On top of the social and economic problems brought about by the pandemic, workers under Coca-Cola Philippines have been experiencing numerous violations of their rights and they have been subjected to exploitative working conditions. The Save Coke Workers campaign is one of the current efforts in the labor movement to address the problems that these workers are facing.

This March, as we celebrate the International Women’s Month, U.P. ALYANSA presents ABANTE BABAE: An Infographic Series on Women’s Struggles!

For far too long, women have been struggling against the oppressive and patriarchal system in our country. Prejudice against women has been manifested to this day through misogyny, gender norms, repression of their basic rights, violence against women, among others. As the pandemic struck our country, the injustices and discrimination against women were further aggravated.

In the next few days, we shall raise awareness on the various struggles that the community of women are facing for many years in the hopes of furthering our calls in ending these!

Sulong, kababaihan!

This March, we celebrate the International Women’s Month! The theme for this year’s celebration is “Women in Leadership: Achieving an Equal Future in a COVID-19 World.” We remember the impactful efforts and victories by women around the world especially in moving forward amidst this pandemic. And globally, while women have led countries out of the pandemic, in the Philippines, we must continuously assert that Filipina leaders can do the same.

For far too long, women have been struggling against the oppressive and patriarchal system in our country. Prejudice against women has been manifested to this day through misogyny, gender norms, repression of their basic rights, violence against women, among others. As the pandemic struck our country, the injustices and discrimination against women were further aggravated.

Women have continuously faced numerous challenges and struggles and with the pandemic, gender-based issues have only been exacerbated. Even before this health crisis, violence against women have affected 1 out of every 4 Filipinas, according to the Philippine Commission on Women. Cases of violence against women continue to arise during this crisis especially as women are forced to confront violence and abuse as a result of the prolonged lockdown.

As we celebrate Women's Month, we further the fight of women for equality as their rights are persistently being trampled upon today. UP ALYANSA stands in solidarity with every woman across the nation as they struggle against violence and oppression. And while we fight with them, we will continue to highlight and celebrate every victory that women have championed that changed our nation for the better. We commit to a future that empowers women and recognizes their key role in society. For half of the sky is held by women, we must ensure that they are consistently given spaces to lead and succeed.

Alongside our fight for social justice and social progress, we must forward policies that address the root causes of the issues faced by women such as the Safe Spaces Act which ensures a safe and inclusive society for everyone regardless of gender. We call on the administration to prioritize ending all forms of violence that women in our country face by enacting laws that shall safeguard their rights and welfare.

Misogyny and discrimination have no place in our society. Women belong in a world where they are valued and respected. For women deserve a world where they are free to lead and make a difference.

Sulong, kababaihan!

Last March 7, the AFP held a vicious crackdown which led to the executions of at least 9, union leaders, mass organizers, activists and human rights workers across southern Luzon. These brutal and inhumane crackdowns violate the right to due process and serve only to terrorize the public.

Akbayan! Youth Diliman strongly condemns the violent murders carried out by the AFP Last Sunday. Activism is not a crime. Time and time again, this administration has displayed total impunity in the violation of human rights, to farmers, activists, laborers and the like. Dissent is not a crime. We stand by the victims of these lawless executions and call for accountability from the Duterte Administration. We call for justice for the 9 who were murdered and the thousands more who have been harassed, arrested, abused and oppressed by this administration.

In this political climate, we must not remain silent and neutral in the face of injustice. As the youth, we are called to be involved in nation-building as responsible and critical members of Philippine society because we recognize that the power of the youth can create positive social transformation

As a democratic socialist youth and student formation, we work for the realization of good governance and transformative politics. We fight for equality, human rights, and social justice for all.

EARLIER: Akbayan Youth protested outside the Supreme Court to demand the Justices to declare the Terror Law unconstitutional. The culture of violence, emboldened by the Terror Act, has led to numerous rights violations as the oral hearings dragged on. In Cebu, Lumad students in the Bakwit school in USC were raided by law enforcement under the guise of a rescue operations.

The protest is led by the Movement Against Anti-Terror Act (MATA) composed of SENTRO, Akbayan Partylist, Tindig Pilipinas, Partido Manggagawa, and Alyansa Tigil Mina.
