Tinig ng Kababaihan (TNK) isa weekly radio program that serves as a platform for tackling women’s rights and empowerment, and for increasing public awareness on gender and development (GAD) efforts by the Philippine government, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), civil society organizations (CSOs), and private sector advocates.
First aired on 15 May 2009, TNK continues to be a source of information and inspiration to this day. It features various GAD-related programs, projects, and services; shares inspiring stories and lived experiences of Filipino women; and champions the full implementation of the Magna Carta of Women (Republic Act No. 9710).
The airing of TNK is made possible through the partnership between the Philippine Commission on Women (PCW) and the Presidential Broadcast Service-Bureau of Broadcast Services (PBS-BBS), underscoring the shared commitment to bringing conversations on gender equality and women’s empowerment into mainstream media.
After a temporary hiatus during the COVID-19 pandemic, TNK resumed airing in January 2023 and was broadcast every Friday from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM on Radyo Pilipinas 1 (738 kHz AM) and its affiliate provincial stations nationwide. In January 2025, TNK went off the air once again but successfully resumed in February on its new home — Radyo Magasin (1278 kHz AM) — airing every Friday from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM and live-streamed through the official Facebook pages of PCW and Radyo Magasin.
The program is also replayed every Saturday from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM on Radyo Pilipinas Radyo Publiko (738 kHz AM), simultaneously aired through its provincial stations, live-streamed via its official Facebook page, and simulcast on digital TV through Channel 3 (TVPlus) and Channels 45-49 (Affordabox).
