UP Diliman Month 2017

Sa pagdiriwang ng Buwan ng UP Diliman sa Pebrero, sama-sama nating sariwain sa ating haraya at isipan ang mga k’wentong bayan na kinalalakipan ng samu’t saring saysay, pukaw at kaalaman. Ang buwan ng UP Diliman ngayong taon ay Salaysayan: K’wentong Bayan, Kaalamang Bayan ay kaalinsabay rin ng taunang pagdiriwang ng pambansang buwan ng mga sining.

Para sa taong ito, adhikain ng pagdiriwang ang pagkakaroon ng mas malalim na pagunawa sa kuwentong bayan sa iba’t ibang panhon at lunan. Layunin rin ang maipakita na ang mga kuwentong bayan ay mga imbakan ng kaalamang bayan. Mahalagang salik rin ang maiugnay-ugnay ang mga kwwentong bayan sa mga naratibo ng pagkabansa ng Pilipinas. Higit sa lahat, ang pagdiriwang ay isang malikhaing paraan upang maisalin ang mga kwwentong bayan sa iba’t ibang porma ng sining.

Tampok sa Salaysayan ang iba’t ibang pagtatanghal (teatro, sayaw, papet at musika), mini film festival at talakayan. Ang centerpiece ng pagdiriwang ngayong taon ay isang installation at interactive na eksibit: Sansinukob.

 

Malugod namin kayong inaanyayahan sa iba’t ibang kaganapan ng UP Diliman Month 2017.  

2016 Development Policy Research Month

To promote and draw nationwide awareness on the importance of policy research in national development, Malacañang Proclamation No. 247 declares the month of September of every year as the Development Policy Research Month. This year’s theme is “Angkop na Kahandaan: Matatag na Ekonomiya at Lipunan (Investing in Risk Reduction for a Resilient Philippines)”, which aims to highlight the need for in-depth reflections and analyses of resilience building, risk reduction, and structural transformation, and the role of appropriate policy interventions in building the country’s resilience to various economic, environmental, political, and social risks and stresses. The celebration also hopes to emphasize to policymakers the importance of resilience thinking and the formulation of appropriate policy interventions to build economic resilience.

Call for Nominations: UP Gawad Plaridel 2016

CALL FOR NOMINATIONS: U.P. GAWAD PLARIDEL 2016 (Category: Radio)

The U.P. College of Mass Communication (UP CMC) is now accepting nominations for the annual U.P. GAWAD PLARIDEL which recognizes Filipino media practitioners who have excelled in any of the media (print, radio, film, television, and new media) and have performed with the highest level of professional integrity in the interest of public service.

For 2016, the twelfth U.P. Gawad Plaridel will be given to an outstanding RADIO PRACTITIONER.

The award is named after Marcelo H. del Pilar (nom de plume, Plaridel), the selfless propagandist whose stewardship of the reformist newspaper La Solidaridad helped crystallize nationalist sentiments and ignite libertarian ideas in the 1890s. Like Plaridel, the recipient must believe in the vision of a Philippine society that is egalitarian, participative and progressive; and in media that are socially responsible, critical and vigilant, liberative and transformative, and free and independent.

Eligible for the awards are all living Filipino individuals who have excelled in the field of radio as producer, director, scriptwriter, announcer, voice actor, sound designer, sound technician, reporter, commentator, etc. Aside from their probity and integrity, these media practitioners must have produced a body of work that is marked by excellence and social relevance and must have achievements recognized nationally and/or internationally.

Individuals and institutions may nominate potential recipients. Institutions include media corporations, professional media associations, media advocacy groups, educational institutions, cultural foundations, and NGOs. Previous nominees may still be considered for this year’s award. All current full-time faculty and staff of the UP CMC are disqualified from the nomination.

The deadline for submission of nominations is on 01 March 2016, 5pm. The recipient of the U.P. Gawad Plaridel 2016 will be announced in April 2016.

The U.P. GAWAD PLARIDEL will be given in August in commemoration of del Pilar’s birth anniversary. The awardee will receive the U.P. Gawad Plaridel trophy (designed by National Artist Napoleon Abueva) and will deliver the Plaridel Lecture addressing issues relevant to the state and practice of Philippine media. The recipient will have a place of honor at all ceremonies and functions of the College. The recipient’s portrait will be hung at the U.P. Gawad Plaridel Gallery located at the College lobby (Plaridel Hall, U.P. Diliman).

Nomination forms and award guidelines are available at the UP CMC Website (http://masscomm.upd.edu.ph/upgawadplaridel2016) and at the UP CMC Office of Extension and External Relations (UP CMC-OEER). Interested parties may call (02) 981-8500 loc. 2668 for further inquiries.
