Cebu City Women and Family Affairs Commission established July 2025

Happy Birthday, Honorable Mayor!

On behalf of the Cebu City Women and Family Affairs Commission, we extend our warmest birthday greetings to you on this special day.

We are deeply grateful for your steadfast leadership, genuine concern for the welfare of our constituents, and unwavering support for programs that promote gender equality, women's empowerment, and inclusive community development. Your hands-on approach to governance and dedication to public service continue to inspire us and make a lasting impact on the lives of the people you serve.

As you celebrate another year of life, may you be blessed with good health, happiness, wisdom, and renewed strength to continue leading our city toward greater progress and prosperity. May your commitment to compassionate and responsive leadership remain a guiding light for all.

Happy Birthday, Mayor! May you continue to be blessed with many more fruitful years of leadership and service.

In support of the strong advocacy of Mayor Nestor D. Archival for a safer, cleaner, and healthier Cebu City, the Cebu City Women and Family Affairs Commission encouraged all barangays to participate in the Simultaneous Clean-Up Drive, with the GAD Federation and VAWC Desk Officers mobilizing and gathering the different sectors in their respective communities.

This activity promotes environmental sanitation, proper waste management, flood prevention, and community cooperation in building a better and more sustainable community for every Cebuano.

We sincerely thank all volunteers, barangay officials, women sector, ERPAT members, youth sectors, and community partners for their active support and participation in making this activity successful. Together, we continue working towards a cleaner and safer Cebu City.

Finally, we have successfully concluded the GeRL Assessment Tool Capacity Development Training!

Over the past four days, we had the priviledge of capacitating all 80 barangays of Cebu City through four batches of dedicated Barangay GAD Focals and Local Chief Executives. This milestone reflects our inclusive, and people-centered communities.

We look forward to seeing all 80 barangays apply the knowledge, skills, and best practices gained from this training in strengthening local governance and ensuring that programs, projects, and services are responsive to the needs of every sector. Through your dedication, active participation, and continued advocacy for gender equality and women empowerment, we are one step closer to creating safer, fairer, and more equitable communities for all.

Our heartfelt gratitude to all participants, partner offices, and facilitators whose support and commitment made this activity a success. Special thanks to the resource speakers, facilitators and the technical working group for sharing their expertise, patience, and passion throughout the four-day training journey.

Together, let us continue championing gender-responsive governance and meaningful public service.

As of today, April 19, 2026, our air quality has reached “Very Unhealthy” levels (AQI 199). The ongoing haze is caused by stagnant air, heat, and pollutants gikan sa sakyanan ug ubang sources. This is now a risk for everyone, especially children, seniors, ug katong naay sakit sa baga.

Ang Cebu City Government is closely monitoring the situation and coordinating with concerned agencies to keep everyone informed and protected.

Palihug ko ninyo: stay indoors if possible, avoid outdoor activities, ug kung mogawas, magsul-ob gyud ug N95 or KN95 mask.

Magtinabangay ta ug mag-amping. Taking care and taking action para sa Cebu City. Stay safe, Cebu City.

Closet-to-Cash: Turning Everyday Items into Opportunities
