00:00Pagdiriwang ng National Children's Month ngayong taon,

00:03ating pag-uusapan kasama si Undersecretary Angelo Tapales,

00:07Executive Director ng Council for the Welfare of Children.

00:11Yusek Tapales, magandang tanghali po.

00:15Itang makabating tanghali po sa ating lahat, Director Sheriel,

00:18at sa lahat po na nakikinig at nanonood po ng inyong programa.

00:21Thank you for inviting the CWC.

00:23Yusek, ano po ang tema ng National Children's Month ngayong taon?

00:26At ano po ang mensaheng na is iparating nito sa publiko?

00:33Director Sheriel, yung theme po natin for the 33rd National Children's Month is

00:37OSAEK si Saem Wakasan, Kaligtasan at Karapatan ng Bata Ipaglaban.

00:43As we all know, yung OSAEK is Online Sexual Abuse or Exploitation of Children.

00:48So yan po ang tema natin for this year kasi nakatutok po talaga

00:52ang ating pamahalaan sa pagpapababa at saka paglaban po talaga dito sa

00:56kumbaga dito sa scourge or harm na lumalapit po sa ating mga kabakalakan sa cyberspace po.

01:05Yusek, para maunawaan ng ating mga kababayan,

01:08ano po yung pangunahing layunin ng taonang pagdiriwang ng National Children's Month?

01:13Ako, Director Sheriel, yung National Children's Month ay pinagdiriwang natin bilang paggunita

01:20doon sa tinatawag na United Nations Convention on the Rise of the Child.

01:25Inadapt yan ang UN General Assembly noong November 20, 1988.

01:32At yan naman po ay pinirmahan, ilagdakan ng ating bansa noong 1990.

01:37And since then, pinagdiriwang na po natin yan, during the time of the Ramos administration,

01:43may mga presidential proclamation po na in-issue po dyan.

01:47Although noong unang po na ang Director Sheriel, October pa po natin pinagdiriwang,

01:52pero noong 2015, na-issue po yung Republic Act No. 10661.

01:57This is the National Children's Month.

01:59At yan po ay nagtalaga na na ito ay papamunuan ng Council for the Welfare of Children,

02:05DSWD at NYC, National Youth Commission.

02:08At ipagdiriwang po natin sa November of every year,

02:12para po gunitin ang UN Convention on the Rise of the Child,

02:16talagang ipakita ang pagpapihalaga po natin sa mga karapatan po ng bata.

02:20Yusek, ano-ano po ang mga pangunahing programa o aktividad ng CWC ngayong taon

02:26para itaguyod ang karapatan at kapakanan ng mga bata?

02:29Ako, Director Sheriel, yung celebration po natin,

02:34as always, ano po yan, ang ginagawa po natin ay yearly.

02:39Lahat po ay nagse-celebrate, all agencies of government, the schools and the LGUs,

02:44pero sa Council for the Welfare of Children po sa ating tinatawag na main office dito sa Manila,

02:52nakatutok talaga tayo dito sa, kunyari dito sa November 7,

02:57ating i-hold ng ating lunch ng National Children's Month.

03:04Ito po ay dito sa Crown Plaza Galleria kasi we are holding it,

03:09of course, with the DSWD and the NYC,

03:12pero kapartner po natin dito ang Department of Justice National Coordination Center for Osaic and Sisaem.

03:18Tapos pagkatas ng November 7, kickoff,

03:21from November 16 to 22, ito yung tinatawag na National Play Advocacy Week.

03:25Maraming pagdiriwang po tayo dito kasi karapatan din po ng mga bata yung paglaro or makataglaro,

03:32baka po hindi alam ng mga nakakatanda.

03:35At come November 24 naman, since our topic is online sexual abuse,

03:39we will be conducting a conference on parenting in the digital age

03:43pagkiputuruan si Mamit si Daddy para po matuto sa cyberspace at sa mga gadgets

03:48at para naman mabantayan ang mga bata.

