Incidence of VAW and VAC at the Community Level

During the heights of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Department issued several Advisories for the monthly submission of reports on incidences of VAW and VAC at the Barangay level to serve as guide at the national and local levels in responding to issues against women and children.

Thus the importance of maintaining an updated data on VAW and VAC as it is regularly requested by our partner NGAs, NGOs, researchers and planners to serve as their references/bases in their planning and formulation of advocacy and capacity building interventions for women and children.
