Abstract
This project sees the transformational role of ICT as one that challenges existing models of political participation in the Philippines, where a central theme in the on-going socio-political reform effort is enabling participation in the process of governance. With the emphasis on participatory governance, the study centers on the use of an eParticipation portal ICT in the Philippine legislative process. It was pilot tested at the Senate’s Blue Ribbon Committee (BRC), also known as the Committee on Accountability of Public Officers and Investigations. The Senate’s BRC is constrained by regulations; only documents duly signed, endorsed, and stamped were allowed for use.
