On this International AIDS Candlelight Memorial, the Commission on Human Rights Region VII joins communities around the world in remembering the lives lost to AIDS and standing in solidarity with all individuals and families affected by HIV and AIDS.

This memorial is not only a time to honor memories, but also a call to strengthen compassion, understanding, and respect for human dignity.

CHR VII remains one with advocates, healthcare workers, communities, and persons living with HIV in promoting awareness, inclusivity, and access to humane and rights-based healthcare and services.

Together, let us continue to light the path toward a more compassionate society where no one is left behind.

For nearly four decades, the CHR has remained steadfast in its commitment to protect, promote, and uphold the rights and dignity of every Filipinoโ€”especially in times of crisis and uncertainty. As challenges continue to evolve, so does our dedication to serve the people with integrity, compassion, and accountability.

Together, let us continue to build a society where human rights are respected, protected, and fulfilled for all.

CHR Region VII extends its sincere appreciation to 93.1 FM Radio Cebu for the opportunity to be part of Serbisyong KaVibes with Langga Neda.

We are honored to have our Information Officer, Mr. Randy M. Pulvera, as guest, where he discussed the mandates and programs of the Commission on Human Rights of the Philippines. This platform allowed us to reach a wider audience and further promote awareness of human rights, governance, and the services we offer to the public.

Thank you for providing us with a valuable space to share our mission and engage with the community. We look forward to more collaborations in advancing and protecting human rights for all.

Karong Mayo 01, 2026, atong ginapasidunggan ang matag Pilipinong trabahante nga mao ang kusog sa atong ekonomiya. Gikan sa pabrika hangtod sa opisina, gikan sa uma ug kadagatan hangtod sa kalsada, padayon nilang gipalihok ang atong katilingban bisan pa sa nagkagrabeng mga hagit sa panginabuhi.

Sa taliwala sa pagsaka sa presyo sa krudo, gasolina, ug sa mga palaliton, mas nagkabug-at ang pas-anon sa mga trabahante, labi na kadtong minimum ang sweldo, adlaw-adlaw ang kita, ug anaa sa impormal nga sektor. Ang kasamtangang krisis adunay direktang epekto sa ilang abilidad sa pagtagbo sa ilang panginahanglan ug sa pagpuyo nga adunay dignidad.

Padayon ang panawagan sa Commission on Human Rights of the Philippines alang sa makatarunganon, luwas, ug tawhanong kondisyon sa pagpanarbaho.

Magkahiusa kita sa pagbarog alang sa katungod sa matag trabahante ug siguruhon nga walay mabiyaan taliwala sa nagkagrabeng mga hagit sa ekonomiya.

The Commission on Human Rights VII, together with partner organizations, successfully held a community-based dialogue titled โ€œStrengthening Voices: A Regional Consultation with Civil Society Organizations on Human Rights Issues and Concerns in Central Visayasโ€ at Alicia Apartelle, Cebu City on April 21, 2026.

The activity gathered several Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) across Cebu, providing a meaningful space to discuss their ongoing struggles and lived realitiesโ€”from civil and political rights to economic, social, and cultural concerns. Key sectors, including women, children, LGBTQIA+, PWDs, and the elderly, were also highlighted, alongside pressing cross-cutting issues such as environment, housing, and other emerging challenges.

Through open dialogue and collaboration, the participants were able to raise critical concerns, share insights, and strengthen collective efforts toward promoting and protecting human rights in the region.

The Commission on Human Rights Region VII conducted monitoring activities in the Municipality of Asturias, Cebu, reaffirming its commitment to uphold the right to health, especially for communities in Geographically Isolated and Disadvantaged Areas (GIDA).

This initiative focused on assessing access to primary health services under the Universal Health Care (UHC) Act, with the aim of ensuring that no one is left behind in the delivery of essential and life-saving services.

Furthermore, we extend our sincere gratitude to the Local Government Unit for their warm support and cooperation, especially to Hon. Dana Andrew M. Dumdum, Municipal Mayor, and Hon. Reine Yaras, Vice Mayor, along with the dedicated PWD staff, for their commitment to advancing inclusive, accessible, and rights-based public service.

May we continue to extend compassion, uphold dignity, and work hand in hand in ensuring that every community, no matter how remote, enjoys equitable access to health and the full realization of their human rights.
