President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. called for stronger global cooperation to promote women’s rights and remove barriers limiting opportunities for women and girls. He made the appeal during the 70th session of the Commission on the Status of Women at the United Nations headquarters in New York City. Marcos said that while progress has been made toward gender equality, many women worldwide still face discrimination, violence, and limited access to opportunities. He emphasized the need for governments, institutions, and international organizations to work together to address these ongoing challenges. The Philippines also reaffirmed its commitment to collaborate with other nations to empower women and promote gender equality.
