Abstract

This study intends to localize international norms that are then accepted into local norms in order to assess the Philippines’ progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on gender equality. The research approach is qualitative, and the data gathering strategy makes use of literature review, particularly the idea of “norm localization” put forth by Amitav Acharya. The results of this study indicate that even in a patriarchal culture, the Philippines’ efforts to achieve the points and values of the SDGs are not a barrier to continuing to realize the goals. The Philippines’ efforts to apply gender equality are also inseparable from the contribution of local aspects, such as the contribution of the government, which is assisted by the local women's movement known as the Philippine Women's Commission (PCW) in managing gender relations. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (BPfA), the ASEAN Women's Committee, and the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) are just a few of the international standards that the Philippine government firmly supports.
