FROM POLICY TO ACTION: BUILDING A MORE RESILIENT PHILIPPINES!

Congratulations to Maโ€™am May Rose C. Dorico and Prof. Garry B. Tabugon on the publication of their research in the Journal of Ecosystem Science and Eco-Governance (JESEG)!

Their study, โ€œDisaster Management Policies in the Philippines: A Thematic Review of Governance, Implementation, and Policy Gaps,โ€ provides valuable insights into the gaps between disaster policies and their implementation highlighting the need for stronger local capacity, better coordination, policy integration, and inclusive governance.

A strong disaster policy is only as effective as its implementation.
Congratulations, Maโ€™am May Rose C. Dorico and Prof. Garry B. Tabugon and on this meaningful scholarly achievement and contribution to advancing disaster resilience and governance in the Philippines!

For Catholics, every Mass is not merely symbolic; they believe that they receive the literal Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. In the Eucharist, the saying โ€œ๐˜ž๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ธ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ตโ€ comes alive. As the faithful receive the Body and Blood of Christ, they hope to become what they eat. As St. Athanasius once said, โ€œ๐˜Ž๐˜ฐ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ถ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ ๐˜ด๐˜ฐ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ฉ๐˜ถ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ด ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜บ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ.โ€

It happens by the power of the Word. Words spoken with authority do not merely describe - they command and create. When a police officer declares, โ€œ๐˜ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ถ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต,โ€ or when a referee calls, โ€œ๐˜๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ,โ€ their words take effect. These are only human words, yet they have real power. How much more powerful, then, are the words of God:
โ€œ๐˜“๐˜ฆ๐˜ต ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜จ๐˜ฉ๐˜ต,โ€ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ธ๐˜ข๐˜ด ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜จ๐˜ฉ๐˜ต. (๐˜Ž๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ ๐Ÿฃ:๐Ÿฅ)

The priests and bishops, as successors of the apostles, carry this same sacred authority. When the priest proclaims, โ€œ๐™๐™๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ข๐™ฎ ๐˜ฝ๐™ค๐™™๐™ฎโ€ฆ ๐™๐™๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ข๐™ฎ ๐˜ฝ๐™ก๐™ค๐™ค๐™™,โ€ the bread and w**e are no longer mere symbols - they become the real Body and Blood of Christ.

Thus, when Jesus said, โ€œ๐˜‹๐˜ฐ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜บ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ,โ€ (Lk 22:19), the Greek word anamnesis means not only โ€œ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จโ€ but making present, a real encounter, not a distant recollection. In Scripture, to โ€œ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณโ€ or to โ€œ๐˜ฌ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธโ€ means intimate participation, as when Mary said she โ€œ๐˜ฌ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ธ ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ฏโ€ (Lk 1:34), meaning she had no intimate union. So too, in the Eucharist, to โ€œ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณโ€ Christ is to enter into communion with Him who is truly present.

Can technology truly be fair, or does efficiency sometimes come at the cost of humanity?

Congratulations to Dr. Vitalian Christophere L. Napone and his Ethics students on the publication of their research, "AI Recruiting Tools and the Unfairness Behind the Face of Efficiency."

Their study explores the ethical implications of using AI in hiring. It shows that while AI can make the hiring process faster, it can also introduce bias, reduce human judgment, and make it more difficult to determine who is accountable for hiring decisions. The research reminds us that technology should always be guided by fairness, transparency, and respect for every person.

May your work continue to inspire the responsible and ethical use of AI for the benefit of society. Congratulations once again!
