Leoraé Valmonte, Regional Director of the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) Region 3, emphasized the importance of higher education in institutions (HEIs) in fostering human rights advocacy in the region. "HEIs are the incubators of human rights consciousness," he stated. In his keynote address, Atty. Richard P. Palpal-Latoc, Chairperson of the CHR, reiterated the importance of institutional partnerships in advancing basic rights education. He highlighted that the CHR’s Human Rights Action Centers (HRACs) serve as vital hubs where theoretical knowledge is transformed into practical action. The Region stands a key player in the fight for human dignity and justice, reaffirming its strong commitment to human rights education to ensure that these are both taught and practiced within academic spaces and beyond.
