She added that “governments, institutions, as well as private individuals would need to work together more closely to reduce incidents of VAW, or even eradicate such incidents entirely.”
The seminar featured discussions by Ms. Cathy Torres, previously of UN Women, on VAW and its various manifestations, as well as by Ms. Sunny Graff, a feminist martial arts practitioner and trainer, on empowerment self-defense and confidence-building as a key strategy for the prevention of VAW.
Representatives from the Migrant Workers Office-Qatar, the Embassy’s Assistance to Nationals Section, and AMAN Center also provided information on existing mechanisms and relevant programs designed to address VAW.
An initiative originally institutionalized in 2006, the 18-Day Campaign to End Violence Against Women integrates the efforts of all Philippine government agencies, including Philippine embassies all over the world, to actively support and participate in the protection of human rights of women against violence and all other forms of discrimination.
