 LGBT Rights in the PH
while the State is diligently submitting glowing reports to international bodies
on the Philippines’ compliance with human rights standards, it is actively
covering up the persistence of human rights violations

Laws tend to closely adhere to a socially conservative agenda that mirrors

Vatican policy, which often disenfranchises already vulnerable sectors of the
population, including LGBT people.

While negligence characterizes national-level response to SOGIE-related

issues, some state agencies and local-level governments have implemented
policies aimed at formalizing protections for LGBT people. The Philippine
Commission for Human Rights (CHR), the nation’s independent human rights
institution, and its counterpart in the presidential palace, the Presidential
Human Rights Committee (PHRC), have undertaken a range of projects in
collaboration with LGBT CSOs with the aim of mainstreaming human rights
for LGBT people within the broader human rights agenda. Local anti-
discrimination ordinances are now in place in Quezon City, Cebu City and
Davao City, and will soon be enacted in Bacolod City.
