Strength in Solidarity: Gabriela BC and International Assemblies
Speaker: Rousbel Rabanal, KPU Student
Online Presentation via MS Teams

This presentation explores the establishment and growth of the Gabriela Philippines chapter in B.C., highlighting its role in advocating for the rights and welfare of Filipino women in the diaspora. We will also provide an overview of the recent international assemblies held in Malaysia, where organizations from around the world convened to discuss strategies for solidarity and collective action.

We will delve into the key outcomes of these assemblies, focusing on the shared commitment to advancing women's rights, combating gender-based violence, and promoting social justice across borders.
