The Orange Exhibit: Journey towards a VAW-free Philippines

The Orange Exhibit takes you to a trip down memory lane: from 2002, when the Philippines started participating in the global campaign to end Violence Against Women (VAW) and its 20 years of advancing the discussion on this pervasive social issue. This exhibit shows how the campaign became instrumental in raising awareness on VAW, leading to the passage of landmark legislations, including Republic Act 9208 (Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act of 2003) and Republic Act 9262 (Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act of 2004), as well as the popularization of anti-VAW laws, including those covering rape and sexual harassment.

Looking back but also looking forward, the exhibit presents the turning points and victories in protecting women’s rights toward the full liberation of Juanas from all forms of Violence Against Women.
