Western Mindanao State University (WMSU) officially launched its National Women\u2019s Month Celebration on March 2 during the university\u2019s flag raising ceremony held at the Dr. Juanito Bruno Gymnasium, gathering members of the academic community in a shared recognition of women\u2019s leadership, achievements, and contributions to society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opening program was spearheaded by the Gender Research and Resource Center (GRRC) in partnership with the College of Public Administration and Development Studies (CPADS). The event marked the beginning of a series of activities aimed at promoting gender equality, women empowerment, and inclusive development within the university community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A highlight of the program was an audio-video presentation prepared by CPADS, honoring the many accomplishments of University President Dr. Ma. Carla A. Ochotorena as a distinguished woman and leader. The presentation underscored her dedication to strengthening the university\u2019s programs and advancing initiatives that support inclusive leadership and institutional growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following this, Dr. Ochotorena delivered her message to the university community, emphasizing the importance of recognizing the vital role of women in shaping institutions and communities. She called on members of the WMSU community to continue supporting programs and initiatives that advance gender equality and provide opportunities for women to lead, innovate, and contribute meaningfully to national development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another highlight of the ceremony was the Pledge of Commitment, led by Asst. Prof. Nellibelle C. Ulama of the GRRC. The pledge reaffirmed the commitment of the WMSU community to uphold gender equality, respect, and inclusivity within the university and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the celebration continues throughout the month, the WMSU community is reminded that honoring women goes beyond recognition. It also involves sustaining initiatives that ensure equal opportunities, amplify women\u2019s voices, and foster a culture where leadership and excellence thrive regardless of gender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2026 National Women\u2019s Month Celebration continues under the 2023\u20132028 campaign theme, \u201c\ud835\udc16\ud835\udc04 \ud835\udc1f\ud835\udc28\ud835\udc2b \ud835\udc06\ud835\udc1e\ud835\udc27\ud835\udc1d\ud835\udc1e\ud835\udc2b \ud835\udc04\ud835\udc2a\ud835\udc2e\ud835\udc1a\ud835\udc25\ud835\udc22\ud835\udc2d\ud835\udc32 \ud835\udc1a\ud835\udc27\ud835\udc1d \ud835\udc08\ud835\udc27\ud835\udc1c\ud835\udc25\ud835\udc2e\ud835\udc2c\ud835\udc22\ud835\udc2f\ud835\udc1e \ud835\udc12\ud835\udc28\ud835\udc1c\ud835\udc22\ud835\udc1e\ud835\udc2d\ud835\udc32,\u201d which highlights shared responsibility, collective leadership, and inclusive participation.
