the 2024 National Children's Month Celebration

 


The 2024 National Children’s Month (NCM) celebration in the Philippines, with the theme “Break the Prevalence, End the Violence: Protecting Children, Creating a Safe Philippines,” focuses on addressing and combating violence against children. This theme underscores the urgency of ending child abuse, neglect, exploitation, and other forms of harm that children face in society. It also emphasizes the need for a collective effort from various sectors of society—government, communities, and families—to ensure a safer environment for children to grow, learn, and thrive.


In celebration of the 32nd National Children’s Month (NCM) this November, the Council for the Welfare of Children (CWC), an attached agency of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), announced that this year’s event is focused on advocating to end all forms of violence against children.

In the DSWD Thursday Media Forum on October 31, CWC executive director Undersecretary Angelo Tapales told reporters that in 2023, the Philippine National Police-Women and Children Protection Center (PNP-WCPC) received 18,756 reports of child rights violation.

“Dyan sa number na yan, 17,304 reports ay violence against children or yung child abuse na tinatawag natin, rape at acts of lasciviousness. Since 2016 ay ito na ang top three na violation sa mga bata,” Undersecretary Tapales told reporters at the weekly forum.

To report child abuse cases and other violations against children, Undersecretary Tapales said the public may call the Makabata Helpline 1383.

“Pag tumawag dyan sa numero na yan, sigurado na may tulong na matatangap,” the CWC executive director said.

As an attached agency of the DSWD, the CWC performs the function of formulating policies and monitoring and evaluating the implementation of laws, programs or projects for children and youth below 18 years old.

    Your post did share bits of information. But, I suggest that in writing should also be in a composed structure. Keep it up and share where children can play.

Thank You for The Awesome Experience Second Qurter!!!

 During the second quarter, I gained valuable learning experiences that helped me improve both academically and personally. I learned how to manage my time better, more manageable steps, which made them less stressful. I also discovered new strategies for problem-solving, which helped me understand and apply my lessons more effectively. Through these experiences, I gained more confidence in my ability to handle difficult topics and challenges, allowing me to grow and improve. The challenges that I encounter is that I am not fast when it comes to typing words especially our topics is encoding but at time passes by I am slowly getting fast typing words in our computer but even though I am already fast, our computer kept turning off when someone unintentionally touch or move the outlet wherein the computer is plugged in and we need to do it again. It is time consuming especially when we don't finish it by the time our class has end and we need to do it by the other day, that will lead...

Forgive and reset.

  T his year 2025 is all about letting go of the past and set new goals for this year. I want 2025 to be full of improvements not just academically and sports but also focusing on enhancing self confidence. Discover more and more things about life. I hope this year is going to be gentle on me and be one of the best year for  me. Personally i believe the first step of having a good year is forgiving the people who hurt you, made you feel left out, bullied you, doubt you; Because if you still do not let it go in the end your the one who will suffer. focusing to your self is the option and always believe to god because god always has a plan. Dont lost hope and the pain you went through in 2024 serve it as a lesson about life. This new year is all about reaching my goal. focusing on academics and sport. Get hungry for more improvements and never forget to the people who has been supporting you through this battle. Progress takes time thats why this year i will cut of any laziness....
