Abstract:
To fulfill such mandate, the National Council for Children’s Television (NCCT) drafted the Children’s Television Standards in 2013 that had gone through consultations with the Council’s Advisory Committee, members of the broadcast industry through the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas, and other stakeholders, specifically parents and educators. The 2013 draft defines children’s television programs in terms of depiction, presence, and/or absence of certain themes, language, nudity, sex, violence, horror, and drugs and substance abuse. The standards was planned to be launched at the same year. A test run of self-assessment by select networks was conducted, wherein they were to submit their quarterly programming report. But after consultations and evaluation of programs and projects, the Council shifted its focus on arming the Filipino audience on media education, specifically television literacy and smart TV parenting.
