I received the invitation letter below on August 22 and I think I should share it with all of you. Let me know if you want to attend the workshop so that I could email the registration form to you. See you.
Dear Friends
Warm greetings!
The Popular Education for Peoples’ Empowerment (PEPE, Inc.), in cooperation with the Office of the Dean of the UP College of Social Sciences and Philosophy (UP-CSSP), would like to invite you and your colleagues to “A Meeting Of Minds: Helping Local Communities Address Bioethical Issues Through Participatory Teaching Methodologies in Basic Education.” The 2-day training workshop will be held on September 16-17, 2009 at the UP Bahay ng Alumni.
The training/workshop for teachers and other stakeholders in the field of education will attempt to bridge the gap between bioethics' concepts and the local issues actually confronted by local communities through participatory approaches to teaching in basic education.
Experts in the fields of community organizing and learning methodologies will present philosophical and methodological principles along with examples of best practices that will lead to workshops among the participants who will in turn share and document their own best practices on how these principles and exemplars can be applied to their surrounding communities.
To help defray the cost of the 2-day workshop (which includes meals and workshop materials), registration fee of P400.00 will be charged. We would appreciate that interested participants accomplish and submit to the training workshop Secretariat c/o Ms. Abby Salacata, the attached registration form on or before September 11, 2009 (Friday) at philo4children@yahoo.com or send it by fax to tel/fax number (02) 426-4473.
Hoping for your positive response, we remain.
Respectfuly yours,
Dr. Rainer Ibana, Professor, Department of Philosophy, Ateneo de Manila University
Mr. Noel Valencia, Executive Director, Popular Education for People's Empowerment(PEPE)
