The MWSS Regulatory Office (RO), through its Gender and Development Focal Point System (GFPS), held the “GAD Kapihan: Recognizing and Strengthening Partnerships through Renewed Commitment towards Achievement of Gender Mainstreaming in the Water Sector” on 21 December 2023.
This year’s “GAD Kapihan” had three major thrusts: recognize gender mainstreaming partners throughout the years; celebrate the conferment of the GADtimpala Awards to the MWSS RO; and commit to the international community.
The celebration was attended by previous members of the GFPS, representatives from the two water Concessionaires, and partner organizations such as the National Housing Authority (NHA), Office of the Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC), University of the Philippines Center for Women and Gender Studies (UP CWGS), and Commission on Audit (COA).
The MWSS RO stays committed to working together with its partners in promoting gender equality and women empowerment within the agency and the water sector.
