November is National Children’s Month (NCM)!
The Council for the Welfare of Children - Official is beyond excited to announce the official theme for the 2021 NCM, “New Normal na Walang Iwanan: Karapatan ng Bawat Bata Ating Tutukan!”
As the Philippines gears eagerly towards catching up with its neighbor countries’ strategic and commendable pandemic response, the call for inclusivity remains relevant, especially in ensuring that the rights of the children are taken into account and given a high premium.
Taking off from the success of the 2020 NCM that is perhaps the biggest virtual event for children ever held in the country, this year’s theme shall serve as reiteration for the country to centralize its efforts towards ensuring that the rights of children are upheld and protected at all times!
