Online Webinar International Day of Peace 2020 #Philippines
The Youth and Students for Peace Misamis Occidental – together with the World Collegiate Association for the Research of Principles (WCARP), the Local Government Unit (LGU) and Sanguniang Kabataan (SK) Federation of Aloran – organized a one-day webinar with the theme, “Shaping Peace Together,” to mark the International Day of Peace 2020. The webinar occurred in the Municipality of Aloran, Misamis Occidental, Philippines, on September 21, 2020, by means of live webcast on Facebook.
This one-day webinar aims to reach potential young people and students who advocate and support peace and determined to build a YSP chapter in the aforementioned municipality. The support of the mayor of the Municipality of Aloran, Hon. Junipher Roa, and his Vice-Mayor, Hon. Jimmy Regalado, impacted the online event by being able to reach the support of government and political leaders through giving messages of peace.
Moreover, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 16, Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions, was in supported and in alignment throughout the event.
This online webinar event had a huge influence on young people and students because it was also the first one they’ve ever done, apart from the message it seeks to communicate. Aloran’s LGU was also very helpful and one of the factors that made this possible.
