Ezekiel Recto, LPTI am Angel Joy G. Cape, the youngest child among the 12 children of my parents who are both farmers. My parents’ occupation became one of my greatest inspirations to pursue Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Biotechnology at University of the Philippines Los Baños. Aside from being a university student, I am also a community volunteer and a member of Helping Humans Initiative, a community-based organization in Valencia City, Bukidnon, my hometown.

Aleeza TiongsonMoira is an undergraduate student of BA Anthropology at the University of the Philippines Diliman. Driven by her passion for service, she frequently engages in leadership and socio-civic positions in her different organizations as her way of serving the people. She was previously the Head of the UP Junior Marketing Association's University Relations team wherein she spearheaded IsKalinga – an advocacy campaign for jeepney drivers, support staff, and vendors in UP Diliman. Currently, she is the Secretariat Committee Head of the UP Anthropology Society where she leads the committee in creating the organization's publicity materials and in handling its social media branding.

Recognizing the unfamiliarity surrounding Anthropology, she hopes to introduce more people to this multifaceted discipline and encourage them to explore what the course has to offer. Equipped with learnings and perspectives from the field, she hopes to become an archaeologist who will help uncover the Philippines' buried past and recover history's secrets – one site at a time.

Ezekiel Recto, LPTI am Andrea Faye S. Mendoza from Samar and I am an BSED English Major from Samar State University. Other than being a student I am a volunteer teacher for less fortunate kids and Sunday school. a writer, singer, actress, and a youth leader. I always believe that communication is a context where peace and harmony can revolve, it is much more stronger and effective than bombs and guns.

I use my writings and singing to make a voice and to use these as my platform in addressing my advocacy for education, women and children, environment and gender equality. I always believe that everyone has a voice and when we all work together we can create a perfect harmony that will change the world.
