Provolve Skills Bridge Inc. strongly and unequivocally condemns the reported shooting at Ateneo de Zamboanga University this morning, a tragic incident in which a high school student is both the suspect and the victim.
We express our deepest concern and sympathy to the students, faculty, staff, families, and the entire AdZU community. Schools must remain safe sanctuaries where young people can learn, grow, and pursue their dreams without fear. This heinous act must never be tolerated or normalized.
We urge authorities to conduct a swift, thorough, and transparent investigation, ensure accountability, and implement measures to prevent future tragedies.
Crucially, we emphasize that individual actions must not be conflated with religion. The faults of an individual must not drag Islam, Christianity, or any other faith into this serious crisis. We must refrain from weaponizing religion and act with responsibility.
Furthermore, we call on educational institutions to reinforce security, establish early-intervention systems, and provide robust psychosocial and mental health support. Protecting our youth is a shared responsibility.
We appeal to parents, educators, and communities to foster environments where young people feel safe to voice their struggles. Standing in solidarity with the AdZU community, we call on everyone to reject violence, uphold the sanctity of life, and work toward peaceful learning environments.
