Abstract: This report consolidates the findings of four case studies on the recruitment to violent extremism in Mindanao. Using good faith data collection methods, these case studies yielded information on the identity of the recruiting groups, the profile of their target recruits, the process of recruitment, and the opportunities exploited by these groups in insinuating the alternative for aligning the Bangsamoro with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) during the first six months of the Duterte Administration. Implications of recruitment to ISIS-inspired groups are analyzed in the context of the stalled Mindanao peace process. Recommendations are forwarded to strengthen community resilience against radicalization and harmonize efforts of various sectors to counter the narratives for recruitment to violent extremism.
