UAP Ligao Chapter

The United Architects of the Philippines (UAP) Ligao Chapter held its Planning Session 2026–2027 last May 30, 2026, at the MLSV Compound in Polangui, Albay. The event gathered chapter officers, committee directors, and members in a collaborative atmosphere guided by the theme, "Design Vision. Building Legacy. Strengthening Service.”

The session featured meaningful discussions and presentations of flagship community projects.

Incoming Secretary, Ar. Lee Emerson Reola, introduced “Proyektong Gabay”, a mentorship initiative designed to guide and empower aspiring architects.

Meanwhile, Incoming President, Ar. Ma. Lourdes Saquido-Velasco, also presented “Jet Matic Deep Well: Flow of Unity and Hope in the Barangay,” a community-centered project aimed at providing sustainable access to clean water while symbolizing unity and hope.

With the support of partners such as Davies Paint Philippines Inc., the planning session not only set the chapter’s direction for the year but also reaffirmed its commitment to professional excellence, mentorship, and service to the community. The event stood as a testament to the architects’ shared vision of building legacies that uplift both the profession and society.