03:51Then by November 26, partner po namin yung SM Cares.

03:55Magkakaroon po tayo ng NCM Culminating Activity dito po sa SM Mega Mall sa Atrium po nila.

04:01So yan po ang pinakaabalahan natin this November po, Director Sheryl.

04:06Sa kasalukuyan, paano po tinutugod na ng CWC yung mga isyong patuloy po na kinahaharap ng mga bata

04:13tulad ng, nabanggit nyo nga kanina, child abuse, online exploitation at child labor?

04:18So Director Sheryl, the Council for the Welfare of Children is an attached agency of the DSWD.

04:26We are the policymaking arm of the government when it comes to children.

04:29So nagsisimula ang aming participation sa paggawa po ng mga national plans po natin

04:35like the National Plan of Action for Children,

04:38the Philippine Development Plan po kung saan tinanong din po at in-interview at talagang kinonsulta ang mga bata.

04:44Doon sa paggawa po ng mga batas, yung mga laws po, yung Anti-OSA-Exime Act po natin,

04:51ayan po ay kasali po kami dyan, gumawa, maliban po doon sa ipabang mga naunang batas.

04:56And of course, mga programs, projects, and activities from the national level to the local government unit level po.

05:01So we are part of the child-friendly local governance audit na pinamumunuan po ng DILG.

05:07This is a yearly mandatory audit for our LGUs to ensure that they are child-friendly.

05:13At nakakatawa naman, Director Sheryl, noong 2022, nung pumasok at ayos ka gobyerno,

05:18itong administration na ito, yung child-friendly LGUs lang natin noon, 372 out of 1,634.

05:27Ngayon naman, after 3 years, yung 372 natin, 1,091 na.

05:32So ang tingnan yung tinalon, pero of course, we have a long way to go.

05:36Pero ganyan po kami, mulang policy making hanggang doon sa pag-capacitate po ng mga LGUs, kasali po tayo dyan.

05:42Saan nyo po in-attribute, Yusek, yung malaki pong itinalon ng bilang na binabanggit nyo po kanina?

05:50Opo. Tingin ko po, and I always say this mula nung nakarapang taong pa,

05:55sabi ko, we have a government that really listens to children.

06:00In fact, when the Philippine Development Plan was being drafted in late 2022, kasi for 2022 to 2028 yan,

06:08sabi nung mga katrabaho ko na dikada-dikada lang nasa Council for the Welfare of Children,

06:13Sir, first time lang pong nakonsult yung bata, and this is a good indication that this administration is listening to children.

06:21At hindi kami nagkamali, kasi kunyari, dito sa Usaping Usaik, kaya po itong tema natin ngayon,

06:27last year, nagkaroon kami ng mga sectoral meetings sa ating Pangulo mismo sa Malacanang,

06:32dahil nababahala nga siya na while bumaba ng kuunti ang mga cyber tip line reports na nare-receive natin,

06:38it's still a serious concern in the Philippines, kaya nagpalagay siya ng mga targets or indicators

06:43do sa child-friendly local governance audit.

06:45So, ngayon po, since may directive ang Pangulo, yan po ay nakasama na do sa 2025 guidelines,

06:52and LGUs now are really mandated to have Usaik ordinances, have Usaik-trained people

06:58para pag may nagsumbung pong bata at mga magulang,

07:00and of course, yung mga referral mechanisms po nila, kailangan meron sila.

07:04At yan po kasi tine-check na do sa audit, ano.

07:07At maganda ang cooperation ng lahat, buhay na buhay,

07:10ang National Coordination Center on Usaik-NCC,

07:13and of course, kasama namin ng DOJ dyan, ang PNP, NBI,

07:17at iba't ibang mga ahensya pa po na talagang lumalaban po dito sa online sexual abuse.

07:22Sa usapin naman po ng edukasyon at kalusugan,

07:25ano po ang mga inisyatibong isinusulong ng CWC

07:28para matiyak na may akses ang lahat ng bata sa dekalidad na serbisyo.

