Budget Proposal

Title: Orientation on RA 9710

Rationale
The Magna Carta of Women is comprehensive women’s human rights law that seeks to
eliminate discrimination against women by recognizing, protecting, fulfilling and
promoting the rights of Filipino women, especially those in marginalized sector.

The Magna Carta of Women defines discrimination against women as:

• any gender-based distinction, exclusion, or restriction which has the effect
or purpose of impairing or nullifying the recognition, enjoyment, or exercise by
women, irrespective of their marital status, on a basis of equality of men and
women, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic,
social, cultural, civil or any other field;
• any act or omission, including by law, policy, administrative measure, or
practice, that directly or indirectly excludes or restricts women in the
recognition and promotion of their rights and their access to and enjoyment of
opportunities, benefits, or privileges;
• a measure or practice of general application that fails to provide for
mechanisms to offset or address sex or gender-based disadvantages or
limitations of women, as a result of which women are denied or restricted in
the recognition and protection of their rights and in their access to and
enjoyment of opportunities, benefits, or privileges; or women, more than men
are shown to have suffered the greater adverse effects of those measures or
practices; and
• discrimination compounded by or intersecting with other grounds, status, or
condition, such as ethnicity, age, poverty, or religion.

The Magna Carta of Women (Republic Act No. 9710) defines Gender and Development Program
(GAD) as the development perspective and process that is participatory and empowering,
equitable, sustainable, free from violence, respectful of human rights, supportive of self-
determination and actualization of human potentials. It seeks to achieve gender equality as a
fundamental value that should be reflected in development choices and contends that women are
active agents of development, not just passive recipients of development.
GAD focuses on Gender Mainstreaming or a strategy for:
 making women’s as well as men’s concerns and experiences an integral dimension of the
design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of policies, programs and projects in all
social, political, civil, and economic spheres so that women and men benefit equally.
 assessing the implications for women and men of any planned action, including legislation,
policies or programs in all areas and at all levels
