𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐍𝐎𝐖 📣 | Participants gather for the second day of the Inclusive Infrastructure Training, organized by the Gender Equity, Diversity, and Social Inclusion Office (GEDSIO) in partnership with Life Haven Center for Independent Living at the Quality Assurance Center.

Today's sessions begin with a recap of the key learnings and insights from the first day through a fun activity, followed by further discussions on accessibility laws and their role in promoting disability-inclusive spaces. Later this afternoon, the event will also hold an accessibility assessment of the University Library's entrance and comfort room facilities to evaluate whether these areas adequately meet the needs of persons with disabilities (PWDs) and identify opportunities for improvement.

As the training concludes, this initiative highlights the ongoing efforts to promote accessibility, uphold inclusivity, and foster an environment where everyone can participate and thrive with dignity and equal opportunity. 🧡💜

In celebration of Pride Month 2026, the PUP Gender Equity, Diversity, and Social Inclusion Office, together with various student organizations, have prepared a series of events and activities that aim to celebrate diversity, promote inclusion, and honor the experiences and contributions of the LGBTQIA+ community. Through educational, creative, and community-centered initiatives, these activities seek to foster a campus environment where everyone is respected, valued, and empowered to be their authentic selves.

Throughout June, join us as we come together to learn, connect, and celebrate the many colors that make up our community. The celebration will continue into July, highlighting self-expression, creativity, and pride.

We warmly invite everyone to take part in these activities and stand with us in building a more inclusive, equitable, and affirming community for all. 🌈✨