07:32Opo, we are very closely partnering with the Department of Labor.

07:39For instance, issue po ng isang mga skwelahan na conducive for learning,

07:47yan po ang concern namin with the DepEd.

07:50Recently, the DepEd issued a revised version of the implementing rules and regulation

07:55of the anti-bullying law of 2013.

07:58So, in-improve po ng DepEd yan para po ang mga bata ay hindi nabubuli sa mga skwelahan

08:02at ang mga bullying incidents po ay talagang nare-record at nare-record.

08:07Nothing is being swept under the rug, so to speak.

08:10At ang ginawa po namin dyan, we even sign an MOU with the DepEd

08:15to connect their hotline to the Makabatak Helpline 1383.

08:18So, nagtutulungan po kami dyan.

08:21And nagkaroon kami ng bullying seminar or conference din with DepEd.

08:28Nag-attend tayo dyan na ginawa dito sa Ateneo, dito sa Ateneo Grade School.

08:32So, we are closely partnering with them because, of course, we are promoting

08:36and DepEd is really working on this.

08:38Yung quality of education, they want to improve it.

08:42But children, of course, cannot focus on education if they are not safe in our schools.

08:46And saludo po kami sa DepEd dahil po talagang ang kaligtasan ng mga bata ay tinututukan po nila.

08:52Sa inyong pananaw po, gaano kahalaga ang papel ng pamilya at komunidad

08:56sa pagtataguyod ng karapatan at kaligtasan po ng mga bata?

09:03Director Sherrill, very important po ang family, tayong mga parents.

09:07At the Council for the Welfare of Children, and I always say this when I speak in front of people,

09:13child protection starts at home.

09:15So, bilang mga magulang, tayo po ang unang nagbabantay sa ating mga anak,

09:20yung mga tagapangalaga po ng bata.

09:22So, kaya inaabot po namin ang mga magulang, we are creating awareness

09:26because most of the violence against children reported with the PNP

09:30really are corporal punishment, being done by some misguided parents

09:38na medyo sinasaktan ng todo-todo ang mga bata in the name of discipline.

09:43So, we want to change that because child protection should really start in our homes.

09:47And after that, it continues in our schools.

09:50Kaya po, katrabaho rin namin ng DepEd, and it continues in our communities.

09:54That's why we want LGUs to be child-friendly.

09:57And of course, naandito naman sa taas ang mga national government agencies,

10:02like the DSWD, of course, led by our boss, Secretary Rex Gatchalian.

10:09Talagang nakatutok po siya dito.

10:11The PNP, the NTI, DOJ, everybody's working po.

10:15Siguro, banggitin ko na rin, last December 6, 2024, the President signed EO 79.

10:20This is the Makabata EO.

10:22It seeks to harmonize what everybody, all government agencies are doing for children.

10:28Hindi na working in silos, hindi na kami kanya-kanya,

10:31hindi na nagbabanggaan ng mga proyekto.

10:34We are now finalizing the implementing guidelines.

10:37So, from reporting kung saan papasok yung makabata helpline,

10:40may rescue relief, rehabilitation and integration.

10:43Lahat po yan, ilalatag natin.

10:45Lahat magtutulungan from the national to the local level po.

10:49Yusek, may mga programa po ba ang CWC na nakatoon naman sa street children,

10:54indigenous children o mga batang nasa conflict-affected areas?

10:58Opo. Actually, we are, of course, we are an attached agency of the DSWD.

11:05So, we work with the DSWD when it comes to children in street situation.

11:09Kasi ang cover naman ng DSWD, families and children in the street.

11:14So, mas malawak yung sa kanila.

11:16As to the child component or children component, we heavily partner with them.

11:20And this is also in relation to EO52, which was issued, if I'm not mistaken, last year din, January 2024.

11:29It is the back-about program.

