Carmona Water District joins the observance of the 2023 18-Day Campaign to End Violence Against Women

Despite significant and continuing efforts of the government in bridging the gender gap, violence against women (VAW) is still pervasive and entrenched in Philippine society. The 2022 National Demographic Health Survey (NDHS) released by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed that 1 in 5 women (18%) aged 15-49 had experienced physical, sexual, or emotional violence from their husband or intimate partner. Globally, about 1 in 3 women (30%) had experienced either physical and/or sexual violence from an intimate partner or non-partner in their lifetime as indicated by estimates published by the World Health Organization (WHO).

The 6-year theme (2022-2027), UNITEd for a VAW-free Philippines, aligns with UN Women’s UNITE by 2030 to End VAW Campaign (UNITE), highlighting the powerful impact of combining individual efforts towards a collaborative and united thrust for a VAW-free Philippines.

Together, we can make it better. Let’s stop #VAWC!
