LAWS THAT PROTECT ONESELF AND OTHERS

KEY CONCEPT / INTRODUCTION

As human beings, we are all entitled to rights that no one can ever
take away. We all have innate rights from the moment we are born until
the day that we die, regardless of our gender, race, status or religion. These
rights ensure that we will enjoy a life of freedom and safety, wherever we
may be, together with other people who also have the same rights as ours.
While each of us has rights that protect us, we should keep in mind
that the people around us have rights, too, that must be respected.
However, there are circumstances wherein people’s lives, freedom and
safety are put in danger. It is for these cases that certain laws in our
country are written to defend victims of human rights abuse and enforce
penalty to offenders.
In this lesson, you will learn about the laws in the Philippines that
can protect you and others.

 Now that you have been familiarized with some of the laws that protect
our rights, it is necessary that you recognize their importance to yourself for
your safety and well-being.

It is a sad reality that, despite the many laws and agencies enforcing
such laws, there are still certain instances where your rights or those of others
may be violated. Social injustice is a major problem in many nations which
happens when certain rights of people are being overlooked or blatantly
disregarded. Being unaware of your own right is a danger on its own as you
may not know how to stop the abuse and prevent it from happening again.
Moreover, it is also our moral responsibility to look out for others who might
also not know their own rights.

Keep in mind that by being informed of these laws you are not only
ensuring your own safety. Moreover, you may be of help to the people around
you who might find themselves in dire situations.

ACTIVITY 2: THE PEN IS IN YOUR HAND

Directions: Using any of the patterns provided below, write an acrostic poem
expressing the importance of knowing laws that protect you and others. The
poem must be based on the statement “I AM PROTECTED”.

Process Questions:
1. After writing your poem, what realizations have come to your mind?
2. How does your knowledge on the laws that protect your rights make
you feel?
3. If you were a lawmaker, is there any law that you would write in
addition to the ones that we already have? Why?
4. At present, are there any situations in your life wherein you felt
secured and protected by the laws mentioned in this module?
5. Are there also any situations in the life of your friends or family where
they were secured and protected by these laws?

ENRICHMENT ACTIVITY

For every right we enjoy, there is an equal

responsibility that we must also uphold. Now
that you have been informed of your legal rights
and the legislations that protect them, it is now
your duty to inform others about them too.

Use your platform to share the message of

justice and equality for everyone. Share your sign
on social media and using a hashtag, encourage
others to join your cause!
