ラスピニャス市での女性2人と子ども1人の殺害を非難する人権委員会の声明
⚠️(Trigger Warning: Violence, killings, assault)⚠️ The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) vehemently condemns the killings of three individuals in Las Piñas City. According to reports, a woman and her niece and nephew, aged 19 and 11, were killed after being struck with a two-by-two wooden plank (dos-por-dos) by her live-in partner in Barangay Pulang Lupa Dos, Las Piñas City. The suspect’s four-year-old son also witnessed the vile incident. The Commission condemns in its strongest form any act that impedes the most fundamental right – the right to life itself. Such heinous acts undermine the very essence of human dignity and security. This also highlights the ongoing threat of domestic violence […]

The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) extends its commendation to the Philippine National Police (PNP) for the activation of its virtual helpline for women and children who experience abuse, violence, and concerns related to their safety, protection, and empowerment. Dubbed “AlengPulis with the CyberSquad,” this initiative by the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group is a significant step in addressing the pervasive issue of gender-based violence, particularly in the digital realm. Gender-based violence remains a deeply alarming issue that affects countless individuals, especially women and children. Our increasingly digital world has unfortunately provided new platforms for abuse and exploitation, which heighten the vulnerability of the aforementioned sectors. As duty-bearer, it is incumbent upon […]

Statement of the Commission on Human Rights supporting the calls to ratify ILO Convention 190 to eradicate violence and harassment against women workers
Since the 1970s, the country’s labor market has been driven by export-oriented economic policies that employ women in industries such as domestic care, textile and garment production, food processing, and electronics manufacturing.[1][2] While this en masse recruitment of Filipina laborers paved the way for progress in addressing gender gap issues in terms of economic opportunities, educational attainment, and political participation, the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) stresses that women workers continue to experience diverse forms of discrimination in the workplace. The Commission notes that the Philippines has yet to ratify Convention 190 (C190) or the convention concerning the elimination of violence and harassment in the world of work since it […]

CHR報告書：COVID-19パンデミックにおける先住民女性と少女の状況
女性のマグナ・カルタは、先住民の女性と女児を、権利の保護、促進、擁護が必要な女性セクターの一つとして特定しています。彼女たちの基本的自由の実現において、彼女たちに対する差別の撤廃もまた極めて重要です。しかし、COVID-19によるロックダウンが全国的に実施された際、彼女たちのセクターに属する多くの人々が深刻かつ不均衡な影響を受けました。パンデミック以前から存在していた問題は、COVID-19がもたらした課題によってさらに悪化しました。ヒガオノンの女性リーダーの一人は、「私たちのコミュニティでは、多くの人が農業労働者、建設労働者、家事労働者として働いていました。しかし、ロックダウンのために、ほとんどの人が仕事を辞めざるを得なくなりました[…]」と振り返ります。
CHRジェンダー平等・女性人権センターは、女性の性的対象化を描いたシャツを販売する企業の即時撤去と調査を求める声明を発表した。
The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) as Gender Ombud is deeply alarmed and concerned that t-shirts portraying women in hypersexualized positions are openly marketed in different online platforms in the country. A report by Women’s Legal and Human Rights Bureau, a feminist non-government organisation, has alerted the CHR that the company called KNPP is openly selling hypersexualized t-shirts on Facebook, Lazada, and Shopee. The t-shirts depict women in lewd and hypersexualized positions, normalize the sexual objectification of women, and are clearly sexist and misogynistic. The posts and engagements on Facebook and other shopping outlets also reveal that the target market of the shirts are men and that many reports for […]
CHR事務局長、ジャクリーン・アン・デ・ギア弁護士は、がん患者女性に対するフィリピン保健省の経済的支援の提供を称賛する声明を出した。
The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) lauds the efforts of Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) to provide financial benefits for women with cancer and other gynecological issues. Health security is an essential aspect of upholding the right to health and overall well-being of women. Offering a health package that is tailor-fitted to the specific health issues of women is a concrete way to address their health problems and its huge implications to their welfare and economic security.

