CAMELEON has been working in the Philippines for 25 years in order to facilitate the protection, healing and rehabilitation of young girls victim of sexual abuse (5-24 years old). 160 girls are currently protected and helped by CAMELEON : 80 of them are sheltered in our 3 centers based in Silay (Negros) and Passi City (Panay), while 80 girls continue to be guided after they left the center to go back to their families (if safe) or in welcome families accredited by social services.
Challenge
About 7,000,000 children are sexually abused every year in the Philippines. More than 70% of sexually abused children are between 10 and 18 years old. Among those victims, 20% are under 6 years old. Cases of child sexual abuse are one of the most common issues that the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has to handle after abandonment and neglect. Despite the Anti-Rape Law of 1997, rape remains the most frequent type of sexual abuse, followed by incest and fondling.
Long-Term Impact
Thanks to the project, 160 young girls victim of sexual violence will rebuild themselves and be resilient. They will build their future thanks to education and skills development. They will know their rights and invoke them in front of the court, which will help fight impunity. The families will change their behavior towards their daughters and promote Children's rights. The communities and local authorities will be mobilized together to prevent and deal with child abuse cases in these areas.
