What We Do
UNICEF is supporting the Sixth Country Programme for Children (CPC 6) with the national government and the involvement of all sectors of society to provide the best quality of life for every Filipino child through programmes that help them survive and flourish.
Children in Need of Special Protection
More children in the Philippines are becoming victims of abuse, violence and exploitation. Nearly 1.7 million children do not have birth documents. Having no birth documents deprives children of basic health, educational and protection services, therefore making them increasingly vulnerable to different forms of abuse and exploitation.
Communication
More than ever, Filipinos are aware of children’s rights today, and children have more opportunities to communicate their thoughts, sentiments and insights. Journalists are becoming more aware of children’s issues and practicing more child-sensitive approaches to reporting.
