Davao City — The Commission successfully conducted the Mid-Year Assessment of the 2026 Gender and Development (GAD) Accomplishments at Acacia Hotel, Davao City, bringing together representatives from various Bangsamoro Ministries, Offices, and Agencies (BMOAs).

The two-day activity provided a platform to assess the implementation of the 2026 GAD Plans and Budgets, review first- and second-quarter GAD accomplishments, including relevant Women, Peace and Security (WPS) initiatives, and identify implementation gaps, challenges, good practices, and priority actions for the remaining months of the year.

Technical discussions strengthened the participants’ understanding of the parameters for reviewing GAD Plans and Budgets and GAD Accomplishment Reports, GAD budget charging, the Harmonized Gender and Development Guidelines (HGDG), and GAD monitoring and evaluation. The sessions emphasized the importance of anchoring GAD interventions on identified gender issues and mandates, supporting them with appropriate evidence, and translating them into measurable, gender-responsive results.

Participating BMOAs also presented their accomplishments and shared their respective implementation experiences, issues, challenges, and good practices. The discussions provided an opportunity for collective learning and helped identify practical ways forward, including accelerating the implementation of remaining GAD programs, activities, and projects, strengthening GFPS capacities, and improving documentation, monitoring, and inter-agency coordination.

The Commission continues to strengthen its partnership with BMOAs in advancing accountable, results-oriented, inclusive, and gender-responsive governance, ensuring that GAD plans and resources contribute to meaningful outcomes for women, girls, and communities across the Bangsamoro.

The profiling gathered baseline information on the organization’s status, membership, and existing livelihood activities to guide the planning and implementation of appropriate interventions.

The team likewise conducted a monitoring activity for the Pasague Marketing Women’s Cooperative, with the participation of 25 women members. The monitoring assessed the utilization and condition of the livelihood assistance previously provided by MAFAR, as well as its contribution to the cooperative’s operations and the members’ economic activities.

Among the assistance provided to the PMWC were fish drying racks, coolers, and BB nets, which support fish processing, post-harvest handling, and product preservation while enhancing the livelihood opportunities of women engaged in the fisheries sector.

The successful implementation of the activities was made possible through the support of the MAFAR Municipal Office (MMO) of Sibutu, headed by Mr. Bensaik Limandong, who facilitated the coordination and logistical arrangements throughout the conduct of the field activities in the municipality.

The activity concluded with the validation of organizational information and the assessment of livelihood interventions, providing MAFAR-GAD with updated field data that will serve as the basis for future Gender and Development initiatives and the continuous improvement of support for women’s organizations in Sibutu, Tawi-Tawi.

COTABATO CITY — The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Agrarian Reform (MAFAR) actively participated in the kick-off ceremony of the 2026 National Women’s Month on March 9, 2026, held at KCC Mall of Cotabato.

The activity was spearheaded by the Bangsamoro Women Commission (BWC) under the leadership of its Chairperson, Hadja Bainon Karon. The event gathered representatives from Bangsamoro ministries, offices, and agencies (BMOAs), local government units (LGUs), civil society organizations, women advocates, international partners, and development partners in a collective show of support for women’s empowerment and gender equality.

The ceremony formally launched the month-long observance anchored on the national theme “WE for Gender Equality and Inclusive Society,” with the sub-theme “Lead Like the Babaylans, Filipinas!”

The theme highlights the enduring leadership of women, drawing inspiration from the Babaylans—respected women leaders in pre-colonial communities who were known for guiding their people with wisdom, courage, and compassion.

In her message, Chairperson Karon emphasized the importance of recognizing the vital role women play in shaping societies and driving progress.

“Every year, the world comes together to recognize the invaluable contributions of women in shaping communities, nurturing peace, and advancing development,” she said.

She also reflected on the meaning behind this year’s campaign call. “When we say ‘Lead like the Babaylans, Filipinas,’ we are reminded of the strength of women who lead their communities with wisdom and compassion.”

The launch signals the beginning of various activities across the Bangsamoro region aimed at celebrating women’s achievements, strengthening gender equality, and encouraging inclusive participation in development.

This month, let us honor the strength, resilience, and leadership of every woman recognizing their enduring contributions to their families, communities, and the future of society.