Coverage amount is PhP100,000 inclusive of surgery and chemotherapy, among others. Women with […]
Statement of the Commission on Human Rights as Gender Ombud condemning sexist and misogynistic campaigning and violence against women in politics
The Commission on Human Rights, as Gender Ombud, joins the collective condemnation of the manipulated and fabricated videos of Aika Robredo circulating online. The sexist and misogynistic style of campaigning in Philippine elections must stop. Since 2016, the Commission has spoken out against the rampant and normalized sexism and misogyny during and even after elections. During the height of the Chief Executive’s rape jokes, we have issued a resolution that such acts violate the Magna Carta of Women and called upon the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) to adopt a Code of Conduct for individuals running for positions. When Senator Leila de Lima’s alleged sex videos were threatened to be shown […]
ジェンダー平等と女性の人権担当担当委員カレン・S・ゴメス・ダンピット氏の声明 ジェンダーオンブズマンは女性の人権擁護者を称え、女性と女児に関する重要な法律の成立に女性の人権擁護者の功績を称える
This International Women’s Day, the Commission on Human Rights, as Gender Ombud honors and celebrates the important work of women human rights defenders in communities in national and international spaces, and of women human rights advocates in government. We celebrate the gains brought about women’s human rights and gender equality champions in passing key pieces of legislation enhancing protection for women and children. Last year, the work of advocates saw the passage of the law prohibiting child marriages, and this year, in time for international women’s day—the passage of another milestone—the law raising the age of sexual consent. For many years, the UN Committee on the Elimination of All Forms […]
第19回世界死刑反対デーにおける、人権委員会（CHR）の死刑反対担当委員カレン・S・ゴメス＝ダンピット氏の声明
Today, 10 October 2021, we observe the 19th World Day Against Death Penalty. This year’s observance focuses on the plight of women who risk being sentenced to death, those who are already in the death row, those who were pardoned or whose sentences were commuted. Likewise, we continue to call for the abolition of death penalty across the world even in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Among the problems that women face are sexual harassment while in prison, torture, lack of sufficient prison facilities, violation of fair trial, and lack of access to lawyers, and a good number of death penalty cases involving women stems from drug-related offenses. Women […]
CHRスポークスマン、ジャクリーン・アン・デ・ギア弁護士は、パンデミックや災害の際に女性と女児を保護するジェンダーに配慮した法律を支持する声明を出した。
The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) lauds the filling of Senate Bill No. 2372, also known as the proposed Gender-Responsive and Inclusive Pandemic and Disaster Management Act. Senate Bill No. 2732 recognises the gendered impacts of pandemics and other health concerns, emergencies, and disasters to women and girl-children, and seeks better protection for them through gender responsive and inclusive protocols and programming. As we also adopt a zero-tolerance policy towards gender-based violence, abuse and exploitation—which which is rooted in gender inequality and discrimination, we echo the stance of the proposed law that approaches and strategies relevant to disaster risk reduction, emergency, and pandemic management must integrate human rights and gender […]

Today, May 28, as the world commemorates the International Day of Action for Women’s Health, the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) gives the spotlight to how the Covid – 19 pandemic has disproportionally affected women, their health and overall well-being. While the pandemic has affected all of us, this public health crisis has magnified and exacerbated the longstanding gender inequalities in our society. The Silayan Report*, a gender and inclusion assessment of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic released in March 2021, noted that vulnerable groups have been rendered more vulnerable by the crisis.The study revealed that internally displaced women in evacuation centers, women with disabilities, and the urban poor […]
新型コロナウイルス感染症パンデミック時の女性漁民の悲惨な状況について、女性とジェンダーの権利を担当するCHR長官カレン・ゴメス・ダンピットの声明
One of the key sectors identified by the Magna Carta of Women (MCW) are women fisherfolks. Despite the significant size of the fishing industry and its contribution to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and despite the fact that fish is a huge part of Filipino diet, fisherfolks remain to be among the poorest of the basic sectors. The situation is even direr for women fisherfolks. Women fisherfolks are among the poorest – largely because of the non-recognition of their roles, the kind of roles they are engaged in, the low value and trivialization of their contribution, their lack of access to modes of production, and due to their multiple burden […]
