𝗜𝗡 𝗣𝗛𝗢𝗧𝗢𝗦 | 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗮 𝘄𝗿𝗮𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗶 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲! ✨🌿🗣️

Last April 27–28, 2026 at Central Mindanao University, we came together to reflect on healing through culture, spirituality, food, storytelling, music, sports, and mental health.

For two days, we listened, shared stories, learned from one another, and made space for conversations that reminded us that healing does not happen alone. It lives in community, in memory, and in the people who walk with us through it.

Daghang salamat to everyone who joined us; our speakers, facilitators, partners, and participants for bringing your time, energy, and stories into this gathering.

As Mindanawons, healing means returning to what grounds us: our roots, our stories, and our people. 🍃
