IWD 2021

International Women’s Day, acknowledged on March 8 every year, is a day of activism, struggle and the continuation of the global movement to end sexist oppression. Today’s show is a dedication to all women globally, struggling for freedom, equality and peace. On today’s show, we turn our attention to Filipina women and their specific show. My guest today is Nes Govanzo, an organiser in Gabriela, a grassroots-based alliance of more than 200 organizations, institutions and programs based in communities, workplaces and schools throughout all regions and major provinces and cities in the Philippines. It also has chapters in eight countries outside of the Philippines.
