Empowering Women, Building Inclusive Communities

The Pontevedra Women’s Association – Lakas ng Kababaihan (PWA-LNK) successfully held its Women’s Month Culmination Activity on April 1, 2026, at the Pontevedra Gymnasium. Anchored on the theme “WE for Gender Equality and Inclusive Society” with the sub-theme “Lead Like the Babaylans, Filipinasi,” the event celebrated the strength, leadership, and vital role of women in shaping a more inclusive and progressive community.

The highlight of the activity was the folk dance contest, where participants showcased their talents, creativity, and cultural pride through vibrant and meaningful performances. Each presentation reflected not only artistic expression but also the rich cultural heritage and unity of women in the community.

This meaningful celebration served as a reminder that when women are empowered, communities thrive. Indeed, the activity embodied the spirit of women leading with strength, wisdom, and unity—just like the Babaylans of the past—continuing to inspire generations of Filipinas today.💜
