Screenings of Chocolates and Roses as part of the 16 Days of
Today 25 November, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, starts the The United Nations' international campaign, 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence. In this occasion, the Philippines Embassy in Washington D.C. has requested to screen the recently released research-documentary Chocolates and Roses: Breaking the silence about domestic violence in the Philippines. During this period, the film is also being screened at students in Slovenia and United Kingdom but, given the urgency of putting pressure for the passing of the divorce law in the country, we need support for the film, which represents the key research findings, to be screened and used as widely as possible!

Shocked to find out that, as the @_Government_UK is (further) reducing its Official Development Assistance to 0.3% of GNI by 2027, @NIHRresearch is no longer awarding us the large grant that was going to support youth #suicideprevention in Indonesia and Pakistan. What a waste :(

Perhaps the most depressing part about the last couple of months is that every awful shitty thing that’s happening to this country is self-induced. People asked for this. None of it had to happen.
