The Department of Home Economics proudly congratulates Asst. Prof. Ma. Afrecita Nieva for successfully spearheading a celebration of International Women’s Month with the Female Law Enforcement Officers of the Philippine National Police of Makati. From March 26 to March 27, her celebration, Asst. Prof. Nieva arranged bazaars, pop-up shops, free haircut and make-up sessions, healing art sessions, and educational discussions that left a remarkable and empowering impact on a sector of women engaging in a male-dominated field.
Asst. Prof. Ma. Afrecita Nieva serves as the chairperson of the Makati PNP Station Advisory Group for Police Transformation and Develop (SAGPTD), and as part of her extension work, she offered to organize an event aimed to give the women of the Makati PNP a respite from the daily administrative and operations work. This is to improve morale and boost employee engagement, reduce stress, and inspire them to become better leaders.
