2007 Peace and Equity Foundation (PEF) Poverty Map Creative Writing and Photo Essay Contest

October 9, 2007 · Filed Under Advocacies, College Life and DLSU

Yesterday our CONADEV (Contemporary National Development) professor informed us about this contest where all Filipino citizens aged 18-25 years old who are enrolled in any Higher Education Institution are invited to participate.

The Peace and Equity Foundation (PEF) works with several civil society organizations to empower the poor and marginalized communities in the Philippines. The contest is part of its campaigns to create awareness and educate the Filipino youth on the real poverty situation of their fellowmen. The submitted entries will be used by the organization to generate people’s interest in the PEF poverty reduction programs. The entries would be used in the 2007 Social Development week celebrations in December at the Glorietta Activity Center in Makati.

“Mga Kulay ng Kahirapan, Hamon ng Kinabukasan” is the contest’s theme which aims to show the different faces of poverty in the Philippines.
