Info caravan on Magna Carta of Women slated on March 8

IN celebration of International Women’s Day tomorrow, March 8, an information caravan will be held to raise awareness on the Magna Carta of Women.

On March 1, 1988, Presidential Proclamation no. 224 declared the first week of March as Women’s Week and March 8 as Women’s Rights and International Peace Day.

Activities lined up for the celebration, themed “Women Weathering Climate Change: Governance and Accountability, Everyone’s Responsibility,” include wellness services at the Plaza Sugbu for women from barangays.

ThreeSixty Pharmacy will bring in medical services, such as anemia test, kidney stone, cholesterol and bone density tests and sampling of selected products for women.

This project is an initiative of the Cebu City government, through the Cebu City Women’s and Family Affairs Commission.
