MAYOR Belen Fernandez was named Most Inspiring Woman of the Earth in 2024 by India-based global foundation World Against Corruption (WAC) People Council and WAC Book of World Records International.

The award was received by Fernandez during the flag-raising ceremony program last Monday at the city plaza, handed to her by Dr. Edwin Ferrer, public schools supervisor l, who earlier received the award on her behalf last October 26 during a program of the group at the Federation Center in Binondo, Manila.

The WAC People Council is a non-profit organization that promotes equal opportunities, particularly programs on education for disadvantaged children and sustainable livelihood for women.

Ferrer, Alternative Learning System focal person in Dagupan, said the award is testament to the mayor becoming an inspiration not just locally.

This is definitely a recognition of the work of Mayor Fernandez, particularly in her UnliSerbisyo program, which benefited the people of Dagupan, especially the poor, and has now become a model throughout the world, Ferrer said.

Fernandez said she never expected that the work that she is doing, and her sincerity and passion to serve would get recognition “in other parts of the world, like in India.” (Leonardo Micua)
