THE TAG ENDS HERE

 

               Quarter Two was a like a roller coaster ride it had ups and downs, but it has finally come to an end. I have survived half the school year. And throughout the journey, I have learned a lot of things. Like about the functions of the HTML  (Hypertext Markup Language) tags. Mostly, I have learned about how significant tags and attributes are in web designs such as in inserting paragraphs, tables, rows, columns, background colors & images, font attributes, alignment & formatting tags, hyperlinks, and many more.

  The difficulties that I have encountered are the typhoons that continued to occur that caused delays to our lessons and activities. Moreover, our servers were almost down everyday due to the poor network connection that lead to our hands on activities unsaved. And I had difficulties in my mouse and keyboard because it was stiff that took my time a little longer than usual.

           After the occurrence of the typhoons and classes started to resume, our teacher gave us extra time to do our pending activities and quizzes. We discussed  I also asked for extra help from my classmates who are on the same server at the times where I was having a hard time on some of the activities.

             Moving on, I will continue to learn and apply the lessons that I have gained in our ICT class. Just like on the past quarter's reflection, I will try my best and I will do what it takes to make the best out of everything. And for me to successfully carry out my fourth year journey in ICT.

STOP THE VIOLENCE, PROMOTE PEACE AND INTEGRITY

Violence Against Women (VAW) is one of the country’s pervasive social problems. According to the 2022 National Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) conducted by the Philippine Statistics Authority, 17.5% of Filipino women aged 15-49 have experienced forms of physical, sexual, and emotional violence from their intimate partners. As of 2021, there were 8,399 reported cases of physical violence, 1,791 on rape, and 1,505 on acts of lasciviousness. Based on these statistics, violence is still prevalent and our country and it continues to be an societal issue in the country.

According to Republic Act 9262 or also known as the Anti-Violence Against Women and their Children Act of 2004, VAW is “any act or a series of acts committed by any person against a woman who is his wife, former wife, or against a woman with whom the person has or had a sexual or dating relationship, or with whom he has a common child, or against her child whether legitimate or illegitimate, with or without the family abode, which result in or is likely to result in physical, sexual, psychological harm or suffering, or economic abuse including threats of such acts, battery, assault, coercion, harassment or arbitrary deprivation of liberty.”

The 18 Day Campaign to end Violence Against Women (VAW) that starts from November 25 to December 12 that aims to end any form of violence against women.

This will strengthen laws about other forms violence like:

Republic Act No. 11313 or "The Safe Spaces Act"

- The policy of the State to value the dignity of every human person and guarantee full respect for human rights. It is likewise the policy of the State to recognize the role of women in nation-building and ensure the fundamental equality before the law of women and men. The State also recognizes that both men and women must have equality, security and safety not only in private, but also on the streets, public spaces, online, workplaces and educational and training institutions.

Republic Act No. 9207 or "Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2003"

- Is hereby declared that the State values the dignity of every human person and guarantees the respect of individual rights. In pursuit of this policy, the State shall give highest priority to the enactment of measures and development of programs that will promote human dignity, protect the people from any threat of violence and exploitation, eliminate trafficking in persons, and mitigate pressures for involuntary migration and servitude of persons, not only to support trafficked persons but more importantly, to ensure their recovery, rehabilitation and reintegration into the mainstream of society.

Together, let us build a society that is free from any harm or violence and aim for a place that promotes safety, equal rights, and inclusivity for all.
