“In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.” - Phil Collins 🧑‍🏫🎒

The Political Science Forum successfully conducted its Community Development Project at the Buga Elementary School in Hagonoy, Bulacan, last April 12, 2026, entitled A-BarKaDa Sa Pag-Basa: Paglinang ng Kasanayan Tungo sa Mas Matatag na Kaalaman. 📖📚

The event highlights the reading enhancement of the grade school learners of the community, and as part of the event's culmination, the Forum extended its support by donating books, reading materials, and school supplies for the learners of the School as they build their library resources.

The Forum hopes that this event helped the community address its problem through the means offered by the organization.

Para sa Kabataan at Kasanayan sa Pagbabasa! 📚✊
