Sara calls for more opportunities for women

(UPDATE) ON International Women's Day (IWD), Vice President Sara Duterte urged stakeholders to 'stand together' for inclusive development and social transformation not just for women, but for children, youth and other marginalized groups.

In her speech at the celebration of IWD in Taguig City on Wednesday, Duterte said that if women are given the chance to become productive and allow themselves to be given the power to study, they can change the face of their communities.
