One project aims to strengthen the role of BVAWC desk officers by organizing capability enhancement programs and projects in collaboration with local government units (LGUs), state colleges and universities (SUCs), and other relevant organizations.
Additionally, another project aims to enhance the peace and order capabilities of barangay tanods through the Barangay Tanod Skills Enhancement Project (BaTSEP), focusing on capacitating barangay police to improve security, peace, and order in their respective communities.

The implementation of the BVAWC project is scheduled for April 17 at the BiPSU Gym, targeting barangay captains, sangguniang barangay members, and barangay secretaries within the province. Concurrently, deliberations are ongoing regarding the execution of the BaTSEP project.
