We are thrilled to officially launch the 3rd Zonta Club of Isabela (ZCI) Youth Empowerment Award in partnership with the Golden Z Club of Northeastern College!
The theme,"𝑯𝒆𝒓 𝑹𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕, 𝑶𝒖𝒓 𝑭𝒖𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆: 𝑨𝒅𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑪𝒍𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝑱𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒆 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑾𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑮𝒊𝒓𝒍𝒔" (English Category) and "𝑲𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒂𝒔𝒂𝒏—𝑲𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒑𝒂𝒕𝒂𝒏 𝒏𝒈 𝑲𝒂𝒃𝒂𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝒂𝒕 𝑲𝒂𝒃𝒂𝒕𝒂𝒂𝒏, 𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒂𝒏 𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑲𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒃𝒖𝒌𝒂𝒔𝒂𝒏" (Filipino Category), underscores that women and girls are disproportionately affected by climate disasters, experiencing increased vulnerability, safety risks, and workload burdens. As a global organization dedicated to gender equality, Zonta International believes that securing the rights and empowerment of women is fundamental to achieving effective climate justice. Our future depends on including women as leaders and agents of change in environmental action!
This year, we invite all enrolled students from Grades 7 to 12 in Public or Private Schools within the Province of Isabela to lend their creative voices to the global conversation on women's rights and the environment.
