Philippine Plan of Action to End Violence against Children

The Philippine Plan of Action to End Violence Against Children in the Philippines is a set of strategies and recommendations resulting from the National Baseline Study on Violence Against Children in 2016 that details the roles and responsibilities for implementation of key government agencies.

Results of the study show the high overall prevalence of violence against children and youth in the Philippines, the presence of corporal punishment and verbal abuse in Filipino families, and high prevalence of violence in all forms to LGBT children and youth—among many other types of violence committed against our children.
