In celebration of Women’s Month, the Polytechnic University of the Philippines, in partnership with PUP College of Law, Ina ng Bayan sa Sais, Tara Kabataan, Akbayan Youth and The Sanctuary Network gathered with lawmakers, advocates, and students for “Mga Batas para sa Kababaihan: Tagumpay, Hamon, at Susunod na Laban.”

We are proud to share that our Legal Aid Clinic actively participated in the event by offering free legal services and consultations to members of the community, bringing the law closer to the people and reinforcing our commitment to access to justice for women.

Today, we celebrate more than a title, we celebrate your leadership, strength, and unwavering dedication to justice. As Director for Legal Affairs of the Legal Aid Clinic, you carried not only responsibilities, but the trust of the entire organization.

You led with wisdom, served with integrity, and stood firm in upholding the principles of fairness and accountability. Your work behind every case, every document, and every client concern reflected both competence and compassion.

Your journey proves that true leadership in law is not just about knowing the rules, it’s about standing for what is right, even when it’s difficult.

The Legal Aid Clinic is better because of you. And this is only the beginning. ✨

Congratulations on your graduation, PX! The future of the legal profession shines brighter with you in it. 🎉⚖️

ONE DAY LEFT!

Tomorrow’s forum, “Mga Pamatbat sa Pagpasabat: The Continuing Call for Accountability in Duterte’s War on Drugs through the International Criminal Court,” serves as a vital space to bridge the gap between unresolved cries for justice and the international mechanisms designed to answer them.

We are honored to be joined by Atty. Kristina Conti, Secretary-General of NUPL–NCR and Assistant to Counsel before the International Criminal Court. As someone who walks alongside the families of victims in their daily struggle, she will provide crucial updates on the ICC proceedings and discuss why the pursuit of accountability remains the only path forward. In a climate of persistent impunity, understanding the legal avenues available to us is more than just academic; it is a tool for survival and a means of sustaining a movement that refuses to let these extrajudicial killings be forgotten.

This is a final call to all law students, practitioners, youth leaders, and human rights defenders. Whether you are joining us at the UP Visayas Little Theater or via Zoom, your presence signifies that the call for justice is collective and unyielding. We invite you to bring your questions, your doubts, and your hope to this space of reflection and resistance.

Justice is never automatic; it must be demanded, sustained, and shared. Join us tomorrow, January 11, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, as we reaffirm our commitment to human rights and the rule of law.

Congratulations to the 2025 Bar Passers and the newest PUPian lawyers!

May you wear the title Attorney not as a badge of privilege, but as a lifelong commitment to justice, service, and accountability. May your legal education be lived beyond courtrooms and titles, and your victories measured not only by cases won, but by lives defended and communities empowered.

In a time that demands courage, may you choose to stand with the marginalized, defend human rights, challenge injustice, and use the law as a tool for social transformation. The law finds new defenders in you—may you always remain grounded in the people you serve and steadfast in the principles you uphold.

Mula sayo sintang paaralan, para sa bayan!
