Quezon City University joins the MOVE Training of Trainers

Quezon City University (QCU) proudly participated in the Men Opposed to Violence Against Women Everywhere (MOVE) Training of Trainers, a three-day program held from November 5–7, 2025, at The Tribute Hotel, Diliman, Quezon City.

Representing QCU were Lenard F. Bien, Bernard F. Gaya, and Joe Andrew D. Esposa, who joined other male advocate leaders from various sectors in this intensive capacity-building initiative organized by the Quezon City Gender and Development Council Office.

The training focused on key issues such as gender equality, mental health awareness, violence prevention, and strategic communication, aiming to develop a cadre of competent MOVE trainers capable of leading community-wide advocacy and education efforts toward a violence-free and gender-fair society.

Ngayong Oktubre ay ating ginugunita ang Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

Ang breast cancer ay hindi lamang usapin ng kalusugan, ito ay usapin ng pagmamahal sa sarili at sa mga taong mahal natin. Kaya ngayong buwan, paalala sa ating lahat:

✅ Magpa-screening habang maaga
✅ Magpakonsulta kung may napapansing sintomas o pagbabago
✅ Suportahan ang mga kababaihan (at kalalakihan) na patuloy na lumalaban
✅ Iparamdam ang malasakit sa pamamagitan ng pagbabahagi ng impormasyon.

Kasama ninyo ang Quezon City Government sa pagtiyak na may sapat na kaalaman, suporta, at serbisyong pangkalusugan para sa mga lumalaban sa breast cancer.

In celebration of the Women's Month, the Quezon City Ladies Foundation Inc., in partnership with the QC GAD Council and the QCU GAD Office, held a film showing of "SHE SAID" last March 16, 2023 at the Quezon City University Auditorium.

Endorsed by QC Mayor Joy Belmonte, this semi-documentary film about the sexual harassment investigation of producer Harvey Weinstein, served as the launching pad for the Movement, shattering decades of silence around the subject of sexual assault and harassment.

Dr. Theresita V. Atienza, the President of Quezon City University and QC GAD Council member, gave the welcome remarks and the talk about the film and movement.

Atty. Maria Joy Karen G. Andraneda-Filio, Asst. Regional Public Attorney of the Public Attorney's Office (PAO) gave a talk on " Accessibility to Help and Justice".

The event was attended by QCLFI President Mrs. Joy W. Sotto and Executive Vice President Mrs. Carmencita V. Medalla together with other Central Board officers and district officers and members from Districts 1 to 6.

Ms. Kristhine Adraneda-Advincula, QCLFI Central Board Secretary and District 3 VP Ms. Oryza Shelley V. De Leon acted as the Program Facilitators.
