The Department of Education issued a gender-responsive basic education that expressly prohibit bullying of LGBT youth—the first law of its kind in Philippines. The LGBT students in the Philippines face serious problems that threaten their safety, health and right to education. In its new policy, the DepEd acknowledges that LGBT youth are still at high risk for physical, psychological and sexual violence in schools, and that despite existing legal protections, many LGBT students do not feel comfortable reporting incidents to school authorities.
