𝗚𝗔𝗗 𝗟𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝟱 | On 25 May 2026, the Gender and Development (GAD) Focal Point System of PFDA-ZFPC conducted a GAD Short Lecture on “Homophobia” as part of its continuing advocacy to promote gender sensitivity, equality, and inclusivity in the workplace.

The lecture was delivered by Ms. Gretchelle A. Araneta, ZFPC GAD TWG Member, who shared valuable insights on understanding homophobia, fostering respect for diversity, and promoting an inclusive and discrimination-free workplace environment for everyone.

The activity was participated in by a total of 34 personnel composed of 14 females and 20 males.

This initiative highlights PFDA-ZFPC’s commitment to strengthening awareness on GAD-related issues and encouraging a culture of respect, acceptance, and equality in the workplace and the community.

In celebration of Farmers and Fisherfolk Month, the PFDA-Zamboanga Fish Port Complex (ZFPC) recognizes the hardworking fisherfolk, laborers, traders, and port workers whose dedication keeps the fisheries industry moving and helps sustain communities every day.

At the heart of these daily efforts is the PFDA-ZFPC Fish Port and Landing Quay, where municipal bancas and commercial fishing vessels safely dock after long journeys at sea. More than a docking and unloading area, it serves as an important space where fish catches are handled, traded, and prepared for distribution to local markets and communities.

Behind every fish box unloaded and every catch delivered are individuals whose hard work supports livelihoods, food security, and economic activity in the region. Through organized port operations and accessible facilities, PFDA-ZFPC continues to support fisherfolk and fisheries stakeholders by helping improve fish handling, trading, and post-harvest activities.

This Farmers and Fisherfolk Month, we recognize the people behind every catch and reaffirm our commitment to strengthening the fisheries sector through reliable facilities and services for the Zamboanga fishing community.

Diversity makes our communities stronger, and inclusion makes our workplaces better.

In observance of the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT), the PFDA - Gender and Development Focal Point System joins the global community in promoting respect, inclusivity, and equal rights for all.

Let us continue to choose compassion over prejudice, acceptance over hate, and equality over discrimination. Together, we can create a society where diversity is celebrated and every person feels valued and empowered. 🌈✨

“Here at the PFDA-Zamboanga Fish Port Complex, we recognize with deep gratitude the invaluable contribution of our farmers and fisherfolk. Through their daily sacrifices at sea and in the fields, they ensure that every Filipino household is nourished and sustained.

This celebration is not only a tribute, but also a reminder of our shared responsibility to support, uplift, and empower our agricultural and fisheries sectors. May we continue to foster unity, resilience, and appreciation for those who tirelessly feed our nation.”
