Education transforms concrete lives: this was the heart of Secretary Joel Villanueva’s speech at the Gawad Kalinga’s Social Business Summit 2014 in the famous Enchanted Farm. Sec Joel was one of the keynote speakers of the summit’s afternoon session along with Sen. Pia Cayateno, and CHED Chairperson Patricia Licuanan.

“Our experience with GK, with the countless hours of meetings we spent together, and even in attending fora, gave us an important insight: our training programs should be developed with the youth, rather than for the youth.

"I believe the power of youth, when channeled to productive activities, can change the world. What can we do to help them make the difference? It’s simple: Let’s engage them.” 

“Sa TESDA, may choice ka.” – SECRETARY JOEL VILLANUEVA
