Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels

The University strives to make positive contributions to society, and to achieve this, it engages with various stakeholders across different sectors. Within the University, all students are given proper representation through student councils, while employees are represented by the employee's union, faculty, and staff organizations.

The Ateneo Center for Education Development, Gawad Kalinga, and the Ateneo Institute of Sustainability are a part of the university's Social Development Cluster, which works directly with regional stakeholders on social development initiatives. This strategy makes sure the university stays actively involved with the larger community and aids in the advancement of constructive social change.
