Commission on Human Rights - NCR

Happy Pride Month! 🌈

Ngayong buwan ng Hunyo, ipinagdiriwang natin ang pagkakapantay-pantay, dignidad, at karapatan ng bawat tao na mabuhay nang malaya at walang diskriminasyon. Sama-sama nating itaguyod ang paggalang, pagkakaiba-iba, at pagkakaisa para sa isang mas inklusibo at makataong lipunan.

Noong Mayo 30, 2026, nagsagawa ang CHR-NCR, sa pangunguna at suporta ng Tanggapan ni Councilor Shannin Mae Olivarez, ng lecture para sa mga opisyal at kinatawan ng mga barangay sa Baclaran, Parañaque City tungkol sa mga batayang karapatan at mandato ng Commission on Human Rights. Layunin ng aktibidad na palawakin ang kaalaman at kamalayan sa karapatang pantao bilang pundasyon ng isang makatarungan at mapayapang komunidad.

Ang kaalaman sa karapatang pantao ay daan tungo sa mas responsableng paglilingkod at mas makataong lipunan. Sa huli, ang isang komunidad na may kaalaman sa karapatang pantao ay isang komunidad na mas makatarungan, mapayapa, at may malasakit sa kapwa.

Every ride counts. 🚲

Bicycles help keep our bodies healthy, our communities connected, and our environment cleaner for future generations. No matter the age, cycling promotes well-being, supports sustainable transport, and reminds us that simple choices can help build a safer, greener, and more inclusive world for all.

Sa patuloy na pagtataguyod ng karapatang pantao at pagpapahalaga sa dignidad ng bawat tao, nagsagawa ang Commission on Human Rights-National Capital Region (CHR-NCR), sa pamamagitan ng Promotion and Advocacy Division, ng seminar sa Quezon City Jail Male Dormitory ukol sa HR 101, Mandato ng CHR, Safe Spaces Act, at Anti-Cyberbullying, noong May 28, 2026.

Layunin ng aktibidad na palawakin ang kaalaman at kakayahan ng mga tauhan ng BJMP sa pagprotekta at pagtataguyod ng karapatan ng mga Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs), pagsusulong ng pagkakapantay-pantay ng kasarian, at pagpapanatili ng ligtas at magalang na kapaligiran sa loob at labas ng kulungan.

Sa pamamagitan ng patuloy na edukasyon at kamalayan sa karapatang pantao, higit na napagtitibay ang makatao, makatarungan, at may dignidad na paglilingkod para sa lahat.

On May 26, 2026, the CHR-NCR Regional Director and Legal Unit, in coordination with the Linkages Office–Campaigns and Advocacy Division, conducted an engagement with Manila City Vice Mayor Angela Lei “Chi” Atienza regarding the proposed establishment of a Human Rights Action Center (HRAC) in the city.

The discussion highlighted the HRAC’s role as an institutional mechanism for strengthening human rights protection and enhancing coordination among local stakeholders. The engagement also provided an opportunity to explore potential partnership and collaboration with the city government.

Nagsagawa ang CHR-NCR, kasama ang Regional Juvenile Justice and Welfare Committee–NCR (RJJWC-NCR), ng monitoring visits sa Pasay Bahay Pag-asa (BPA) at Pasay City Jail noong Mayo 28, 2026.
