Angeles City celebrates women’s month

ANGELES CITY — Women, clad in purple, flocked the City Hall during its regular Monday flag raising rites in observance of the 2013 Women’s Month, with the theme “Kababaihan: Gabay sa Pagtahak ng Matuwid na Daan.”
Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan said the celebration is a nod to all women in playing a major role in nation building, particularly in the field of education and socioeconomic growth here in Angeles City.
“We were the first city in the country to institutionalize programs in relation to Gender and Development (GAD). Even now, GAD programs constitute an important part of my overall program of governance,” the mayor said.
Pamintuan vowed to strengthen the City Government’s thrust of upholding and protecting women’s rights as he promised to continue supporting women empowerment programs in the city.
Vice Mayor Vicky Vega-Cabigting lauded the administration and the GAD office for its steadfast annual observance of both the International Women’s Day and Women’s Month.
“This is an effort of the city administration to allow Angeles to become one of the most gender sensitive cities in the country. With it, we are also given the opportunity to build up our women’s sector in terms of their leadership and participation in the government’s decision making procedures,” Cabigting said.
Councilor Maricel Morales, committee chairperson on Women and Children’s Affairs, addressed the role of women in society, saying that strengthening them would pave the way for progress and development in the city.
“The family – the basic unit of society – will not be able to function well if its female members, especially the mothers – are not supported adequately by the community or society that surrounds them. Thus, there is a need for us to celebrate their efforts by providing them with several projects and activities that would cater to their needs – especially during our Women’s Month,” Morales said.
Purita David, City GAD officer, said several events and activities will be held in the month of March.
She noted that activities this month will be undertaken by the city departments/offices, national government agencies within the city, people’s and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) to showcase the promotion of women empowerment and gender equality.
Activities also include free osteoporosis screening in March 7 at the City Hall Taxpayer’s Lounge, a Women’s Assembly with an expected 1,000 participants in March 8 at Marquee Mall Event Center, a Breast Cancer Awareness Seminar in March 13 at the Angeles City Library and Information Center and free tubal ligation surgical procedures in March 16 at the Barangay Santo Cristo Rural Health Center.
On March 18, the city will hold a Hilot and Massage Wellness Demonstration, free pap smear at the Balibago Health Center in March 19, Gender Sensitivity Training and Women’s Beauty Day Treat in March 20 and 22 and a seminar on the prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV in March 25 – all to be conducted at the City Council.
Interested participants of the said events may contact the Gender and Development Office at 322-7230 local 260.
