ILOILO CITY — The University of Antique (UA) Main Campus and St. Anthony’s College (SAC) represented the province of Antique in the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) Region VI PelikulAgraryo 2026 held at the West Visayas State University (WVSU) Main Campus in La Paz, Iloilo City on October 6, 2026.

PelikulAgraryo is a platform that allows tertiary students to tell stories about the realities, experiences, and struggles of agrarian reform communities through film.

With the theme, “Tinig ng Lupang Malaya: Kwento at Aral-Agraryo Butil na Pamana sa Kabataan,” UA featured the story of Arturo Bacruya, while SAC presented the story of the Sto. Rosario Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Association, Inc. (STARBA).

SAC’s film, “Hibla ng Pagbangon,” competed in the Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Organization (ARBO) Category and received the Jury Award for Community Stewardship.

Pepito Favillara Roldan Jr., on behalf of The 1985 Collectives, shared his experience of telling the story of STARBA.

“We are truly honored to represent STARBA and showcase their stories despite lacking proper equipment and being beginners. Despite all odds, it is a pleasure to represent the Antiqueño agrarian reform beneficiaries organization,” Roldan said.

He also shared that PelikulAgraryo 2026 was one of his best experiences, emphasizing the importance of raising awareness about the realities of agrarian reform in the community.

“This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. It not only enhanced my filmmaking skills but also helped raise awareness about the agrarian community and the welfare of agrarian reform beneficiaries,” he added.

Meanwhile, UA’s film “UGA” featuring Charles Daniel Vedija in the ARB Category earned the Best Actor Award and received ₱15,000 for his performance.

“I'm really grateful and humbled to receive the Best Actor Award for PelikulAgraryo 2026. Being part of this film was such a meaningful experience for me. It gave me the chance to tell a story that highlights the lives and struggles of our farmers, and that's something I'm truly proud to be part of,” Vedija expressed.

DAR Secretary Conrado Estrella III emphasized the importance of helping young people and the public understand the significance of the government’s agrarian reform program.

“Gusto natin na maintindihan ng mga kabataan at ng ating mga taong bayan ang kagandahan ng programa ng Department of Agrarian Reform, na hindi lang sa pamimigay ng lupa, kundi libreng lupa na wala nang utang para sa ating mga magsasaka,” Estrella said.

Also present during the event was Jose Jenil C. Demorito, DAR Assistant Secretary for External Affairs and Communications Operations Office (EACOO) who applauded the filmmakers for their passion in creating films that represent the voices of the farmers in Western Visayas.

Through PelikulAgraryo, students are given an opportunity to showcase the stories of struggles, resilience, and contributions of ARBs to the country’s agriculture.

The event was attended by DAR officials, including Undersecretary Josef Angelo S. Martires, Undersecretary for the Support to Operations (SSO); Undersecretary Jesry T. Palmares, Undersecretary for the Field Operations Service and Program Operations (FASPO); Undersecretary Atty. Kazel Celeste, Undersecretary for Field Operations Office (FOO); Undersecretary Rowena Niña O.

SAN JOSE, Antique — The Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) Provincial Office of Antique strengthened its commitment to quality public service as selected personnel completed the two-day Internal Quality Audit (IQA) Training on September 30 to October 1, 2026.

The training developed a new pool of Internal Quality Auditors who will help ensure that the provincial office's processes remain compliant with its established Quality Management System (QMS) and the requirements of ISO 9001:2015.

The activity comes as DAR Antique continues another milestone in its QMS journey, having secured its ISO 9001:2015 certification for the three-year period 2026–2029. The renewed certification underscores the provincial office's continuing efforts to maintain established standards, continually improve its processes, and deliver quality services to agrarian reform beneficiaries and other stakeholders.

In her message during the training, OIC-Provincial Agrarian Reform Program Officer II Geralyn E. Cañas emphasized the role of internal auditing in maintaining the integrity and effectiveness of the agency’s QMS.

“The Internal Quality Audit is established to verify whether our QMS conforms with ISO standards. As government employees, we are expected to deliver the highest forms of service in government,” Cañas said.

On the first day, the participants revisited the fundamentals of the Quality Management System and the intended results of an effective QMS. Discussions covered the ISO 9001:2015 requirements under Clauses 4 to 10, the Seven Quality Management Principles, the challenges and responsibilities of auditors, and the role of internal audits in driving continual improvement.

The participants subsequently underwent a workshop on Understanding Requirements through the Management Principles, where they applied the ISO requirements and quality management principles to actual organizational processes.

The second day focused on the practical aspects of conducting an internal quality audit, covering audit planning and preparation, document review, checklist preparation, and the conduct of audits involving core, support, and internal audit processes.

Participants were divided into groups for a Checklist Preparation Workshop, where they developed appropriate audit questions based on assigned processes and corresponding ISO 9001:2015 requirements.

The training culminated in an examination designed to assess the participants' understanding of the concepts, requirements, and procedures discussed during the two-day activity and determine their competence as prospective Internal Quality Auditors.
