A multi-sectoral group led by Catholic priests is behind a planned memorial shrine for the people killed in Rodrigo Duterte’s bloody drug war – a project that is hoped to serve as a reminder of the “government’s systematic killings” that should not be allowed to happen again.

The project is both practical and existential – it aids poor families who have no means to give their loves ones a final resting place, while preserving the national memory of the spate of violence that marked the Duterte administration.
