Army, CHR collaborate to advance mental health programs and a culture of safe spaces
The Philippine Army, through the Army Human Rights
Office (AHRO), strengthened its collaboration with the Commission on
Human Rights (CHR) to sustain and further improve the various mental
health program and culture of safe spaces in the military at the
Headquarters Philippine Army, Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City on July 13,
2023.
CHR Chairperson Atty. Richard P. Palpal-latoc was delighted to announce
that the Philippine Army is proactive in developing its advocacy and
protection of human rights through training, information dissemination,
and open dialogues with the Army officers and enlisted personnel
deployed on the ground and in the garrison.
Army Commanding General Lt. Gen. Romeo S. Brawner Jr.
highlighted the command’s creation of safe spaces in the Army, which
gave importance to respect, openness, and negotiation in the face of
personal and social differences among various individuals. Likewise, the
CHR also vowed to conduct regular meetings with AHRO and the Armed
Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Center for Law of Armed Conflict (CLOAC)
to resolve the issues and discuss related matters on human rights.
Lt. Gen. Brawner expressed his gratitude to the CHR and
AHRO for their collaborative efforts to build a safe and secure
environment for civilians and military personnel. The Army chief also
reiterated that the leadership would continue to work together with the
CHR to develop a more holistic and cohesive mental health program that
will protect the well-being and resilience of the Army soldiers in the
workplace, “The advancement of the mental health program will help the
soldiers to cope with their anxieties and work efficiently to be of
great service in their communities,” the Army chief said.
