I want to share my reflection on the Claim Your Space Session this April 18, 2026.

The session about Republic Act No. 11313 or the Safe Spaces Act, and the discussion on SOGIESC Awareness, was truly eye-opening. I learned that respect and safety are rights that every person deserves, regardless of whether they are a man, woman, or belong to the LGBTQ+ community.

Understanding the law made me realize that simple acts like catcalling or unwanted comments are not just jokes—they are violations and can cause harm. More importantly, learning about SOGIESC taught me that every individual is unique, and we should never judge or discriminate based on someone’s identity or expression.

This session reminded me that creating a safe space starts with me. I will carry these lessons with me to become more sensitive, respectful, and an ally to everyone around me.

Thank you KAWSA for having us po!
