As the country celebrates the National Children’s Month (NCM) this November, a child’s rights organization called for the protection of rights of children facing discrimination and social exclusion.

As they suffer the “worst forms” of violence and social exclusion, Save the Children Philippines called for protection of rights of children facing discrimination due to poverty, and gender and cultural identity.

“Rights are denied to children based on many intersecting factors, including economic situation, their gender, their ethnicity or disability,” said Muyot, a former Undersecretary of the Department of Education . In relation to this, Save the Children Philippines has been implementing innovative programs to push for rights of children with disabilities to have access to regular classes through partnership with the DepEd.

Given this, Muyot underscored the need for the enactment of the Inclusive Education bill will “provide for the implementation of concrete programs and allocate budget to support education of children with disabilities especially those from deprived families and children living in remote provinces.”
