Pidlaoan Apayao State College Malama, Conner, Apayao, Philippines e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Gender is an integral component of every aspect of the economic, social, daily and private lives of individuals and societies, and of the different roles as- cribed by society to men and women as emphasized by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations . The PWDs of Conner are aware of GAD and GAD related Laws. There were 8 respondents who claimed knowledge- able on GAD. These are the respondents who are well- informed about GAD. The respondents were mostly aware of RA 8972 , followed by RA 6725, RA 7877, and RA 9262. Further, the respondents were aware about PPAs related to environ- mental protection and sustainable development and disaster. In addition , they perform gender roles along social empowerment, reproductive roles, household managing roles, community and political roles. With regards to trainings, the findings showed that the top five training priorities identified by the respondents included WEDGE, GAD, Responsible parenthood and Reproductive health act, Anti Violence against women and their children and Human Rights. Organic Fer- tilizer Production was also of interests among the PWDs. They also have signified preparedness and knowledge on what to do in cases of disaster.