11:31Kung nakikita mo ang DSWD at kung nakikita nyo po, director,

11:36pati si Secretary Rex Gachalian lumalabas yan.

11:39To reach out to families and children in the streets.

11:43Of course, to extend the services of the government.

11:46Unang-una, pagkuhan ng data nila so that they can get birth certificates.

11:51Pwede silang tulungan makabalik sa mga lugar na pinanggalingan nila.

11:54And of course, with the interventions that the DSWD can extend.

11:59And the DSWD dito sa EO52 po, does not only extend help to the children or to the families,

12:06pati po dun sa LGU na pagbabalikan.

12:08Kapabalikan, the DSWD can also help them to ensure that these people won't go back to the urban areas.

12:15Yun po ang kaibahan ng EO52 dun sa mga attempts po, sa mga nakaraang panahon po.

12:20You said, kamusta naman po yung pakikipag-ugnayan ninyo sa mga lokal na pamahalaan,

12:24paaralan, pati na rin po yung mga NGO,

12:27para mas mapalawak pa yung kampanya para sa karapatan ng mga bata?

12:31Opo, ngayon po pinagtibay, as I mentioned earlier, Director Sheryl, yung EO79,

12:38talagang siguro na-realize ng mga tao na din sa gobyerno

12:41na marami tayong ginagawa kanya-kanyang ipagpapabibo,

12:46pagpapalunsad ng mga proyekto na nakakatulong sa iba't-ibang klaseng sektora.

12:53But more often than not, sometimes, or sometimes,

12:56these projects or programs conflict with each other or are duplications of each other.

13:01Kaya sabi nung makabata program,

13:03everybody's doing a lot but we are not perhaps coordinated enough.

13:08So, ang pinagtibay po doon, everybody should work together.

13:12In-enumerate ang implementing agencies sa almost 30 implementing agencies

13:17and of course, marami tayong partners din from the private sector

13:21because the private sector will help too.

13:23Na-realize po ng ating pamahalaan, the government cannot do it alone,

13:27not even the biggest government agencies like the DepEd and the DSWD.

13:31So, ito po, antayin po natin, once the implementing guidelines come out,

13:36lahat po ng concern ng children in need of special protection,

13:40ito yung mga biktima ng mga violence against children, sexual abuse,

13:43yung mga nasa kali, lahat po yan ay tutugunan ng pamahalaan

13:47with a wide spectrum of interventions.

13:50And there is really an earnest attempt for everybody to cooperate with each other

13:56para po hindi nagkakalituhan po.

13:58Isa po sa mga layuni ng National Children's Month

14:01ay ang pagpapalakas ng kamalayan ng publiko sa karapatan ng mga bata.

14:05At base po sa mga nabanggit nyo kanina,

14:08sa tingin nyo po ba, may sapat na kaalaman na ba ang mga Pilipino tungkol dito?

14:12Siguro marami pa tayong kailangan gawin

14:17because as I mentioned earlier, 1988 pa po yung UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

14:23And I must admit, not all Filipinos are really familiar with it.

14:29Karamihan sa provision ng UNCRC ay naisabatas na natin,

14:32kasama dito sa yung paglaban sa sexual abuse,

14:36yung sa paglaban sa child abuse through our Republic 7610, RA 7610.

14:43Marami na po tayo naisabatas ngunit hindi pa po sapat.

14:46Kaya ang pamahalaan po ay hindi tumitigil.

14:49And in fact, we want to focus on the parents and the family also.

14:52Kasi yun nga, kung hindi po magbabago ang mentalidad ng mga matatanda,

14:57tayo po, yung generation natin,

14:59kung paano natin tingnan ng bata,

15:01ang kanilang mga karapatan,

15:02ang ating obligasyon sa kanila,

15:05eh syempre po, hindi po mag-i-improve talaga fully

15:08at napakabilis ng karapatan ng bata.

15:11That's why we have to work with each other talaga po.

