Santa Rosa City Planning and Development Coordinator Office

United Nations Office at Geneva | Standing up for women globally

Before 2025 (October 2025) ended, I had a wonderful, inspiring experience when I represented the City of Santa Rosa ( and the Philippines ) at the UN Forum of Mayors in Geneva, Switzerland in the following capacities/roles:

- One of the resource speakers at the Woman and Mayor : Empowering Urban Leadership for Sustainable Futures side event with other Women City Mayors from other countries
- Co-moderating in the UN plenary session on Climate Finance Mechanisms, and participating in other sessions on SDGs, etc.
- Most especially, a signatory on the resolution and declaration crafted during the Woman and Mayor session: Women Mayors' Declaration for Safe & Inclusive Governance

Truly, this is worth sharing especially today, March 8.

Happy International Women's Day! 💜 I will always stand up for everyone!

❤️💚 💜 💞 ❤️ 🦁
