Tacloban joins National Women’s Month celebration

TACLOBAN CITY, March 2 (PNA) – A women’s march participated by city hall employees kicked off the month-long National Women’s Month celebration of the city government here on Thursday.

The event spearheaded by the Government Association of Tacloban Employees (GATE) started 5:30 a.m. at the city hall grounds and proceeded to the Astrodome.

“We Make Change for Women,” is this year’s theme, which underscores the active participation of women in the country’s economic, socio-cultural and political developments.

The celebration this year will center on the full implementation of the Magna Carta of Women, also known as Republic Act 9710 by making known programs and services that strategically address the needs of women.

Mayor Cristina Gonzales-Romualdez will lead city government offices in the following activities related to the celebration this March: Women’s Fair at the City Engineer’s Gym (March 8) organized by the Local Council of Women; Job Fair (March 22); Women’s Forum at the North (March 17); two-day Women’s Summit (March 21 to 22); Women’s Shelter Anniversary (March 23), DMCC Cares for Women’s Congress (March 29); and as culmination activity — the City Government Women Employee’s Day (March 31).

Romualdez is a staunch supporter of women’s rights that under her watch, the city local council of women was organized whose task is to help institutionalize city government projects for the welfare of women.

She also initiated the putting up of a Women’s Shelter in the City — the first facility in Eastern Visayas managed by a local government, which offers psychosocial support and shelter for abused women and their children. (PNA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
