The TPB Gender and Development (GAD) Focal Point System (GFPS) held its First Quarter Meeting for 2026 on March 30, chaired by Ms. Janet W. Canoy.

The meeting strengthened gender mainstreaming by approving a new Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Framework and developing GAD Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) materials. Key actions included committing to form the MAN-UP core group, establishing an internal awards system to boost the agency's GMEF score, and strengthening the Committee on Decorum and Investigation (CODI) Secretariat. The GFPS noted the 2026 GAD Plan and Budget (GPB) of a significant percentage of the total budget and set a refined utilization target of 90%.

The meeting concluded with the dissemination of the 2026 GAD Annual Program and Activities calendar and a call for continued commitment to uphold GAD mandates within the TPB.

The TPB remains committed to investing in its people, ensuring that every employee has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of gender.

Behind every great destination is a story of leadership.

As we bid farewell to March, weโ€™re celebrating the women at the helm of the Tourism Promotions Board. These leaders remind us that empowerment isn't just a themeโ€”itโ€™s the foundation of everything we do to showcase the beauty of the Philippines to the world.

To the women of TPB: Thank you for leading with passion and purpose.

Empowerment in motion. ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ๐Ÿ’œ

The Tourism Promotions Board was well-represented at the All Womenโ€™s Run Asia Year 4! This event serves as a beautiful reminder that when women move together, they create real change.

More than just a fitness event, this run supports a vital cause: providing aid to children who are survivors of domestic violence. TPB is a proud supporter of initiatives like this that go beyond the office walls to champion the safety, wellness, and recovery of women and children in our society.

Proud of our team for running with heart and purpose!

Beyond being a head covering, the hijab is a powerful symbol of faith, modesty, identity, and personal conviction.

This day encourages activities, discussions, and programs that highlight its cultural and spiritual significance, while addressing misconceptions and prejudice that some women face. The celebration also emphasizes the importance of womenโ€™s empowerment, showing how respecting diverse religious and cultural practices contributes to stronger, fairer, and more inclusive communities where every individual can freely express their beliefs with dignity.
