With the concurring themes of the previous Lakbayan, the events of 2017 were also brought by their calls to resume peace talks regarding the war between the Government of the Republic of the Philippines and the Communist Party of the Philippines, to denounce the excessive destruction of Marawi, and to end martial law in Mindanao.
