Patricia Evangelista is coming to Ateneo de Manila University on 12 April 2024 for a book talk on her critically-acclaimed book, "Some People Need Killing: A Memoir of Murder in My Country."
[Blueboard] Reflecting on gender equality and an inclusive society
[Blueboard] "So how should we reflect on gender equality and an inclusive society in the country?"
[Blueboard] Marcos foreign policy should embrace middle power identity
[Blueboard] "The president must recognize that the Philippines has evolved into a middle power, occupying a favorable geopolitical and economic position in Asia between the great powers with their preponderant aims and the weaker nation-states that lack influence in global affairs."
[Blueboard] The real score in Philippines-China relations
[Blueboard] "The interest in how President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. will build on the gains made by his predecessor’s recalibrated approach to China and how to move the relationship forward dominated public conversations and debates before and after the May 2022 national elections."
[Blueboard] Education recovery beyond face-to-face resumption
[Blueboard] "Where does post-pandemic education recovery lie in President Marcos Jr.’s priority measures?"
[Blueboard] Interrogating ‘change’ and the institutions behind it
[Blueboard] "[In] interrogating change and understanding why change can be difficult to meet, one must look further than formal laws and policies, and adopt a more holistic view of institutions that impact day to day life."
