Dr Burgos is the chair of Desaparecidos (Families of Desaparecidos for Justice), an organization seeking justice for the many unaccounted for, said to be a hallmark of the Arroyo regime. 
Dkt Burgos ni mwenyekiti wa chama cha haki za Familia za watu Waliotoweka, yaani asasi inayotafuta haki za watu waliopoteza maisha yao pasipo kujulikana, jambo ambalo linasemekana ni kielelezo cha utawala wa Arroyo.
