How do we ensure that government programs and projects truly respond to the gender-differentiated needs of both women and men? The Harmonized Gender and Development Guidelines (HGDG) provides a structured, step-by-step approach to embedding gender perspectives at every stage of the project cycle, from project identification to design, all the way to implementation, management, monitoring and evaluation.

PCW invites you to Webinar 2 of the to explore the HGDG in depth—its key concepts, guiding principles, and practical application in crafting gender-responsive and empowerment-oriented programs and projects in government agencies and local government units.

Noong ika-19 na siglo, naging malawak ang partisipasyon ng kababaihan sa ekonomiya ng Maynila. Dumami ang mga babaeng nagmula sa probinsya na lumipat sa lungsod upang maghanapbuhay, at naging bahagi sila ng iba’t ibang sektor tulad ng serbisyo, kalakalan, edukasyon, at industriya. Ang kanilang kontribusyon ay kinilala hindi lamang sa loob ng bansa kundi maging ng mga dayuhang nagmasid sa buhay sa Maynila.

Sa kasalukuyan, patuloy na dinadala ng kababaihang Pilipino ang pamana ng mga nauna sa kanila. Mula sa iba’t ibang larangan—serbisyo, pamahalaan, negosyo, at industriya—nananatili silang mahalagang puwersa sa pag-unlad ng bansa.
