island framework.
Globe remains committed to nation-building by expanding access to digital tools, supporting inclusive development, and enabling community resilience through technology-driven solutions.
