We, member organizations of the Girls Advocacy Alliance and Down to Zero Alliance in the Philippines, are committed to the protection of children. We envision a world where no child suffers domestic violence, sexual abuse, trafficking, exploitation and dangerous labor. Likewise, children in conflict with the law should undergo quality programs addressing every child“s physical, mental, emotional and psychosocial development enabling them to become productive members of our society. This, rather than a punitive approach, will create better outcomes for both children and society.
