Comic Books Heighten Awareness of Violence Against Women
The Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Tuesday launched comic books tackling the issue of violence against women (VAW) – ranging from physical, psychological to economic abuse.
The launch of the comic books complements the joint program of the DILG, the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), the Department of Education (DepEd), the Department of Health (DoH), and the Philippine Commission on Women to establish VAW desks in every barangay in hopes of curbing discrimination against women.
