🎉 ASMAE was delighted to take part in the Bastille Day reception hosted by the French Embassy in the Philippines! 🇫🇷🇵🇭

As part of France's National Day celebrations, the French Embassy invited us to host a booth, giving us a wonderful opportunity to introduce ASMAE and showcase our work in the Philippines to a wide audience.

Throughout the evening, we had the pleasure of meeting visitors and sharing more about our mission and the projects we carry out to support children and communities across the country.

To make the experience more engaging, we also organized an interactive quiz on children's rights and cyberbullying. It was a great way to raise awareness of these important issues while encouraging meaningful conversations in a fun and friendly atmosphere.

🙏 A heartfelt thank you to Embassy of France to the Philippines and Micronesia for their invitation and for giving us this opportunity to highlight ASMAE's commitment to protecting and promoting children's rights.

Karapatan ng bawat bata na lumaki kasama ang kanilang pamilya sa isang ligtas, mapagmahal, at mapag-arugang tahanan.

Hindi lahat ng pag-aampon ay legal. Sa ilang pagkakataon, ang mga sanggol ay nagiging biktima ng trafficking sa pamamagitan ng panlilinlang, pamimilit, o iligal na mga proseso ng pag-aampon na nagsasamantala sa mga mahihinang magulang at lumalabag sa karapatan ng mga bata.

Ang iligal na pag-aampon ay hindi isang gawa ng habag. Ito ay isang uri ng child trafficking kapag ang isang bata ay kinukuha, inililipat, o ipinagkakaloob sa pamamagitan ng mga labag sa batas na paraan para sa pagsasamantala o pagkakakitaan.

Maging mapanuri, magbahagi ng tamang impormasyon, at makiisa sa pagprotekta sa bawat bata laban sa trafficking. Sama-sama nating tiyakin na ang bawat pag-aampon ay legal, etikal, at laging nakabatay sa pinakamahusay na kapakanan ng bata.

Hindi ipinagbibili ang isang bata. Karapatan ng bawat bata ang proteksyon, pagkakakilanlan, at isang ligtas na kinabukasan.

Asmae Philippines extends its deepest sympathies to the people of Southern Mindanao and its neighboring regions following the June 8, 2026, earthquake. We stand in solidarity with all affected communities and reaffirm our commitment to upholding the best interests of every child affected, particulary children and young people whose safety, well-being, and futures must remain protected even in the hardest circumstances.

During the emergencies, children are among the most vulnerable. We call for their protection, well-being and psychosocial support to remain a priority in all response and recovery efforts.

We also recognize children and youth as important partners in response and recovery. Their voices and participation can help shape safer, inclusive, and more resilient communities.

We commend the swift response and collective efforts of the national government, local government units (LGUs), civil society organizations (CSOs), United Nations (UN), International Non-Government Organizations (INGOs), private sector partners, community leaders, and volunteers who have worked tirelessly to provide immediate assistance and support to affected communities. Their dedication and collaboration have been vital in ensuring timely relief and protection for children and families in the affected areas. We call on all actors to sustain this momentum and to ensure that the best interests of children remain the standard against which all decisions are measured.

Asmae Philippines stands with the children and communities of Mindanao, not only in this moment but through the sustained work of recovery that follows. We commit to ensuring that the rights, well-being, and futures of children remain at the center of every response.
