Reminiscence: Lakbay Aral 2007













Lakbay-Aral, a Filipino term literally translated as "travel-study", is a program that seeks to provide people concern with an opportunity to learn more through experiencing and by observing life in other places. 




The participants are expected to gain better understanding of the places they went into and its people, and greater awareness and appreciation of how Filipino communities struggle to better their lives. 











The experience will hopefully instill 
and preserve a sense of 
national pride among the participants,
 compare developments 
between their locality with other
 places, observe other Filipino 
cultures that may serve as 
catalyst in the participants’
 work and duties as elected
 public officials and public
 employees.
