And If I Was A Child, Did It Matter If You Got To Wash Your Hands?: Chldren's Rights For Children's Month
The 2024 National Children's Month event, which takes place in November, serves as a timely reminder of our shared need to safeguard our society's most defenseless citizens—our children. This year's campaign, with the theme "Break the Prevalence, End the Violence: Protecting Children, Creating a Safe Philippines," emphasizes how important it is to solve the ongoing problems of violence, neglect, and exploitation that many Filipino children deal with.
A multi-sectoral strategy is needed to make the Philippines a safer place for kids. Families, communities, schools, and governmental organizations must work together to improve children's support networks. Important first efforts include raising awareness, enforcing child protection laws more strictly, and providing accessible counseling services. Moreover, educating kids about their rights and empowering them to report abuse against them are essential components of fostering a supportive and safe atmosphere.
National Children's Month is a powerful reminder that safeguarding our children is not only required by law but also by morality. By working together, we can create an environment free from violence where every child can develop and dream.
