O que funciona em Filipinas

The Philippines has implemented several large-scale programmes targeting digital access and gender equity. The Free Wi-Fi for All programme has deployed 25,000+ free public Wi-Fi sites nationwide, including 900 dedicated access points in isolated and disadvantaged areas. On gender and economic empowerment, the Magna Carta of Women mandated ≥5% gender budgeting across all government agencies, resulting in PHP 807.64 billion (23% of the 2023 national budget) tagged for Gender and Development, while the GREAT Women Project assisted over 14,000 women micro-entrepreneurs across two phases, with Phase 2 showing 58.5% achieving sales increases of 30% or more. Most recently, DepEd's ARAL programme is deploying AI reading-fluency tools across public schools, with early pilots reducing at-risk readers to zero and cutting assessment time from 2 days to 2 hours for 14,000+ learners.
