Liceo Signs Memorandum of Agreement with Life Project for Youth

   The Liceo de Cagayan University entered  into an agreement with the Life Project for Youth which is an international organization founded in the Philippines. The Life Project for Youth (LP4Y) is a non-government organization located at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, Barangay Carmen, Cagayan de Oro City. Its mission is to socially and professionally integrate the excluded youth of Cagayan de Oro. The LP4Y Alliance is a group of autonomous humanitarian organizations sharing LP4Y's project. They are located not just in the Philippines, but also in Vietnam, Indonesia, India, Belgium, the United States of America, France and Luxembourg. The LP4Y Alliance brings together those who wish to work for the integration of excluded youth and it seeks to find an institution to help their youth in terms of English Proficiency and Computer Literacy. Thus, Liceo de Cagayan University was chosen as their partner to deliver the services they needed. As a partner, the university will provide trainers to conduct the English Proficiency and Computer Literacy programs.

   Dr. Lesley C. Lubos, Vice President for Research, Publication, and Extension, led the signing of the memorandum of agreement last May 24, 2017 at NAC203, together with Dr. Felsa A. Labis, Director for Liceo Center for Community Development, Mrs. Prenelei P. Vaquez, Assistant Director for Liceo Center for Community Development, Mr. Marco Rado, Faculty of the College of Information Technology, and Mr. Ramon A. Abrera Jr., OIC Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. The representatives of the project were Mr. Alexandre Nicolet and Ms. Maïlys Nicolet, the Coaches of the Life Project for Youth, and the 12 youths from LP4Y. After the program, the LP4Y Youth together with their coaches toured Liceo U campus and visited the classrooms, Computer Laboratories, and the Speech Enhancement Center.
