Values-Based Peacebuilding: Amidst a world often marked by strife, Dir. Ann Montejo underscored the importance of values-based peacebuilding in education. The interactive sessions illuminated the role of education in promoting tolerance, empathy, and conflict resolution, rooted in the vision of One Family under God.

Holistic Development of Educators and Students: The workshop on the holistic growth of educators and students underscored the significance of nurturing emotional intelligence, resilience, and well-being, not only among students but also among educators who serve as powerful role models.
