Gender equality is one of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) that is not on track globally. Furthermore, improving women's representation in Parliament and other spheres of leadership has been essential to gender equality. However, despite women being seen as effective leaders in various sectors of society, including Filipino families and communities, more commitment and bold efforts are needed towards gender-equal leadership, especially in the political arena. To achieve these, the Philippine government has been working consistently to improve gender equality and is further committed to promoting women’s representation and political inclusiveness.
