Gender and Development Office-Isufst Dingle Campus

Ngayong araw ng mga puso, ipaalala natin sa ating sarili at sa isa’t-isa:
Deserve natin ang pagmamahal na ligtas, may respeto, at may malasakit.

May this kind of love find you — and stay with you. 💗✨

The ISUFST Di**le Campus, through the Gender and Development Office, joins the global community in commemorating the 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 this December 3, 2025. This observance is a reminder of our shared responsibility to foster an inclusive, compassionate, and empowering environment for all. 💙

As reflected in the artwork, learners of diverse abilities study, collaborate, and thrive together—showing that disability is not a limitation, but a part of human diversity. Today, we honor their strength, resilience, and contributions to our community. 🌟

Let us stand united in breaking barriers, challenging stereotypes, and ensuring that every person is seen, heard, and valued. Do not judge a disability by its visibility, embrace inclusivity every day. 🤝

The ISUFST Di**le Campus, through its Gender and Development Office, successfully held the PAMUKAW: Caravan and Kick-Off Activity for the 18-Day Campaign to End Violence Against Women (VAW) on November 27, 2025. In partnership with the Local Government Unit of Di**le, the Di**le PNP, and in collaboration with various stakeholders, the event marked a strong and unified start to this year’s national observance. 🧡

The day opened with the gathering of participants at the ISUFST Di**le Campus Grounds, followed by the highly anticipated PAMUKAW Caravan that made its way around key areas of the municipality. With orange-themed vehicles, advocacy banners, and participants showcasing their support, the caravan successfully spread awareness and strengthened the community’s collective stand against VAW.

After the caravan, participants convened for the formal program, which featured messages of support from university officials and partner agencies. A Symbolic Commitment Ceremony (Pledge for a VAW-Free Di**le) brought everyone together in a shared vow to uphold respect, safety, and empowerment for all women and girls in the community.

The resource speaker, 𝐏𝐌𝐒𝐆 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐞 𝐋. 𝐀𝐥𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞, Assistant Women and Children Protection Desk PNCO, provided a comprehensive and informative Talk Proper, focusing on the realities and challenges faced by women and children, as well as the role of the community in combating violence. 🧡

The success of the PAMUKAW Caravan and Kick-Off Activity reflects ISUFST Di**le Campus’ steadfast commitment to fostering a safer, more inclusive, and more empowered environment. In partnership with LGU-Di**le and other stakeholders, the campus continues to champion the cause of a VAW-free future for all. 🧡✨
