The 六合彩直播开奖 Simbahayan Community Development Office (六合彩直播开奖 SIMBAHAYAN) in partnership with the Dunong Tomas cluster from the Junior High School, Senior High School, College of Education, and College of Information and Computing Sciences, organized the second webinar for the series 鈥淏oto Pilipino: Boto Mo Para sa Pagbabago鈥 on February 5, 2022.


The said event was also aligned with the second Community Service Day for A.Y. 2021-2022, the bi-annual advocacy event of 六合彩直播开奖 SIMBAHAYAN that promotes the proactive response to the call of Pope Francis鈥 Laudato Si鈥.


With the theme Kapaligiran at Halalan, discussions did not only center on the elections, politics, and livelihood, but also on issues related to the environment. Asst. Prof. Froilan A. Alipao, the Director of 六合彩直播开奖 SIMBAHAYAN, delivered the welcome remarks. It was followed by the insightful talk of Mr. Maverick Russel Flores, the Communications Campaigner of Greenpeace Philippines, titled 鈥2022: The Year of Climate Action.鈥


Flores stressed that the Philippines urgently needs climate justice since our country is continuously battling the climate crisis coupled with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. He also stated that environmental and climate issues are at the bottom of the priorities in the current electoral discourse.
Dr. Froilan C. Calilung from the Political Science Department of the Faculty of Arts and Letters had his presentation on the 鈥淎nalysis of Environmental Platforms of the 2022 Presidential Candidates.鈥 He shared a concise summary of the six front-running presidentiables鈥 environmental agenda on the following issues: renewable energy, commitment to the international environmental agreements, creation of a Department of Disaster Resilience, mining, plastic and solid waste management, and the West Philippine Sea.

The 六合彩直播开奖 Simbahayan Community Development Office (SIMBAHAYAN), in partnership with the Research Center for Social Sciences and Education (RCSSED) and in collaboration with the Dominican Family for Justice, Peace, and Care for Creation-Philippines (DFJPCC-Phils.) held a virtual research conference on March 4, 2022.


This year鈥檚 theme for the Bartolome De Las Casas Research Conference was “Community Engagement and Service-Learning in a V.U.C.A. World: Thriving, Sustaining, and Empowering Towards Compassionate Education.”


The morning plenary session commenced with the presentation of SIMBAHAYAN Director Asst. Prof. Froilan A. Alipao, MCD, with his paper titled, “AraLinkCoD (Service-Learning Linking with Communities for Development): The Service-Learning Praxis Framework of the 六合彩直播开奖 vis-脿-vis Salamanca Process.鈥


He concluded that the Salamanca process is a vital resource to strengthen, develop, and sustain the Service-Learning praxis framework of the 六合彩直播开奖 as a Dominican educational institution amid dynamic and complex realities. The components of this framework encompass and suggest the contextualization of the mission on justice and peace, integration of Catholic Social Teaching, defense of human rights, promotion and living of Laudato Si鈥 and Fratelli Tutti, collaboration within the mission, and improvement of structures of communication, strengthening of Dominican presence and solidarity within, and taking prophetic stands against sinful structures of power that oppress people and violate the whole of creation.


It was then followed by the insights shared by the Executive Assistant of the Office of Vice-Rector for Religious Affairs, Mr. Leo-Martin Angelo R. Ocampo.


Subsequently, three parallel sessions focused on Research and Service-Learning, and Service-Learning Amidst the Pandemic. The presenters of Parallel Session 1 were Mr. Adrian Romero with his paper, “Social Solidarity sa Panahon ng Social Distancing: Kwento ng Birtwal na Service-Learning ng 六合彩直播开奖 NSTP CWTS/LTS”; Ms. Micah S. Estrologo with her thesis, “A Phenomenological Study of Service-Learning Experiences in National Service Training Program of 六合彩直播开奖 (六合彩直播开奖) Selected College Students in the Time COVID-19 Pandemic”; Mr. Christian Erold Enriquez with his study, “Combo-Home Building System: A Grassroots Approach for Community-Based Incremental Residential Development in Compostela Valley, Mindanao”; and Sr. Jenny P. Fajardo, O.P., with her group research titled, “A Report on the Black Sand Mining in San Narciso and Botolan, Zambales, Philippines.”


