In a society where the truth is being twisted to achieve harmful propaganda, the world stands united in observing World Press Freedom Day. Today, May 3, 2026, the world celebrates a fundamental right that continues to be threatened, with the theme: “Shaping a Future at Peace: Promoting Press Freedom for Human Rights, Development, and Security.” On this day, the people around the globe defy falsity.
The UPLB Chemical Kinetics Society strongly disproves any kind of harassment towards the media. We are for a world in which voices speak out without intimidation, where truth is preserved, and where dialogue prevails rather than conflict. We stand with the Filipinos, we stand with the oppressed, we stand against those who silence us.
Defend! Defend! Defend Press Freedom!
