Today, we honor the strength, resilience, and dedication of every Filipino worker—the driving force behind our communities and our nation’s progress.

As we celebrate, the Gender and Development Office of Caraga State University reaffirms its commitment to fostering workplaces that are safe, inclusive, and empowering for all. We envision environments where every individual—regardless of gender, ethnicity, religion, or ability—is respected, valued, and given equal opportunity to thrive, including persons with disabilities.

Let this day remind us that true progress is built not only on hard work, but on fairness, dignity, and zero tolerance for violence—especially against women.

Together, let’s continue to build spaces where everyone belongs. ✊💜

While government agencies implement energy conservation measures, essential services for women and girls must proceed without interruption, the Philippine Commission on Women (PCW) advises government entities.
In Advisory No. 2026-001, the PCW outlined critical Gender and Development (GAD) programs that must be protected from reduction or deprioritization during the energy crisis. Agencies must maintain the continuous operation of life-saving interventions, including Violence Against Women (VAW) desk operations, case management, legal and psychosocial support, and maternal and reproductive health services. The PCW warns that disrupting these mandated services could expose victims to further harm and result in adverse health outcomes.

As the government rolls out policies to address the national energy crisis, the Philippine Commission on Women (PCW) asserts that gender concerns are not optional and must not be sidelined during emergencies.

Through Advisory No. 2026-001, the PCW invokes the Magna Carta of Women, which mandates the State to ensure the protection, security, and adequate resource allocation for women during crisis situations. The Commission emphasizes that crisis responses, including austerity measures and fund releases, must integrate a gender lens.

The PCW advises policymakers and technical staff to ensure that energy relief and welfare programs specifically prioritize highly vulnerable groups, including women-headed households, elderly women, solo mothers, widows, and women with disabilities. Emergency policies must also recognize households of persons with diverse SOGIESC, ensuring equitable access to relief and recovery programs for all family types, including chosen families. Furthermore, if government office hours are reduced for energy conservation, the PCW strongly recommends implementing care-responsive scheduling, such as flexible work arrangements for employees with caregiving responsibilities.