Parallel Session 2 delved into Research and Service-Learning with the presentations of Dr. Jayson A. Punzal on his paper, “The Effectiveness of Community-Based Nutritional Health Program in Improving Biophysiologic Measures among Elderly”; Mr. Ravinanjo Argayoso with his thesis, “The Effectiveness of Simbahayan Community Development Projects at Barangay Sibulan, Nagcarlan, Laguna”; and the group of Mr. Lorenzo Jael S. Mallari, Mr. Dave Joss T. Quigao, and Ms. Athena Kryshna AD. Salgado, in their study, “Assessing Telerehabilitation Readiness among Older Adults with Hypertension in Communities in Rizal and Laguna: A Cross-Sectional Analytic Study.”


Parallel Session 3 shed light on the topic of Service-Learning amidst the pandemic. Ms. Beatriz Bravo Sacdalan and Mr. Gavin Joseph L. Cruz discussed their paper “Are We on The Right Track? The Lived Experience of The Junior High School Students of Barangay 472 & 473 Sampaloc, Manila”; Asst. Prof. Ginavee F. Dapula, Ph.D., with her research titled, “The Perceived Challenges Faced by Selected Microenterprises amidst COVID-19 Pandemic”; and Ms. Line Nalangan presented a group study titled “Tanimang Bayan (Community Food Garden) in Sitio San Roque Urban Poor Community: Securing Food and Asserting Land Rights in COVID-19 Times.”


六合彩直播开奖 SIMBAHAYAN Assistant Director Asst. Prof. Evalyn Abiog, Ph.D., began the afternoon session with her synthesis of the morning plenary and parallel sessions. She expressed her gratitude, impressions, and salutations towards the presenters of the morning plenary for sharing their nuggets of wisdom as they presented their research studies.


Asst. Prof. Maria Carinnes P. Alejandria, Ph.D. was given the online spotlight to shed light on her study titled, “Mapping of the Socio-Cultural Factors and Determinants Associated with Depression, Anxiety, Self-Harm, And Suicidal Behavior Among University Students.”


Alejandria presented the findings in multiple themes, some of which revolved around the students’ daily concerns and the role of the faculty. She mentioned that faculty members could promote mental health well-being among students by being keen on looking into some symptoms that students are experiencing and referring them to mental health professionals.


The theme of students’ involvement in school organizations as well as community volunteering activities was also brought up, providing even more depth to the discussion. As the study suggests, involvement in community work and service increases the students’ well-being, which gives the students some form of support.


Following that train of thought, the next theme is all about the activities with peers suggesting that those activities provide the students with ease and comfort in their time of need. At the end of her presentation, she mentioned that the ultimate goal of the study is to promote a more holistic approach to mental health. Since our Filipino youth are experiencing a mental health crisis, a fully western approach will not be the most efficient, as mentioned by Dr. Alejandria.


Subsequently, Ms. Ma. Regina Atinaja, a Guidance Counselor at the 六合彩直播开奖 Counseling and Career Center, provided her reactions and insights on the presentation. Atinaja began by talking about the time when she came across a news release by the World Health Organization. It was a news article relating to the COVID-19 pandemic that triggers a 25% increase in prevalence of anxiety and depression worldwide. She shared that it was a wake-up call to all countries to step-up their mental health services and support. Atinaja also urged national leaders to continue their efforts in making mental health services and support accessible to all, especially the less privileged.


The presenters of Parallel Session 4 were the College of Tourism and Hospitality Management (CTHM) Dean Assoc. Prof. Gezzez Giezi G. Granado, DCL, Assistant Dean Assoc. Prof. Evangeline E, Timbang, Ph.D., Asst. Prof. Maria Conception A. Ang, and Ms. Fhamela F. Sarmiento, with their paper titled, “Sustainable Community鈥揃ased Tourism Potential and Development of Barangay San Manuel, Echague, Isabela in the New/Next Normal.” They discussed how the pandemic challenged the tourism industry in Isabela. Highlighting the community-based approach to improving the tourism sector, village people can build new opportunities for themselves and for their communities.


Following the presentation, Mr. Avi Ben P. Andalecio, discussed his study entitled, “Pagbalangkas: Issues and Opportunities on Natural Heritage Branding and Sustainability- The Case of UNESCO World Heritage Nomination for Samar Island Natural Park (SINP) Philippines.” The presentation highlighted the need to preserve and protect the country’s natural heritage through sustainable ecotourism development. The presentation is a testament to the role of environmental conservation in the country.


