HATAW to End Violence Against Women (EVAW) 2022
The 18-Day Campaign to End VAW supports the Philippine government’s goal of protecting the human rights of women and girls by upholding its commitment to address all forms of gender-based violence as enshrined in the 1987 Constitution. By virtue of Republic Act 10398 or the Act declaring November 25 of every year as the National Consciousness Day for the Elimination of VAWC.
The 2022 18-Day Campaign to End VAW aims to:
- Promote awareness on the forms of violence women and girls experience, provide information on the laws protecting women and girls, and feature VAW-related services that people can access and avail;
- Gather insights on the general public’s level of awareness on VAW, specifically on the Anti-Violence Against Women and their Children Act (Republic Act 9262 ) , Safe Spaces Act (Republic Act 11313), and the Expanded Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act (Republic Act 9208 as amended by Republic Act No. 11862)
- Highlight the gains and milestones in the efforts to prevent and address VAW and the Philippines’ participation in the global campaign to end it.
As an advocate of Gender and Development, the faculty and staff of ISAT U Leon show their support for gender equality, equity, and women’s empowerment through Caravan and HATAW TO FIGHT EVAW from different municipalities (Leon, Iloilo to Badiangan, Iloilo vice versa). The activity was led by Ms. Jeremy Lamoste, GAD Coordinator of ISAT U Leon Campus.
