The DLSU-D School of Governance, Public Service and Corporate Leadership held the graduation of 74 barangay leaders who completed the Barangay Leadership: Ethics, Accountability, and Development (B-LEAD) and Barangay Governance for Resilient Environment (B-GREEN) executive program.
According to University Provost Dr. Christian George Francisco, the success of the programs has inspired the university to consider an undergraduate program on sustainability to help more aspiring public officials to understand sustainable leadership concepts for better planning and policymaking in the grassroots level.
Graduate representatives Hon. Eduardo Tibayan Jr. PhD, Hon. Isaias Villanueva, LPT credited the program for their better understanding of their important role in the barangay while B-GREEN resource person Mr. Patrick A. Pepa, RN, LPT paid tribute to the dedication of the SGPSCL team lead by Dr. Rommel Mazo and volunteer professors which contributed to the success of the program. Hon.
