IN PHOTOS | Tiwi Community College is taking a proactive step towards creating a safer and more inclusive learning environment. On December 10, 2025, TCC hosted a seminar on the Anti-Sexual Harassment Act and Safe Spaces Act at the Tiwi Gymnasium, Tiwi, Albay.

The seminar was divided into two batches: the first batch ran from 8:00-12:00, covering BSOA 1A-1J, BEED 1A, and BSED MATH 1, while the second batch ran from 1:00-5:00, covering BSOA 1K-1P, BTVTED, BS ENTREP, BSED FILIPINO, BSED SCIENCE, and BSED ENGLISH 1A & 1B.

The event began with an invocation followed by a lecture on the Anti-Sexual Harassment Act and Safe Spaces Act, where Ma'am Merle T. Lomibao, former MGDH 1 HRMO Tiwi, emphasized the importance of the seminar, highlighting the colleges' commitment to a safe learning environment. The seminar aimed to educate faculty on their legal and ethical responsibilities in creating respectful educational spaces.

She elaborated the concept of sexual harassment which is an issue of power, law, and gender, affecting individuals from diverse backgrounds, nationalities, and social classes. It is defined as unwelcome, unwanted, or unsolicited sexual advances or favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature.

"Understanding the nature of sexual harassment is crucial in creating a safe and inclusive space," she said.

The seminar also covered key features of the Laws, including RA 7877, CSC Reso No. 01-0940, and RA 11313, which outline duties and penalties for non-compliance.

The activity was conducted in coordination with the LGU-Tiwi GAD (Local Government Unit-Gender and Development).

This initiative is a testament to Tiwi Community College's dedication to promoting a culture of respect, safety, and inclusivity within the institution. The college is committed to providing a secure and supportive environment for all students, faculty, and staff, and will continue to implement policies and programs that promote gender equality and prevent sexual harassment.

At last, you're here, December!

Your very first day brought a cold breeze to the uncovered skin, songs and hums in silent halls of ears, genuine smile to a dry lips, and excitement to exhausted limbs.

You made it to December, the month with chilling breezes but with the warmest comfort and hope for everyone. We have worked hard to come this far; we encountered a lot, so rest for a while; and we waited so long to celebrate again.

May you have a genuinely contented heart this month. May you start this month with a soft smile and kind gestures towards your neighbors.

Welcome happiness. Welcome, December!
