Haïti : Des journalistes formés et sensibilisés sur le phénomène de la désinformation
Environ une dizaine de journalistes ont reçu une formation sur le phénomène de la désinformation organisé par l’entreprise Papyrus au Complexe Lafayette, les 30 septembre et 1er octobre 2024. Dans ce contexte marqué par la prolifération continue des médias et réseaux sociaux, la désinformation est devenue un phénomène courant à travers le monde. Des groupes et même des leaders diffusent…
The UP College of Social Sciences and Philosophy (CSSP) Folklore Studies Program, under its Kadunong Lecture Series, hosted Dr. Anril Tiatco’s lecture, “Ang Santacruzan sa Buwan ng Mayo: Panata at Mito sa Bawat Hakbang sa Paghanananap ng Banal na Krus nina Reyna Elena at Prinsipe Konstantino.”
Dr. Tiatco discussed findings from his fieldwork experiences on the Santacruzan in Batangas, Bulacan, Laguna, Pampanga, and Quezon, and at the Municipality of Pateros with team members Dr. Jem R. Javier (Linguistics) and Assistant Professors Madilene Bereña Landicho (Anthropology) and Popo Tabao Amascual (Theatre Arts).
Dr. Tiatco is a UP professor of performance studies who earned his Ph.D. from the National University of Singapore. He was a visiting scholar at the Research Institute for Cosmopolitan Cultures at the University of Manchester. UP conferred upon him the title of University Artist (UP Artist II) under the UP Artist Productivity System Award. He received a Carlos Palanca Award for Full-Length Play (2009) and the Department of Science and Technology-National Research Council of the Philippines (DOST-NRCP) Achievement Award for the Humanities (2021).
He is slated to leave for New York as one of this year’s Asian Cultural Council's Global Grant Cycle awardees. For six months, he will undergo training in dramaturgy through an apprenticeship while learning the latest trends in dramaturgical practice through workshops, forums, and one-on-one interviews with Broadway, and Off-Broadway dramaturgs.
Retired UP Diliman Philosophy Professor and former Chair Leonardo (Leo) D. De Castro, Ph.D. has passed. He was the 4th UP System Office of Alumni Relations (OAR) Director from 1984 to 1989 under President Edgardo J. Angara.
Dr. de Castro had a distinguished career as a Senior Research Fellow and Head of the Program for Capacity Development in Biomedical Ethics at the Center for Biomedical Ethics, National University of Singapore (NUS). He was also Editor-in-Chief of the Asian Bioethics Review.
He chaired the Philippine Health Research Ethics Board, a national body that sets policies and regulates research ethics committees in the country. He sat on the National Ethics Committee and served on the National Bioethics Advisory Committee and the National Transplant Ethics Committee. He was President of the Asian Bioethics Association, Vice-Chair of the UNESCO International Bioethics Committee, Vice-Chair of the Forum for Ethics Review Committees in Asia and the Pacific, and a Bioethics Consultant to the United Nations, the World Health Organization, the European Union, and the European Commission. He represented the Philippines in the UNESCO Inter-Governmental Bioethics Committee.
Dr. de Castro authored and lectured extensively on research ethics, responsible conduct of research, bioethics teaching, organ transplantation, healthcare worker migration, and resource allocation. Some of his important works are: “Commodification and exploitation: Arguments in favour of compensated organ donation,” Journal of Medical Ethics, 29 (2003); “The Ethics of Organ Transplantation: Shortages and Strategies.” Annals Academy of Medicine Singapore (2009) and “The Paradigm of Living, Related Donation: Stretched, Strained and Abused?” Akira Akabayashi, ed. The Future of Bioethics: International Dialogues. Oxford: Oxford University Press (2014). He received the Takashi Fujii Prize for Originality in Social Science Research from the International Federation of Social Science Organizations. Later, he was named recipient of the UP Centennial Professorial Chair. His book Pagkatao at Teknolohiya: Mga isyu ng etika sa makabagong medisina (UP Sentro ng Wikang Filipino, 1998) garnered the National Book Award from the Manila Critics Circle, the UP Diliman Gawad Tsanselor and the Outstanding Monograph Award from the National Academy of Science and Technology (NAST).
His close friends include the late UP Professors and university administrators Martin V. Gregorio (European Languages) and Oscar L. Evangelista (History).
Dr. De Castro's wake will be held at the Chapel of Fortuna in Aeternitas, beside St. Peter Parish along Commonwealth Ave., Quezon City. The viewing hours are from 4 pm to 10 pm on Monday (May 13) and from 10 am to 10 pm on Tuesday and Wednesday (May 14 and 15). A daily mass will also be conducted at 7 pm.
