Criminal profiling has been a useful technique for investigations around the world, although it hasn't been used much or studied much in the Philippines. This study investigates the obstacles, opportunities, and prospective developments of criminal profiling in the Philippines through the analysis of contextual realities and empirical inputs from criminology stakeholders. The purpose of the study is to describe respondent demographics, assess perceptions of challenges and opportunities, and evaluate profiling’s future directions within the country’s criminal justice system. A historical-descriptive research design was employed, combining literature review and survey methods. Forty-nine respondents, intentionally chosen from criminology students, academics, and practitioners in the National Capital Region, participated via a structured questionnaire that was validated by specialists and assessed for dependability. Frequency counts, percentages, and a weighted mean with descriptive interpretation to examine the data. The results showed that most of the people who answered were young men who were academically involved and just starting their careers, which suggests that this generation will have a big impact on how profiling is done in the future. Some of the main problems that were found were not reporting crimes enough, not having enough resources, not getting enough help from institutions, and the possibility of profiles being wrong. On the other hand, profiling was considered as a way to improve criminology education, encourage analytical thinking, and improve the results of investigations. Respondents were also hopeful about profiling's ability to find serial crimes, help people get well, and use AI in a way that is safe for people. The study indicates that, despite considerable systemic obstacles, profiling in the Philippines has potential as an innovative instrument for modernizing investigations, preventing crime, and managing offenders. These results have consequences for the creation of curricula, changes to policies, and training for professionals.
