In celebration of September considered in the Rotary Calendar as the New Generation Month, the Rotary Club of Waling-Waling Davao and its partner in service, Davao City Water District, will host a Peace Forum for the Youth on September 21, 2012, from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Audio Visual Room of the University of Mindanao Bolton Campus.
The half-day Peace Forum for the Youth is intended to introduce to college students the different dimensions of the peace process in Mindanao – the reasons for conflict, the initiatives/activities done by all sectors, and possible contribution from the youth.
It is hoped that by raising their awareness, the participants may be able to build understanding and actively participate in the peace process.
The resource speaker will be peace advocate and former cabinet secretary lawyer Jesus Dureza who will talk on the “Role of the Youth in Promoting Peace in Mindanao.”
Expected attendees are the different Rotary sponsored Rotaract clubs of Rotary International District 3860 headed by RC Waling-Waling’s Rotaract Club of Mindanao Kokusai Daigaku and Interact Club of University of Immaculate Conception.
These community and school based clubs are active in every Rotary activity..
The Rotary Club of Waling-Waling Davao hopes that the forum will help in promoting Rotary International 2012-2013 objective under the theme: Peace Through Service.