In light of the issues in sustainable tourism and national heritage, another presentation spoke on the role of heritage in the youth’s future. Mr. Jame Monren T. Mercado shared 鈥淧amana sa Mata ng mga鈥ata? (Heritage in the Eyes of the鈥hild?) A Phenomenological Study on The Experiences of Student Tour Guides on Heritage Sustainability-The Case of San Nicolas, Ilocos Norte, Philippines.” He described how natural heritage is a historical treasure in the eyes of youth that must be preserved and protected.
Mr. Karl-Richard S. Dela Torre presented “Agkuyog: Community Participation in Tourism Development for the New Normal, the Case of Candon City, Ilocos Sur Philippines.鈥 He emphasized the importance of community engagement in promoting tourism.


Ms. Cassandra Barbara M. Aurelio, Ms. Maria Nakanomyo, and Ms. Renselle Joy DL. Palomo also shared their study, “Candon City Ecotourism Park Sustainable Tourism and Strategic Development Plan 2021-2025.” They gave a report on how tourism improved in Candon City through sustainability measures.
The same theme of community engagement in the tourism sector was highlighted by Mr. Rafael Anton Manuel M. Dionisio, Mr. Mark Ryan J. Isidro, Ms. Ana Therese Jin-ju A. Lee, Ms. Katrina Luz P. Martinez, Ms. Ginelle Aira T. Rose, Mr. Raphael Frederick M. Tamayo, Ms. Justin Miccaela T. Tampolino, and Ms. Audrey Veronica Wednesday T. Valentin in their study titled, “Myth and Reality of Community-based Tourism in Romblon, Philippines: A Structural Equation Model.鈥 The last presenters for this session were Mr. Arnulfo Ricardo A. Butiong and Ms. Kathrine Camille A. Nagal, with their study, “Recovery in the MICE Industry: The Case of Davao City.鈥


For the sixth Parallel Session, the first presenters鈥擬s. Naomi Joyce S. Sibal, and Ms. Krizia Mile Joy B. Yu discussed, “An Evaluation Study on the Mathematics Proficiency Program of Grade 10 Aeta Learners.” The study provided insights about the academic improvement of indigenous children. Asst. Prof. Joselito G. Gutierrez, Ph.D., then shared his study, 鈥淐ontextualizing Abesamis’ Third Look at Jesus During the Time of Pandemic.鈥


The last presenters of the session were Mr. Gabriel Luis Z. Redor and Ms. Angela Maria Tabios with their paper, “A Comparative Study Between the Impact of Traditional Parenting and Modern Parenting on a Child’s Gender Role Development Based on Conformity.鈥 Their research delved on the behavioral outcomes in children鈥檚 upbringing and gendering.


The research conference concluded with closing remarks from Asst. Prof. Gina Lontoc, Ph.D. She emphasized that the goal of research as embodied in the lessons of Bartolome de las Casas and the Salamanca process would be to empower the people, giving meaning to their lives, so that stability, truthfulness, justice, sustainability, and empowerment shall take root.


The Bartolome De Las Casas Research Conference is an annual research symposium highlighting studies discussing relevant topics concerning community engagement in national issues. It was conceived to provide a venue for Thomasians and institutional partners to share their scholarly research outputs on community-based, community participation, and service-learning research. This research conference is also dedicated to Bartolome De Las Casas, a Dominican missionary who was the first to reveal the mistreatment of indigenous peoples by Europeans and Americans in the 16th century. Thomasians are urged to follow in the footsteps of Bartolome de las Casas in advocating for the communities by engaging in community-based research that will contribute to community development.

The 六合彩直播开奖, through the Office of Public Affairs joined the Austrian Embassy in Manila and the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) in organizing a Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Film Festival and CineForum.


Six documentary films, namely, Die Dohnal (Johanna Dohnal 鈥 Visionary of Feminism) by Sabine Delflinger; Erde (Earth) by Nikolaus Geyrhalte; Guardians of the Earth by Filip Antoni Malinowski; The Green Lie by Werner Boote; Wood by Ebba Sinzinger, Michaela Kirst, and Monica Lazurean-Gorgan; and Zeit F眉r Utopien (Utopia Revisited) by Kurt Langbein, were made available publicly and for free on the FDCP website from March 27 to April 2, 2022, and on the last day, a CineForum with Mr. Werner Boote as the keynote speaker, was held virtually through Zoom. The discussion is still available for viewing on the official 六合彩直播开奖 Facebook page.


