CHR releases situation report on gender-based challenges faced by solo parents
THE Commission on Human Rights has released a situation report highlighting the gendered challenges faced by solo parents in the Philippines.The report underscores the need for urgent, rights-based interventions to ensure their protection and access to essential services.Published on June 11, 2024 by the Center for Gender Equality and Women’s Human Rights or CGEWHR, the report delves into the complex realities of solo parenting, which is an issue that remains deeply gendered in the country.
Access to support services under RA 11861 remains inconsistent, largely due to varying capacities of local government units, lack of standardization in issuing Solo Parent IDs, untrained personnel and low public awareness.While solo parent organizations help fill in the gaps, many lack formal recognition and adequate resources.