15:14We want to change some of the bad ways of thinking

15:18or yung mentality na nakakasama.

15:20And we want to engender a social behavioral change po talaga

15:24para ang ating generation magbago.

15:27Of course, mas ma-i-guide po natin ang ating mga kabataan

15:30na talagang pag-aasa po ng ating bayan.

15:32Sa panahon po ngayon ng digital age,

15:35paano po pinoprotektahan ng CWC ang mga bata

15:38laban naman sa online threats at cyberbullying?

15:43Opo, yan. Very important din po yan.

15:46Ako personally, I want to say that the threat

15:49is really from the internet now

15:51kasi po with the advent of technology

15:53and because of the digital age.

15:55That's why, as I mentioned earlier,

15:57we partnered with the DepEd to combat bullying

16:00including cyberbullying.

16:02We are in the process of signing an MOU

16:04with the Cybercrime Investigation Coordination Center.

16:08Kaibigan po natin yung mga tao diyan.

16:09And of course, the DICT, dati pa nating partner

16:12with the eGov Super App.

16:14Kasi po, ang threat ay naan dyan talaga.

16:17We are now partners also with the PNP Anti-Cyber Crime Group

16:21and the NBI, isa sa unang partner na mga kabata,

16:24helpline 1383 yan.

16:26Gusto natin protectahan doon.

16:28But of course, the government cannot do it alone.

16:30That's why, this month, we will be conducting that conference

16:33on parenting in the digital age

16:34because, Director Sherry,

16:37we need to teach parents and children life skills

16:40para hindi sila maging willing victims

16:42nitong masasamang tao po sa internet

16:44because the government cannot really monitor everybody 24-7.

16:49Paano naman po, Yusek, yung mga hindi online,

16:52yung mga hindi po limited ang access sa internet?

16:56So paano po natin sila ma-equip

16:59para po sa skills na kailangan po dito?

17:03Opo, dito po mapasok yung ating partnership with the LGUs.

17:09We are aware that there are many geographically isolated

17:16and disadvantaged areas natin.

17:19Many far-flung barangays na pangit ang connectivity.

17:22Hindi natin sila ma-abot.

17:23That's why we are also using the internet to reach them.

17:27You will notice that the programs of the government,

17:30including those of the Council for the Welfare of Children,

17:33are being broadcast.

17:35Meron kami mga knowledge management sessions through the internet.

17:38So we use social media.

17:40We use our website because we have to reach everybody.

17:43Yung child-friendly local governance audit is a strategy.

17:47Kaya lang 1,634 ang LGUs.

17:50I think it's 1,642 na nga.

17:52Nadagdagan daw ngayon.

17:53That's why we are also leveraging technology to really reach people.

17:58And dun sa hindi masyadong maabot ng technology,

18:02we rely on our LGUs and our barangay and our partners.

18:05So tulong-tulong po talaga.

18:07We need to reach them at the soonest possible time

18:10because they need to know that children have rights

18:14and of course we have to protect them.

18:17Yung second mensahe, o paalala nyo na lang po

18:19sa ating mga kababayan ngayong pagdiriwang

18:21ng National Children's Month.

18:25Opo, para po sa mga mami-daddies,

18:27mga nangangalaga sa bata,

18:29and sa mga bata na rin po na nanonood ng ating programa ngayon,

18:33tandaan po natin na talagang ang mga bata

18:35o ang kabataan ng pag-asa ng bayan,

18:38ngunit kung hindi po natin sila po protektahan at taalagaan,

18:41hindi po sila magiging pag-asa.

18:43Ika nga po namin sa Council for the Welfare of Children,

18:46basta bakit tayo po dapat lahat ang bahala

18:49dahil sa bagong Pilipinas,

18:52bawat bata ay mahalaga.

18:54Alright, maraming salamat po sa inyong oras.

18:57Council for the Welfare of Children Executive Director

19:00Undersecretary Angelo Tapales.
