Research? Research. Yes, about research…
A while ago, I conducted a research mainly a survey and an interview to local stores
selling different kinds of alcohol throughout the whole community (the community of Camella
Homes Phase 2F, that is). For certain individuals, I decided to opt out of interviewing them out
of respect for their own privacy. During the interview, I decided to ask the store owners in order
to determine which alcoholic beverage is the most common in the stores and also to determine
the profiles of their consumers for they are familiar with them.
Unanimously, beer was the most sold alcoholic beverage in each store I went, but there
were only two stores which not only sold beer, but gin and brandy as well. As you can see in this
graph, majority of the store owners do sell beer while gin and brandy is an option to the two
stores that I have went.
Sari-sari stores were the most common sellers of alcoholic beverages here at Phase 2F,
Camella Homes, Bacoor, Cavite. Grahambell St., Einstein St., and Newton St. were the
addresses I went to, in order to make this survey and interview possible. No graph is presented,
unfortunately, because the store managers wanted some privacy. There is one sari-sari store in
Einstein St., two sari-sari stores for both Newton St. and Grahambell St. at Phase 2F Camella
Homes, Bacoor, Cavite.
The vast majority of the customers were male and one of the store owners have said that
females were also buying alcoholic beverages from them. The frequent customers that are buying
alcoholic beverages from the stores are mostly adults ranging from 30 years old up until to 60
years old and above. The majority of their occupations were employees, though one store owner
identified that some consumers’ occupation was not listed in the options given in the survey and
I did not ask about it furthermore that due to privacy concerns when I interviewed the owner.
Unanimously, most of them are married, with others being single, and some customers being
widowed. It was also unanimous that the customers were Filipino, and not from other countries
such as American citizens or Chinese citizens. Here are the graphs of the customer profiles, for
example. As you can see in the graph about the responses of the local sari-sari store owners
about their consumers.
During this interview, I have learned about which alcoholic beverages are the ones
commonly sold in my community. I gained more insights about the places that are selling
alcoholic beverages and the people who are buying alcoholic beverages here in my community.
This research has made a significant impact in my life and raised my awareness about alcoholic
beverages.
WHO’S GLOBAL STRATEGY FOR WOMEN AND
CHILDREN’S HEALTH 2016-2030
The ambition of the Global Strategy for Women’s, Children’s and Adolescents’ Health is
to end preventable deaths among all women, children and adolescents, to greatly improve their
health and well-being and to bring about the transformative change needed to shape a more
prosperous and sustainable future. This updated Global Strategy was developed by a wide range
of national, regional and global stakeholders under the umbrella of the Every Woman Every
Child movement, with strong engagement from WHO and builds upon the 2010-2015 Global
Strategy for Women’s and Children’s Health.
Launched by the UN Secretary-General on 26 September in New York, this updated
Global Strategy, spanning the 15 years of the SDGs, provides guidance to accelerate momentum
for women’s, children’s and adolescents’ health. It should achieve nothing less than a
transformation in health and sustainable development by 2030 for all women, children and
adolescents, everywhere.
DOH’S WOMEN AND CHILDREN PROTECTION
PROGRAM
In 1997, Administrative Order 1-B or the “Establishment of a Women and Children
Protection Unit in All Department of Health (DOH) Hospitals” was promulgated in response to
the increasing number of women and children who consult due to violence, rape, incest, and
other related cases.
Since A.O. 1-B was issued, the partnership among the Department of Health (DOH),
University of the Philippines Manila, the Child Protection Network Foundation, several local
government units, development partners and other agencies resulted in the establishment of
women and child protection units (WCPUs) in DOH-retained and Local Government Unit
(LGU) -supported hospitals. As of 2011, there are 38 working WCPUs in 25 provinces of the
country. For the past years, there have been attempts to increase the number of WCPUs
especially in DOH-retained hospitals, but they have been unsuccessful for many reasons.
As of 2016, a total of 94 WCPUs were established nationwide that served about 8,000
cases in the past year.
“The DOH shall provide medical assistance to victims” through a socialized scheme by
the Women and Children Protection Unit (WCPU) in DOH-retained hospitals or in coordination
with LGUs or other government health facilities (RA 9262: Anti-Violence Against Women And
Their Children Act of 2004)
The Department shall refer the child who is placed under protective custody to a
government medical or health officer for a physical/ mental examination and/or medical
treatment (RA 7610: Special Protection of Children Against Child Abuse, Exploitation and
Discrimination Act)
Republic Act No. 10354 (The Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of
2012) highlights the elimination of violence against women and children and other forms of
sexual and gender-based violence.
