The Madaris Volunteer Program and Al Qalam Institute (MVP-AQI) attended the 2022 Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund (GCERF) National Community of Practice entitled \u201c<\/span>Voices of Resilience: Building Peaceful Communities\u201d <\/span><\/i>last October 25-27, 2022 at New World Hotel, Makati City.<\/span><\/p>\n The Madaris Volunteer Program-Al Qalam Institute is one of the convenors of the Community of Practice (CoP) on Education together with the Teach Peace Build Peace Movement (TPBPM). As co-convenor, MVP-AQI led a series of pre-CoP meetings to discuss the updates, challenges, and ways forward of the CoP. During the National CoP event, the CoP on Education, the MVP-AQI, together with TPBPM and the other member organizations, commit to working together to make learning spaces as zones of peace that <\/span>promote a culture of dialogue and respect, healing and reconciliation, and understanding. The CoP members will also be working together towards building a culture of peace in schools, communities, and our country.<\/span><\/p>\n Mr. Khevin Pepito, a Madaris Volunteer Program Volunteer Teacher in Batch 7, shared his volunteer and immersion experience while he was deployed in Tawi-Tawi. He shared how his fear of being deployed in a Muslim community transformed into acceptance, friendship, and love in the arms of his Muslim\u00a0<\/span>brothers and sisters. Gone is the fear and prejudice of the past, thanks to his meaningful and formative encounters with the people of Tawi-Tawi. Each organization also showcased the unique features and stories of its project supported by the GCERF.<\/span><\/p>\n The National Community of practice events was capped with a declaration and signing of commitment.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.0.11″ locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.11″][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”7588,7587,7583″ show_title_and_caption=”off” _builder_version=”4.0.11″ custom_padding=”50px||||false|false”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Madaris Volunteer Program and Al Qalam Institute (MVP-AQI) attended the 2022 Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund (GCERF) National Community of Practice entitled \u201cVoices of Resilience: Building Peaceful Communities\u201d last October 25-27, 2022 at New World Hotel, Makati City.
