March of every year is declared as National Women’s Month.
Anchored on this year’s theme “We Make Change Work for Women Juana Laban sa Pandemya:Kaya!,” the celebration aims to highlight the empowerment of women as active contributors to and claimholders of development.
As part of the celebration, advocates of women's rights are encouraged to sport purple clothes or accessories.
In connection, the Mabulitec Integrated School headed by Dr. Christine M. Paglingayen supported the said campaign by wearing purple clothes on March 29, 2021. By doing so, MIS teaching and non-teaching staff signifies its strong support and respond to the call to action that highlights the extraordinary roles of ordinary Juanas in the society as trailblazers and harbingers of change.
This celebration is a call for concrete, sustainable, and inclusive actions towards gender equality.
Furthermore, it is the time to delve deep into the gender issues that emerged or become more felt during the health crisis, feature women who thrived despite the circumstances and share support systems and government programs that address women’s issues and concerns.
