DESCRIPTION
Meanwhile, the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action that was
approved in September 1995 at the Fourth World Conference on
Women, is a global pledge to attaining equality, development and
peace for women worldwide. It requires all governments to develop
policies and national plans of action to implement the Platform
locally. As part of the accomplishment of the Government of the
Philippines was the mandatory provision of at least 5% of the total
budget be allotted to the Gender and Development (GAD) initiatives.
DESCRIPTION
For the past years, the agency has conducted its first knowledge,
attitude and practices (KAPs) survey among all its employees
nationwide. The results were the bases for the continuing effort of
GAD mainstreaming initiatives within the agency through the
development of advocacy materials, projects, activities and
programs that are gender-sensitive.
Likewise, CPD has produced its draft of the tool kit to mainstream
GAD concerns in the PPMP, particularly for Gender Responsive
Population Strategies or “GR PopS.” Series of content validation
activities were conducted in four areas: Luzon-CAR and Baler,
Aurora; Visayas-Cebu; and Mindanao-Cagayan de Oro. The tool kit
will serve as the standardized reference for the agency’s trainers to
advocate GAD within the context of the PPDP.
