Served as a Resource Speaker during the Capacity Building on Gender and Development (GAD) Program Implementation organized by the Department of Education, Schools Division of Cagayan de Oro City. Her lecture on the Safe Spaces Act (Republic Act No. 11313) provided school heads and teachers with essential knowledge on creating gender-sensitive and harassment-free learning environments.
