Ms. Nathalie T. Igot, SVEP, CHED10 GAD Focal Person, and PCW NGRP Certified.

The training/workshop focused on the distinction between sex and gender; gender concepts, issues, and perspectives, including those during the COVID 19 pandemic; institutions that affect gender roles and socialization; the division of labor according to gender; manifestations of gender bias; and gender and power.

As expressed during the leveling of expectations that at the end of the training participants will be able to surface the expectation from the beginning and formulate ground rules for the workshop.

Sharing and displaying the members’ pertinent experiences was a fruitful exercise. Everyone was able to develop trust and sensitivity towards working harmoniously within the group, family, workplace and community.

Lastly, the participant was able to identify gaps in the implementation of gender and development initiatives on their individual campuses. Aside from these delightful social events, there were also contests for Mr. and Miss Head Turner of the Night, Best in Bohemian, Best in Yell, and Pinoy-Henyo Winners, where contestants competed for awards.
