UPLIFTING THE FUTURE, ONE YOUNG ILONGGO AT A TIME. 💙🌱

The Province of Iloilo proudly takes the national stage as Governor Arthur R. Defensor, Jr. presents Tib-ong Kabataan: Total Adolescent and Youth Health Development for MoRProGRes Iloilo, the province’s official entry to the 2026 Galing Pook Awards.

Rooted in the Ilonggo word “tib-ong,” meaning to uplift, this flagship initiative embodies a shared commitment to protecting, empowering, and nurturing the health and well-being of adolescents and young people.

More than a program, Tib-ong Kabataan is a testament to the power of collaboration. Through the collective efforts of various departments of the Iloilo Provincial Government, local health workers, educational institutions, national government agencies, local government units, and other partner organizations, the initiative brings together essential health services, mental health support, adolescent-friendly spaces, and responsive interventions to address the evolving needs of our youth.

From preventing adolescent pregnancy to promoting mental wellness and holistic youth development, Tib-ong Kabataan demonstrates how people-centered, data-driven, and collaborative governance can create meaningful and lasting change.

As Iloilo vies for another Galing Pook distinction, this presentation represents more than a pursuit of recognition—it is a reaffirmation of the province’s commitment to investing in its greatest resource: its people, especially the next generation of Ilonggos.

Because when we uplift our youth, we uplift the future of Iloilo. 💙

🔐 PROTECTING PEOPLE AND INFORMATION: A SUCCESSFUL SECOND DAY OF LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT

The Iloilo Provincial Population Office successfully concluded the second day of its Protecting People and Information Learning and Development Training, focusing on the legal foundations of data privacy and the responsibility of safeguarding personal information in the delivery of public service.

The session on Data Privacy Law was expertly delivered by Atty. Ina Noelene M. Bernales, Supervising Lawyer and Director of the Central Philippine University College of Law Clinical Legal Education Program, who shared valuable legal insights on the importance of data protection, responsible information handling, and compliance with applicable privacy laws.

The session reinforced the principle that protecting personal information is more than a legal obligation—it is a commitment to uphold the rights, dignity, and trust of the people we serve. For public servants entrusted with sensitive population data, understanding and applying data privacy principles is essential to ensuring responsible, transparent, and accountable governance.

As the Iloilo Provincial Population Office continues to strengthen its institutional capacity, this learning initiative underscores the importance of equipping personnel with the knowledge and discipline necessary to protect both the people behind the data and the information entrusted to our care.

Because every piece of personal information represents a person whose privacy deserves to be protected. 🔒

🌿 PROTECTING PEOPLE AND INFORMATION: A SUCCESSFUL FIRST DAY OF LEARNING AND GROWTH

The Iloilo Provincial Population Office successfully concluded the first day of its Protecting People and Information Learning and Development Training, highlighting the importance of mental health and well-being in the workplace.

The session on Mental Health in the Workplace was expertly facilitated by Dr. Shella Marcella P. Villanueva, Project Head of Project KaTUWAng of the University of San Agustin, who shared valuable insights on fostering a healthier, more understanding, and more supportive work environment.

Beyond protecting information, this learning initiative underscores the importance of protecting the people behind the work—recognizing that mental well-being, empathy, and mutual support are essential to a resilient, productive, and service-oriented workforce.

As we continue our commitment to public service, may this successful first day inspire us to build a workplace where people feel valued, supported, and empowered to give their best in serving the people of Iloilo.

Because protecting people is just as important as protecting information. 💚
