The City Government of Dapitan has officially commenced its participation in the nationwide observance of National Womenโ€™s Month, aligning with the multi-year theme, "WE for Gender Equality and Inclusive Society."

The announcement was made during the Monday flag-raising ceremony at the city government grounds by the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO), led by Ms. Marilyn S. Sy.

This yearโ€™s celebration emphasizes the collective responsibility of achieving gender equality, with "WE" representing both Women and Everyone. Drawing inspiration from the pre-colonial Babaylans, the campaign highlights women's leadership characterized by wisdom, empathy, and community guidance.

The celebration aims to amplify womenโ€™s leadership across all sectors, foster inclusivity by ensuring marginalized women have full access to opportunities and actively engage all citizens in dismantling gender-based discrimination.

The kick-off ceremony was marked by the oath-taking of 50 newly elected KALIPI Women Presidents, followed by the KALIPI Federation Officers, with the rites administered by Mayor Evelyn "Belen" T. Uy and Vice Mayor Gabriel M. Cad.
