NU Baliwag - National Service Training Program

"A Swipe of Brush: Architecture Students Pave Way through Mural Integration" 🎨🖌️

Under the supervision of Professor Charmaine Meimban, a group of NSTP 2 students representing section ARC 231 carried out an official site visitation at Baliwag South Central School on January 29, 2024. 🏫🚌

During the formal meeting, the team achieved a significant milestone in their community-based project endeavor .🎭 The students have actively partaken in discussions with the elementary school officials to discuss the draft of the Memorandum of Understanding into alignment with the acceptance and acknowledgment program to be executed on the last day of the project implementation. 💼🤝🏻

Collaborating seamlessly, they forged a comprehensive agenda to bring about a positive transformation in the school community's future. The collaboration highlights the mutual objective of enriching educational settings by introducing students to exquisite paintings, paving the way for them to uncover and cultivate their interest in the creative sphere. 👩🏻🎨🎨

One week before the upcoming barangay and SK election, we must remain critical and discerning in our voting decisions.

In a voter education campaign led by ACT302 NSTP2 Students in the last 3rd term of AY. 2022-2023, entitled Tumindig at Makiisa para sa Kinabukasan ng Bawat Isa, the participants were imparted with some points to consider in voting- to wit, the Filipino four core values, the pillars of good governance, the practice of vote buying/selling, and being vigilant on misinformation.

We must seek out candidates who embody the values of being maka-Diyos, makatao, makakalikasan, and makabansa and individuals who demonstrate the eight pillars of good governance (Participation, Rule of Law, Transparency, Responsiveness, Consensus Oriented, Equity and Inclusiveness, Effectiveness and Efficiency, and Accountability.)

Furthermore, we are responsible for rejecting candidates who resort to the unethical practices of vote buying and selling, as these actions erode the foundations of our democracy and legal system.
Moreover, let us always fact-check information before accepting and sharing it, ensuring we do not inadvertently perpetuate misinformation. This way, we can collectively work toward an election representing our values and aspirations.

On their accomplishment report, the said project's leader Khalil Ylmari Josef Pancho wrote “…Naunawaan ko ang kahalagahan ng pakikinig sa mga suhestiyon ng aking mga kagrupo. Gayundin ang kahalagahan ng kabilisan sa pagtugon sa mga pangangailangan ng aming proyekto. Ngunit para sa akin, ang pinakamahalagang natutuhan ko ay walang lider na mahusay kung walang mga miyembro na makikinig, susunod, makikiisa, at magbibigay ng sariling opinyon...” The group experienced participation, effectivity and efficiency in the orgranization of their community immersion.
