CMC Holds UMMAH Para sa Kalinaw Stakeholders’ Forum to Promote Multiculturalism and Inclusivity

Central Mindanao Colleges (CMC), recently organized a stakeholders’ forum titled “UMMAH Para sa Kalinaw: Madaris Education Extension Project Stakeholders’ Forum” on March 3, 2023, at 1:30 PM, CMC Building 9.

The event was attended by various stakeholders of the institution and was led by the College of Teacher Education (CTE), Center for Social Action (CSA), and the Center for International Affairs and Linkages (CIAL).

The primary objective of the forum was to create student organizations for minority groups within the CMCian community, promote peace education, and engage internal and external stakeholders in safe dialogues within the City of Kidapawan.

The forum served as an avenue for participants to contribute to the creation of frameworks and policies that will facilitate the organization of student associations and the development of sustainable, relevant, and timely projects that will benefit the larger community. These initiatives will eventually become inclusive community extension programs for the institution.

As a non-sectarian academic institution that embraces multiculturalism, diversity, and inclusivity, CMC recognizes the importance of promoting and upholding the rights of minority groups, such as Muslims and Indigenous Peoples in Mindanao, both within and outside the school.

The forum was successful in establishing a safe and inclusive space for the CMCian community to discuss and address the needs of minority groups.

With the frameworks and policies established during the forum, CMC is now better equipped to provide sustainable support to these groups and ensure that their voices are heard and their rights are protected. The institution is committed to pursuing interventions that address the needs of its stakeholders through its Instruction, Research, and Community Engagement.
