This document summarizes the salient features, issues, and concerns regarding the implementation of Republic Act 9262 or the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act of 2004 in the Philippines. Key provisions of the law include barangay, temporary, and permanent protection orders; classifying violence against women as a public crime; and providing additional leave and support services to victims. However, challenges remain in enforcing the law, including some judges who believe the law is unfair to men or unconstitutional, and a view that the law destroys family unity. Solutions proposed include specializing courts to handle violence against women cases and increasing public awareness and education on women's rights.
