COTABATO CITY – The Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, through its Regional Commission on Bangsamoro Women (RCBW-ARMM), officially started the celebration of this year’s National Women’s Month (NWM) through a parade, on Monday inside the ARMM compound here.

The parade, followed by a short program, was attended by officials and employees of the region’s different line agencies and offices. The ARMM celebration bears the theme "Meaningful change for Bangsamoro women can happen," which is anchored on the national theme: ‘We can make change work for women."

During the program, ARMM Executive Secretary Laisa Masuhud Alamia said, “Meaningful change: Bangsamoro women can make it happen,” rephrasing the theme. “Kapag hindi kikilos ang mga babae, walang meaningful change ang mangyayari,” she said, emphasizing the importance of women working in the government.

“More than 50% of the teachers, educators in the ARMM are women. Almost 3,000 of the employees of ARMM are also women," she said
