CLSU, LGU Licab Forge MOA to Expand TVP in NE
To formalize the implementation of Central Luzon State University’s (CLSU) Technology Village Program (TVP) in the Municipality of Licab, a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signing was held yesterday, March 11, between University President Dr. Evaristo A. Abella and Licab Mayor Eufemia D. Domingo. Along with the University President were Dr. Aldrin Badua, Director of the University Extension Program Office (UEPO), Dr. Emmanuel Vera Cruz, Vice President for Research and Extension, and Assistant Prof. Armando Lagasca, Division Head of the Technology Promotion Division. While Mayor Domingo was joined by Vice Mayor Oliver Villaroman and other officials. Prior to this, President Abella and Dr. Badua visited Licab last January 24, 2025, opening doors for collaboration, particularly in the provision of promotional materials and enterprise development support, and other possible interventions for the LGU. Launched in 2021, TVP is an extension modality of the University designed to transform communities into hubs where CLSU-generated technologies will be utilized to help families attain far-reaching socio-economic development. It was pilot-tested in the Science City of Muñoz and Talavera, Nueva Ecija. Currently, Licab is the eighth municipality in Nueva Ecija to implement the TVP. To date, 110 set-ups have been established with their partner municipalities across Nueva Ecija. By continuously expanding its range in the province, the TVP engages with broader communities to showcase opportunities and promote rural development. Following the MOA signing, LGU officials of Licab also took the opportunity to explore the KAMALIG S&T Agritourism Site. #SievingForExcellence
