The Sine Niña Girls' Rights Workshop Through Film and Music was successfully held in Tagbilaran City, bringing together young people for a meaningful day of learning, creativity, and dialogue through the power of film and music. 🎬
Anchored on the Sine Niña docufilm—funded by the Sony Global Justice Fund—the workshop created a safe and empowering space for participants to explore girls' rights, gender equality, leadership, and self-expression. Through the panel discussion that followed the film showing and music workshop, participants were encouraged to share their stories, celebrate their voices, and recognize their role in building more inclusive communities.
The event featured inspiring messages from Hon. Jane Censoria Cajes-Yap, Mayor of Tagbilaran City; Engr. Gemma Inting, City Councilor of the Local Government of Tagbilaran City; and Dr. Del Mark A. Cagatin, PhD, JD, College Administrator of Tagbilaran City College.
We are grateful to our panelists, Dr. Karina Mae A. Uy-Bucoy, RPsy, RGC, PhD, Assistant Department Head of the Human Resource Management and Development Office of the Local Government of Tagbilaran City, and Larsine Grace Jensen, Mutya sa Tagbilaran 2026, for sharing their valuable insights and helping create meaningful conversations on girls’ rights, empowerment, and youth leadership.
We also extend our appreciation to Jolianne Salvado, artist from Careless Music Manila and Sony Music Philippines Inc., for sharing her talent and inspiring participants through the power of music and self-expression.
This initiative was made possible through the support of Sony Music Philippines Inc., the Local Government of Tagbilaran City, Tagbilaran City College for its invaluable partnership, and Holy Name University for generously hosting the venue.
Together with our partners and community of advocates, we continue to create spaces where young people can learn, express themselves, and recognize their power to shape a more inclusive and equitable future.
Because every girl deserves the space to be heard—and the opportunity to shape her future. 💜🩷💛
