We proudly congratulate Sheikh Clyde Manalo, Secretary-General of NU Clark Model United Nations for presenting his research at the International Conference of the Philippine Political Science Association held at Silliman University under the theme, โDemocracy: Navigating the Tensions of Unity and Division.โ His participation in one of the countryโs premier Political Science research conferences reflects the growing academic excellence and research engagement of NU Clark student leaders in national scholarly spaces.
Through his paper, โChild Representatives in Philippine Local Governance: Agency, Adultism, and Substantive Representation,โ Manalo examined the realities of child participation within local governance structures and highlighted the institutional challenges that limit substantive representation.
His work exemplifies the values upheld by the NU Clark MUN community โ critical inquiry, meaningful discourse, and leadership grounded in public service, public policy, and democratic engagement.
