Social Development Week Cebu March 7, 2006

The theme ?At? ni Day! At? ni Bay!? succinctly captures the region?s pride and place in history and in nation building. It is a paean to community solidarity expressed through a wide array of local products and services. It highlights the tolerance and equality that are the hallmarks of its culture and heritage. Against the backdrop of the International Women?s Day Celebration, the Social Development Week starting March 8, is a reminder of the important role and contributions women play in development.
