SUMMARY:Notes for Tomorrow Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Notes for Tomorrow\nIn collaboration with Independent Curators International (ICI)\n\n16 December 2025 to 07 March 2026\nUP Vargas Museum 1/F Galleries\nExhibition preview on 16 December 2025\, 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM\nat the UP Vargas Museum\, West Wing Gallery\n\n‘Notes for Tomorrow’ features artworks from around the world brought together in 2020 to reflect on a new global reality ushered in by the COVID-19 pandemic. Coming out of a moment where collective crisis had to be managed through collective care\, Independent Curators International (ICI) turned to 30 curators from 25 countries to consider the issues that have come to the fore in the pandemic’s aftermath\, asking each of them to share one artwork that they believe is vital to be seen today.\n\nThe UP Vargas Museum hosts the exhibition’s first iteration in Southeast Asia\, opening on 16 December 2025\, bringing together works across various geographies\, narratives\, and disciplines that stray from the colonial canon. The selected artists present works that question monumentality and seek the wisdom of localities. In this necessary moment of cultural transition\, each work acts as a source of inspiration from the recent past toward new futures. Rather than proposing a single path forward\, the artworks in Notes for Tomorrow present a network of overlapping solutions.\n\n___\n\nArtists of ‘Notes for Tomorrow’: Madiha Aijaz\, Ernesto Bautista\, Maeve Brennan\, Vajiko Chachkhiani\, Luke Luokun Cheng\, A Liberated Library for Education\, Inspiration\, and Action\, Nothando Chiwanga\, Shezad Dawood\, Demian DinéYazhi’\, Cao Guimarães\, Ilana Harris-Babou\, Rei Hayama\, Amrita Hepi\, INVASORIX\, Tamás Kaszás\, Ali Kazma\, David Lozano\, Mona Marzouk\, Joiri Minaya\, Peter Morin\, Omehen\, Daniela Ortiz\, Kristina Kay Robinson\, Luiz Roque\, Mark Salvatus\, Ibrahima Thiam\, u/n multitude\, Wayne Kaumualii Westlake\, and Yan Shi\n\nSource: UP Vargas Museum Facebook

SUMMARY:Health Updates Webinar #269 "Mag-Screen Para Ma-Prevent\, Prepare\, at Protect ang Ating Mga Bata"
DESCRIPTION:The University of the Philippines\,\nin partnership with the UP Manila – National Institutes of Health\,\nand in cooperation with UP Philippine General Hospital and UP College of Medicine\,\nwould like to invite you to attend this webinar! \n  \nRegistration slots are limited to this HEALTH UPDATES webinar\nSo sign up NOW:\nbit.ly/HealthUpdatesWebinar269 \n  \nWebinar #269\nJanuary 16\, 2025 (Friday)\, 12:00 noon\nMag-Screen Para Ma-Prevent\, Prepare\, at Protect ang Ating Mga Bata\n\nPresenter:\nDR. CECILIA D. ALINEA\nChief\, Division of General Pediatrics\nVice Chair for Academics\nUP – PGH Department of Pediatrics\n\nReactor:\nDR. BENJAMIN P. SABLAN\, JR.\nChief\, Division of Ambulatory Pediatrics\nUP – PGH Department of Pediatrics\n\n———————————————————–\n\nWebinar #269\nJanuary 16\, 2025 (Friday)\, 12:00 noon\nMag-Screen Para Ma-Prevent\, Prepare\, at Protect ang Ating Mga Bata\n\nThe landscape of pediatric healthcare in the Philippines is currently undergoing a transformative shift by moving away from a traditional reactive model toward a comprehensive\, proactive paradigm centered on longitudinal wellness and early intervention. As we navigate the complexities of 2026\, the operationalization of Universal Health Care and the integration of the First 1\,000 Days Law have necessitated a more rigorous\, evidence-based approach to pediatric clinical surveillance.\n\nAnticipatory guidance is no longer merely a set of cursory recommendations but has evolved into a sophisticated framework of clinical counseling designed to mitigate developmental\, nutritional\, and behavioral morbidities before they manifest clinically. In this week’s episode\, our distinguished panel of speakers will discuss the latest strategies in neurodevelopmental monitoring and nutritional security\, particularly in the context of addressing the national challenge of childhood stunting and the evolving epidemiological profile of vaccine-preventable diseases. We will also try to address the significant technological and administrative advancements in pediatric screening. We will explore the expanded newborn screening (ENBS) ecosystem\, which now encompasses a broader spectrum of metabolic and genetic disorders\, and examine the recently updated Department of Health and Department of Education protocols for school-based health assessments. These updates include the integration of universal mental health and psychosocial screenings\, recognizing that psychological well-being is intrinsically linked to physiological health.\n\nOur main speaker is Dr. Cecilia D. Alinea\, who is the Chief of the Division of General Pediatrics and Vice Chair for Academics at the UP – PGH Department of Pediatrics. Our reactor is Dr. Benjamin P. Sablan\, Jr.\, who is the Chief of the Division of Ambulatory Pediatrics at the UP – PGH Department of Pediatrics.\n\nJoin us as we learn how to contribute to the collective goal of safeguarding the health of the Filipino child. Together\, we can stop preventable deaths!

SUMMARY:#YamangKalawakan in Action: Building Climate Resilience through Space-enabled Analytics
DESCRIPTION:Join the UPISC for its first webinar for 2026 entitled “#YamangKalawakan in Action: Building Climate Resilience through Space-enabled Analytics” with Dr. Gay Jane Perez\, Deputy Director General for Space Science and Technology at the Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA).\nSatellite technology and remote sensing are essential tools for disaster monitoring and management\, especially as climate change intensifies the disaster risks in the country. These technologies are increasingly being supported by artificial intelligence (AI) in select geospatial application.\n\nIn this talk\, Dr. Perez will introduce Yamang Kalawakan\, the Philippine space ecosystem\, highlighting how it transforms space-derived data into actionable intelligence to aid disaster risk reduction and management. She will discuss how PhilSA utilizes Earth observation satellites and data-sharing mechanisms to aid hazard monitoring\, early warning\, damage assessment and recovery. Several use cases on how satellite-based information enables timely and data-informed interventions will also be explored. She will also highlight the application of AI-driven geospatial analysis in environmental monitoring to support ecosystem protection and long-term resilience.\n\n🗓 Date: 16 January 2026 (Friday)\n🕒 Time: 2:00 PM PHT\n💻 Via Zoom\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Attendees will receive a certificate of participation after the completion of the evaluation form at the end of the webinar.\n\nRegistration Link: https://forms.gle/J6NBVqYrMWJG8b2v9\n\nSource: University of the Philippines Intelligent Systems Center Facebook
