In a bid to improve Philippine media reportage on OSEC, ChildFund Philippines, along with marketing and public relations firm Evident, underscored the need to have proposed guidelines that would set proper definitions of OSEC-related abuses, and provide principles for reporting issues involving children.
ChildFund Philippines is the country program of ChildFund International, an international NGO that works with local community organizations, children, young people and their families, governments and corporations to help create safe environments for children to thrive. According to the national baseline study on violence against children conducted by the United Nations Children’s Fund , sexual violence “comprises around one in every five cases. ” Incidence of violence is also “higher” for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender children. “The prevalence of violence, in all forms, is highest at home,” the study said.
The articles collected and analyzed by Evident were then categorized into three news groups, namely: coverage on OSEC crimes, relevant bills/ laws and programs, and incidence and case study reports.
