Welcome to the ADO Database, a comprehensive resource on local anti-discrimination ordinances across the Philippines. This database serves as a valuable tool for advocates, researchers, and community members seeking to understand and promote equality for all, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC).

Here, you can explore a growing collection of ordinances that have been enacted by local government units (LGUs) to protect individuals from discrimination in various aspects of life, including employment, education, and public services. Use our interactive map and search features to find specific ordinances by location, compare policies, and stay informed on efforts to safeguard LGBTQI rights nationwide.
