Violence Against Women Hotlines

As the Enhanced Community Quarantine is implemented in the different parts of the country, the cases of domestic violence is projected to increase.

In the Philippines, 1 in 4 women aged 15 to 49 experience physical, emotional, or sexual violence from their husband or partner. In the wake of emergencies, intimate partner violence may rise with many people spending time indoors.
