For several years, Ladlad has sought to win seats in the Philippine Congress in order to fight for the equal rights, equal protection under the law, and state-sponsored support for the advancement and wellbeing of all LGBT Filipinos. By seeking to advance LGBT rights specifically as an LGBT political party within the Philippines’ unique party-list system, Ladlad represents novel realities and future possibilities for both Filipino and global LGBT movements, electoral politics, and human rights advocacy.

Started in 2001, the seven-year pilot project is undertaken with V. Mapa High School, Arellano High School, and G. Perfecto High School. The program has three beneficiaries: the students, the teachers, and the school. A total of 480 students received a complete set of textbooks and school supplies at the start of the school year. Using curriculum, materials, and learning activities similar to those used in Lasallian high schools, the students are also trained in the following subject areas: Science, Mathematics, English, Filipino, and Social Studies. Aside from getting an enriched curriculum derived from Lasallian high schools, the public schools have also benefited from improved facilities. This school year, each of the three schools received a science lab and multimedia learning resources. At the same time, 60 teachers, or 20 from each school, have been given the opportunity to apply for scholarship for a Master’s degree at DLSU-M. They also receive regular in-service teacher training programs to improve their teaching competencies. Furthermore, they receive peer coaching and peer tutoring training to enable them to become effective trainers of their co-teachers.

  • Our Lady of Remedies Parish Fiesta 2020
    Our Lady of Remedies Parish Fiesta 2020 “Maria, tagapagbuklod ng mga pamayanang magkakaiba ng pinagmulan, kalinangan at paniniwala.” November 15, 2020 Malate Catholic Church Malate, Manila 2 MESSAGE Auxiliary Bishop of Manila I join the Parish of Our Lady of Remedies on the celebration of its annual fiesta. The pandemic and the lockdown do not prevent us from celebrating our faith and expressing our devotion to Our Blessed Lady. We may tone down our activities and even change some of our traditional celebrations, but we continue to foster and develop our filial devotion to the Blessed Virgin. All the more in this health and economic crisis we cling to Mama Mary. She is really Our Lady of Remedies. Her prayers will implore the Lord God to lead us to remedies in our sorry state. As we cling to Mary, let us also reach out to her other children that are more in need. God will help not only those who help themselves but those who help others. Our readiness to share, even the little that we have, will make us ready to receive heavenly blessings. In the matter of giving and generosity, the ones who benefit are not only the receivers but most especially the givers. As the Scripture says, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” (Acts 20:35) Happy fiesta to the parishioners of our Lady of Remedies! God bless you all and more power to you! + Most Rev. Broderick S, Pabillo, DD Apostolic Administrator of the Archdiocese of Manila November 2020 3 MESSAGE Our Lady of Remedies Parish In December 2019, the outbreak of Covid 19 virus was identified.
