Guiao, an Ad-Hoc Committee Composed of 17 members, including former President Cory Aquino (FPCCA) made mention that since there were millions at EDSA in 1986, that a peoples consultative workshop be held prior to deciding to creating a Commission or utilizing a Foundation as its vehicle to institutinalize EDSA, instead of chosen 17 personalities in that exclusive meeting.

A 3-day Consultative Workshop was held at the AIM. The result of which was to form an EDSA Foundation instead of a Commission.