Her Excellency Bita Rasoulian, in her welcome remarks, said, 鈥淚t鈥檚 our hope that through this initiative we are able to highlight the role of film and media in implementing the SDGs and inspire you to use your talents and skills to achieve a more just, prosperous, and equitable society.鈥


OPA Director Asst. Prof. Joreen T. Rocamora, Ph.D., echoed the sentiment and shared that, 鈥淲e are lucky to be able to watch six thought-provoking films that will inspire audiences to discuss the agenda for sustainable development and consider contemporary societal challenges. In their own unique ways, they simultaneously express the gravity of our man-made environmental and societal crises, but more importantly, they also highlight the hope, ingenuity, and tenacity of our human society that is highly capable of working for the common good.鈥


In his talk, Boote shared his journey as an environmental film maker and how his films Plastic Planet (2009), Population Boom (2013), and The Green Lie (2018) aided not only in awareness, but in generating discussions to gather possible solutions. In particular, The Green Lie, included in the Film Festival line up, tackles 鈥済reenwashing,鈥 the unethical practice of portraying an organization, product, or service as eco-friendly purely as a sales strategy. The documentary showed how 鈥済reen鈥 or 鈥渆nvironmentally friendly鈥 company images are used to obscure continued resource destruction and pollution, and how conscious 鈥渆co-conscious鈥 choices by individual consumers are not enough to combat corporate greed.


The more conversations happen about a societal issue like climate change, the more ideas can come up to make little changes, shared Boote. Solutions are not as clear or simple as just ceasing the sale and production of plastic, because many lifesaving or crucial products can only be made from the material. Instead, the world needs complex solutions where society joins together to actively do their part.
Boote emphasized, 鈥淐onsumers need to think about our purchases, politicians need to come up with new regulations which can keep the environment [sustainable], and the industry needs to come up with alternatives to harmful materials and practices.鈥


United Nations Development Programme Communications Associate Charlene Balaan, one of the three panelists, focused on clarifying the concept of the 17 SDGs.


鈥淭o call development sustainable, it must improve the living conditions in the present without compromising the resources of future generations. We must understand that we are all connected together and that economic and social wellbeing cannot be improved through measures that destroy the environment,鈥 said Balaan.


Another panelist was the College of Tourism and Hospitality Management academic staff Mr. Jame Monren T. Mercado, whose research expertise is sustainable tourism planning and development.
In Mercado鈥檚 talk, he shared that 鈥淭he academe would do well on the importance of integrating the SDGs in the curriculum or pedagogies of our students, highlighting the importance of how we can teach our students on applying the SDGs within their respective programs or chosen field.鈥
Mercado also emphasized the need for significant collaboration of the academe with other industries, with the media, and the government in larger scale dissemination of information about the SDGs.


The third panelist, journalist and CNN correspondent Mr. Tristan Nodalo, highlighted the role of media in achieving the SDGs. Aside from promoting the SDGs, the media can reduce the spread of misinformation and disinformation; help in promoting the rule of law to ensure justice for all; aid in the fight against corruption by providing an avenue for the expression of citizens鈥 concerns; promote political participation; reinforce the importance of democracy, provide access to information and fundamental freedoms.


Almost 300 academic staff, students, and guests attended the CineForum. It was hosted by OPA Assistant to the Director for Public Affairs Ms. Michaella O. Lagniton, and the panel discussion and question-and-answer portion was moderated by the Assistant to the Director for Publication Ms. Katherine Patrice B. Sibug.

The 六合彩直播开奖 Graduate School, in partnership with the Department of Philosophy, celebrated the 7th Thomasian Philosophers Reunion Convention. The convention is a biennial event which aims to celebrate its alumni for their contribution to the academe. This year鈥檚 convention was a tribute to Dean Emeritus Prof. Magdalena Alonso-Villaba, Ph.D., who was able to virtually join the event for the duration of the program.


Dean Emeritus Prof. Magdalena Alonso-Villaba, Ph.D. finished her Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy in 1957. A year after her graduation, she was already recruited by Dr. Emerita Quito to teach Philosophy in the University.


