MANILA, Philippines — Over a hundred former officials and employees of the Philippine Commission on Women and over 150 human rights lawyers have joined the chorus of various sectors backing Vice President Leni Robredo’s presidential bid.

 

Former PCW officials and other womens’ rights advocates said in a statement that there is a need for an "extraordinary leader" like Robredo during these "extraordinary times" when the country has slipped in global rankings on gender equality and women are adversely impacted by the pandemic.

 

The PCW is the government policy-making and coordinating body on advancing the role of women in the country.
