(VAC Ministerial) stands as a landmark event in the global effort to combat violence affecting children. Led by the government of the Philippines and organized in partnership with key entities such as WHO and UNICEF, this conference represents a crucial gathering of Ministers and high-level policymakers committed to child protection.
The organizers of the conference have committed to an inclusive approach that not only recognizes the wide spectrum of violence against children but also places a significant emphasis on incorporating the voices and leadership of survivors throughout the event's duration.
Brave Movement and Together For Girls (TfG) will be supporting a delegation to attend the VAC Ministerial in Manila, Philippines from 14th-20th November 2026. This will include members from the Global Survivor Council as well as other survivor leaders working with Brave Movement. The delegation will include survivors of various forms of violence, including sexual violence, trafficking and online bullying. The delegation will also include TfG and Brave Movement staff and consultants, some of whom are survivors themselves. The delegation will total a maximum of 21 people from a diverse range of backgrounds and geographies.
The Global Survivor Council Coordinator is responsible for the meaningful, safe, and well-resourced participation of survivor leaders in TfG and Brave's engagement with the 2026 VAC Ministerial Conference. This is a specialized role focused entirely on the survivor constituency: their recruitment into the Survivor Council/working group, their preparation, their voice within the conference process, their safety, and their experience throughout.

- Excellent interpersonal skills; demonstrated ability to build trust across cultures, languages, and lived experiences.
- Ability to hold space for difficult conversations and support people in distress, while maintaining professional boundaries.
- Experience with safeguarding frameworks and protocols is strongly preferred.
- Fluency in English required; Spanish, French, Filipino/Tagalog, or other languages an advantage.
