"The Council for the Welfare of Children (CWC), United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and its partners on Wednesday launched a multi-sectoral strategy action plan to end violence against children (VAC) in the Philippines," says this article from ABS-CBN News. This plan of action, the Philippine Plan of Action to End Violence Against Children (PPAEVAC) is informed by the National Baseline Study on Violence against Children in 2016 and outlines the roles and responsibilities of key government agencies to help prevent and address violence against children.
Strategies in this plan include evidence-based parenting and positive discipline programs, personal safety lessons and life-skills in curriculum in schools, improving children's access to protective and helpline services, mobilizing child protection systems at all levels effectively, monitoring the implementation of all laws related to violence against children, and more.
