‎𝗠𝗔𝗧𝗧𝗜, 𝗗𝗜𝗚𝗢𝗦 𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬 — In celebration of National Women’s Month, the BSDC 4th Year Section A students successfully conducted a seminar titled “Lead like Babaylans, Filipinas: Empowering Communities, Leading with Courage.” Under the guidance of Ma’am Cheryl G. Nacion, the initiative was implemented for DevCom 3rd and 4th year students as well as the Grade 11 students and faculty of Matti National High School as part of the DEVC 628 – Undergraduate Seminar course.
‎
‎The program opened with a welcome from Ma’am Cheryl G. Nacion, who recognized the presence of the school, its partners, and the students. She also introduced the guest speaker and provided a brief context for the discussion.
‎
‎The highlight of the event featured guest speaker Ma’am Helina P. D**a, GAD Focal Person of Davao Oriental State University, who challenged traditional stereotypes about women in leadership. She emphasized that women’s natural traits—including their emotional intelligence and unique biological experiences—should not be viewed as limitations. Instead, she reframed these as sources of strength and authenticity, contributing to a more empathetic and grounded leadership style.
‎
‎Inspired by the discussion, the Grade 11 participants and faculty, together with the 3rd year and 4th year students engaged in reflections on how they could apply these values within their own campus and the community. The session encouraged students to take initiative, support their peers, and realize that leadership often begins with small, intentional actions in their daily lives.
‎
‎The event’s success was a result of a collaborative effort between the BSDC organizers, the faculty of Matti National High School, and the Sangguniang Kabataan of Matti. Hosts Dherie Queen Azutilla and Adones Gabutero guided the morning’s flow, while various committees worked behind the scenes to ensure a seamless program. The organizers expressed their deep gratitude to the school administration and to Ma’am Cheryl G. Nacion for her mentorship in bringing this vision of community empowerment to life.

Good luck Everyone 👏👏👏

See you all tomorrow KaDevs!
