As co-chair, the Philippines emphasised the need to contextualise skilling as uplifting human dignity and human rights, citing that for the Duterte Administration, skilling is more than increasing productivity or responding to labor needs. The Philippines’ participation at #GFMD13 is anchored on President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s commitment to protect and promote the rights and welfare of Overseas Filipino Workers. PRESIDENTIAL PHOTO
