Every great structure begins with a strong foundation—and so does every meaningful journey.
In this episode of Green Chair, we sit down with Ar. Aldrin Umali, a proud Baliuag University High School alumnus and licensed architect, to talk about the story behind his profession.

From discovering his passion for architecture, overcoming the demands of architecture school, and embracing the realities of professional practice, to serving through organizations and promoting culture and the arts, Ar. Aldrin reminds us that success is built not only through talent, but also through purpose, resilience, and service.

PEACE STARTS AT THE CENTER. ✨🕊️

Baliuag University, in partnership with JCI Baliwag Buntal, proudly launched Project CenterPeace on June 18, 2026, a student-led community peacebuilding initiative that places peace at the heart of learning, dialogue, and collective action.

“CenterPeace” reminds us that peace is never at the sidelines—it is at the core of community life, and every individual, especially the youth, is an essential piece of peace.

Aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals on Quality Education (SDG 4), Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions (SDG 16), and Partnerships for the Goals (SDG 17), Project CenterPeace empowers students to become champions of understanding, inclusivity, and positive change.

Congratulations to the newly appointed CenterPeace Youth Ambassadors from BU Basic Education! 🎉 Your leadership, passion, and commitment will help build communities rooted in respect, unity, and hope.

Together, we prove that when young people are empowered, peace becomes possible—and lasting. 🕊️
