Enhancing Demand for Civil Registration through People-Centered Campaigns in the Philippines
TAGS

The challenge the Philippines is facing in terms of civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) include the current law that hampers affordable procedures and timely processes. To overcome the challenges and improve the system, the Global Health Advocacy Incubator (GHAI) and the Philippines Legislative Committee on Population and Development (PLCPD), with funding from Bloomberg Philanthropies, have rolled out media and outdoor campaign to support an Omnibus CRVS Bill for a universal, more inclusive and accessible civil registration system. The proposed Bill will make ways for improved accuracy, universality, and inclusivity.  

The campaign, dubbed “Get Everyone in the Picture”, sends out a unified message of “universal birth registration for all,” and the messages also encompass all vital events that are essential to ensure the rights of the people and the informed public planning and policies.
