Hinablon Sa Cebu: A Community Extension Project of Cebu Technological University

From a research endeavor in 2013 to a Viable Demonstration Project at present, Cebu Technological University's mission of reviving a once dying cultural tradition and economic activity for the town of Argao continues to grapple with challenges of serving the community even with disruptions like the COVID-19 pandemic. The vision of a genuine social enterprise can only be realized with creative directions coupled with strong institutional policies to ensure that the project is sustainable and will continue to empower communities served by the university. This narrative serves as an inspiration of how collaborations of government, private and educational institutions can be a model for empowering communities and transforming lives.
