On 07 April 2026, we marked the successful conduct of the NPDC Learning Series: An Echo Session on the Symposium on Fees and Charges.

We commend our internal speakers who continue to share their expertise and inspire learning across the organization. Through initiatives like this, 𝐌𝐬. 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐮𝐱 𝐕𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚 𝐓. 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐨, 𝐀𝐝𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐕 (𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐈𝐈𝐈) of the Cultural and Public Affairs Division (CPAD), exemplified how knowledge gained can be transformed into meaningful discussions that benefit everyone.

More than a platform for sharing knowledge, the activity highlighted the value of tapping internal expertise while strengthening presentation and facilitation skills. It helped build confidence, enhance communication, and foster a culture of continuous growth within the organization.

Here’s to more opportunities that spotlight internal talents and cultivate excellence from within! 👏

As part of the National Parks Development Committee’s Mental Health Program, we opened a safe, meaningful space for reflection, connection, and spiritual growth through our regular Bible Study sessions, which began this March and will continue in the coming months.

Anchored on the belief that true well-being goes beyond the physical and mental, this initiative supports our Spiritual Wellness, one of the key dimensions in building a balanced, resilient, and purpose-driven workforce.

Held on the second and third Thursdays of every month, these sessions invite employees to pause, reflect, and find strength in faith while sharing insights and life experiences.

At NPDC, we believe supporting our people goes beyond work to include caring for their mind, body, and spirit.