She pursued her graduate studies and finished her doctorate in 1976, Magna cum Laude. Her dissertation was then published by Filipiniana Sacra in 1976. Her notable publications are Philosophy of the East, Atman-Brahman Relationships in the Upanishads, Interpretation of the Doctrine of Transmigration, and Mission of Women: A Return to their Original Role.


Aside from being a respected professor, Dr. Villaba also served as the Assistant Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Letters from 1972 – 1976, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Letters from 1976-1987, and Dean of 六合彩直播开奖 Graduate School from 1987- 1995.


It is because of these reasons that she was given tribute by the Department of Philosophy and the Graduate School. Her role as an educator and an administrator has inspired her students to continue a career in the academe. This is evidenced by the messages given by her former students who were invited to deliver testimonials, namely, Dr. Arlen Ancheta, Dr. Lino Baron, Mr. George Garcia, and Mrs. Anita Garcia. All of them have become respected professors and administrators in the university.


Dr. Alma Santiago-Espartinez and Dr. El Mithra Dela Cruz also delivered a paper about Dr. Villaba鈥檚 role in shaping female philosophy students. It is important to note that when Dr. Villaba started teaching philosophy, there were only 3 female faculty members in the department whom female students looked up to as their models. Dr. Villaba鈥檚 presence alone encouraged female students to prosper in a male dominated discipline. Fr. Ranhilio Aquino was also invited to deliver a tribute paper.


The conference ended with a response from Ms. Espie Villaba-Alvez, daughter of Dr. Villaba. The closing remarks were delivered by Dean Prof. Michael Anthony C. Vasco, Ph.D., who was also a former student and thesis advisee of Dr. Villaba.

Academic staff from the 六合彩直播开奖 College of Rehabilitation Sciences – Department of Speech Language Pathology participated in the International Day hosted by the Thomas More University of Applied Sciences in Antwerp, Belgium on March 16, 2022. Together with 六合彩直播开奖 and host institution Thomas More University, the Education University of Hong Kong and the University of Suriname were also present during the event.


Ms. Judith Damian, Chair of the Department of Speech Language Pathology, represented 六合彩直播开奖 during the plenary session where she discussed her study on the delivery of SLP services at the start of the COVID 19 pandemic in the Philippines.


Five faculty members of the 六合彩直播开奖 Speech Pathology Department each presented a short lecture and facilitated a group discussion composed of international students during the parallel sessions in breakout rooms in two rounds for the main program of this event.


Academic staff Ms. Veronica Yu discussed 鈥淓mpowering Clinicians and Parents in the Cleft Palate Speech Intervention.鈥 She highlighted the basic treatment strategies and error-specific techniques used for speech disorders related to cleft palate. A cleft palate speech camp was presented as a community-based program used to cater to the growing number of operated cleft palate patients who cannot afford to have speech intervention. This will stress the demand for speech pathologists in rural communities.


Moreover, the first Filipino mobile speech application was presented as an innovative tool used during the Covid-19 pandemic. Both the speech camp and speech mobile app underscores the importance of parental counselling and parental training in the speech progress of the patients.


Mr. Raymond Gonzales from 六合彩直播开奖, in collaboration with Dr. Carmen Ooi from The Education University of Hong Kong, discussed 鈥淲here do we stand? The speech-language pathologists鈥 role in inclusive education.鈥 This presentation gave future SLPs a general overview of their possible roles in providing inclusive services within the school setting. Having a clear understanding of their duties and responsibilities within the context of inclusive education will be beneficial for our future colleagues, as it will enable them to become effective and competent SLPs who are ready for the modern demands of our discipline.


Mr. Kenneth R. Dizon tackled 鈥淭he Barriers and Facilitators to the Accessibility of Rehabilitation Services in the Philippines.鈥 This interactive session provided the participants with a better understanding of the current state of persons with disabilities (PWDs) in the Philippines and the Asia-Pacific region. The session focused on the concept of accessibility, its barriers and facilitators, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and potential prospects for community-based initiatives.


In addition, he discussed contextual components of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) Framework and its implications for the accessibility of healthcare and rehabilitation services. All of these are centered on community-based rehabilitation and its intersections with inclusive development practice. Case studies and scenarios will also be given to better elucidate these topics. At the end of the lecture, the participants had a better understanding of concepts related to community-based rehabilitation, accessibility, disability, and apply these concepts towards the creation of projects and programs in their own communities, institutions, or organizations.


