As Cebu Governor Pamela Baricuatro marked her first 100 days in office last October 8, there was also the issuance of Executive Order (EO) No. 59, creating the Provincial Animal Welfare Council (PAWC) to institutionalize programs on animal welfare, rabies control, and marine life conservation in Cebu Province.

The order establishes the PAWC as the primary policy-making, coordinating, and monitoring body for all animal welfare and marine conservation initiatives across the province.

It aims to promote sustainable governance that benefits both humans and animals.

Baricuatro said the creation of the council reflects her administration’s long-term commitment to environmental protection and humane animal treatment.

Under EO No. 59, the PAWC will be chaired by the governor and vice-chaired by the provincial veterinarian, Dr. Mary Rose Vincoy.
