Gender Equality: A Challenge to Philippine Co-ops

This video looks at the role and importance of gender equality or GE in the development of co-ops in the Philippines; the challenges faced in advocating GE in the co-ops; and how women and men co-operators can benefit from and also do their role in GE-sensitive co-ops. The video is presented under the Project "Promoting Gender Equality Among Co-operatives in the Philippines," implemented by AWCF, with support from the Swedish Cooperative Centre (SCC). The Project is part of the "Advancing Civic Capacities for Effective and Sustainable Services to the Poor (ACCESS to the Poor)" Programme (2010-2012) in the Philippines, with funding from the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA).
