Break the Prevalence, End the Violence: Protecting Children, Creating a Safe Philippines.

 The 2024 National Children's Month (NCM) celebration centers around the theme *“Break the Prevalence, End the Violence: Protecting Children, Creating a Safe Philippines.”* This theme underscores the urgent need to address various forms of violence and abuse that children face, including physical, emotional, and sexual violence. The campaign aims to empower communities, families, and institutions to prioritize child protection, ensuring every child grows up in a safe and nurturing environment. By highlighting these issues, the celebration seeks to inspire collective action toward creating a society where children's rights are upheld and safeguarded.


This year's theme also emphasizes the importance of fostering a culture of prevention. Efforts include raising awareness through education campaigns, strengthening laws and policies, and providing accessible support systems for victims. Collaboration among government agencies, non-government organizations, schools, and local communities is vital in achieving these goals. The celebration aims to equip children and caregivers with the knowledge and resources to recognize and respond to threats, ensuring that no child is left vulnerable to violence.


The National Children's Month celebration serves as a reminder that every child deserves a life free from fear and harm. By breaking the cycle of violence, the Philippines can build a future where children thrive in safe, inclusive, and supportive environments. The call to action extends to every Filipino, urging them to take part in creating a nation that prioritizes the well-being and protection of its youngest citizens.

Reflection(Quarter 2)

  This quarter in ICT 10, I have been working on HTML tags and websites designing. It was interesting to see how different tags like  <h1>  for headers,  <p>  for paragraphs, and  <img>  for pictures are used for the layout of the web page. Creating web pages also helped me appreciate how information has to be arranged and syntax used. At first, I was a bit overwhelmed by the number of tags and their attributes that were required to be learned, but with time and practice, I was able to improve. This particular experience has provided me with an amazing experience in web development and made me excited towards building more complex and attractive pages in the future.

Such statistics is a concerning factor as VAW needs to be addressed because it is not only a gross violation of human rights of women but also engenders a society that is characterized by violence, inequalities and backwardness. Internationally and in the Philippines, several programs and legal mandates have been established to address VAW and assist the victims. One of these is the 18-day Campaign to End Violence Against Women which is held every year and aims to sensitize and advocate against VAW.