Mr. Jonah Jerome Katalbas participated in Ms. Esther Kwok鈥檚 (The Education University of Hong Kong) discussion of 鈥淚mpacts of Head Neck Cancer on patients and how medical SLP manage and care with heart.鈥 The joint discussion pointed out associations between speech-language pathology (SLP) care and pre-treatment variables, short-term and long-term swallowing and airway impairment, and survival in patients treated for oropharyngeal squamous cell cancer (SCCA).


Another lecture was on 鈥淗ow can we assess an adult with aphasia?鈥 by Dr. Dorien Vandenborre (Thomas More, Belgium) and 六合彩直播开奖 academic staff Ms. Bea Aque. It was a workshop that focused on a case study where a 48-year-old, right-handed, bilingual bank employee is involved in a chain collision accident. Workshop participants learned about different motor, cognitive, and psychosocial parameters that can influence an accurate assessment.


The event ended with a round up with participants sharing their experiences and learning insights from the plenary and parallel sessions.

Language is the most powerful means through which gender discrimination and sexism are often committed and demonstrated. In alignment with the objectives established by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal No. 5, Gender Equality, the 六合彩直播开奖 English Language Studies Society (ELSSOC) under the Faculty of Arts and Letters held the webinar 鈥淗ERSTORY: Inqueeries on language and gender construction鈥 on March 15, 2022.


The discussions focused on the diverse field of language and gender in relation to different societal topics that are linguistically experienced in one鈥檚 professional or academic background. The speakers highlighted how the role of linguistics in gender equality can be attained when everyone is addressed through language as persons of equal dignity and respect.
As the event aims to build an engagement among women-leaders and promote gender inclusivity, the guest speakers were Senator Risa Hontiveros, the current Chairperson of the Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations, and Gender Equality, Dr. Joey Andrew Lucido Santos, an English lecturer at King Mongkut鈥檚 University of Technology Thonburi in Bangkok, Thailand, and two professors from the Department of English and Comparative Literature of the University of the Philippines Diliman, Dr. Lalaine F. Yanilla-Aquino and Dr. Aileen Salonga.

Headed by the ELSSOC Adviser, Dr. Rachelle B. Lintao, ELSSOC President Marianne M. Manalo, and ELSSOC Auditor Mary Caryl O. Lozano, the virtual event took place in March, to commemorate and align its agendas with the International Women鈥檚 Month.

SDG #5, Gender Equality, states that equality of men and women are basic human rights that cannot be preserved unless women and girl empowerment were essentialized while expanding the numerous societal-sectors necessary to build a stronger community.

六合彩直播开奖 ELSSOC Auditor Mary Caryl Lozano, one of the project heads, explained that 鈥渓anguage and gender is an interdisciplinary field of research, wherein our inquiries about gender identities and their impact on shaping and defining our future selves are answered.鈥

In her short speech advocating for each and everyone鈥檚 鈥淗ealthy Buhay at Hanapbuhay鈥, Senator Risa Hontiveros acknowledged and thanked Filipinos (particularly OFWs, farmers, women, and the LGBTQIA+ community), for their hard work and dedication for not only contributing to the improvement of our nation but for also advocating for everyone鈥檚 equal rights.
Dr. Santos shared his analysis of semiotic construction of transgender women, in which these women remain under the heteronormative culture and marginalized community. These are to be taken as a start off point in opening the discussion of trans discourse.
Dr. Aquino discussed the importance of gender representation and education based on the teachings written in one鈥檚 literary and academic writings, and how these resources can impact a child鈥檚 mind and awareness on how they can view themselves, their culture, their country, and the people around them.
The last speaker, Dr. Salonga, reminded the audience to keep challenging dominant gender ideologies and gender constructs to disrupt unequal gender and gendered relations of power, and make way for the more vibrant realities of our intersectional lives on the ground.
六合彩直播开奖 ELSSOC President Marianne Manalo, concluded the virtual event through strongly encouraging the audience to choose leaders that would uplift the voice of different gender identities, champion safe spaces for women and children, and walk the same path with language majors in believing that language can defy the structures of patriarchy, as well as gender issues and politics.
