From 28 November to 4 December, we joined the celebration of Mindanao Week of Peace with a theme, “Environmental Care and Resilience to Climate Change: Action for Peace. The event was led by the Institute for Peace and Development in Mindanao (IPDM) and held at Peace Plaza of Mindanao State University (MSU) Campus in Marawi City.
Our team set up advocacy photo booths for professors, staff, and students to understand better and become part of the priority issues that we are pushing for in BARMM— children, women, youth, IDPs and the environment.
We also held games promoting information on the Bangsamoro Organic Law, the parliamentary system of BARMM and the goals of this new government. From the games, we realized that even teachers and professors need understanding of the new BARMM system.
