Topic: A Thousand Voices: Building Solidarity with the Filipino Children
Despite various proclamations by the Philippine government and local laws protecting children, the current situation in the Philippines is still dangerous for them. A majority of children come from the most vulnerable sectors of society, and are victims of poverty, lack of access to education, and the effects of state violence in their communities.
In time for the Children’s Month commemorated in the Philippines, this webinar will tackle the current situation of the Filipino children, highlighting the impacts of human rights and international humanitarian law violations. It will feature resource speakers from the Children’s Rehabilitation Center and Salinlahi.
This webinar will also serve as the launch of a year-long solidarity campaign by the Foundation for Filipino Children, a member organization of the International Coalition for Human Rights in the Philippines.
