As we inspire to recharge and rebranding the performance of MSU IPDM Marawi, MSU IPDM Marawi had its teambuilding on August 3-4, 2024, at Serenity Hills Resort, Davao del sur. One of the agenda in the teambuilding is a visualization of the strategic planning with its goal to revisit the vision, mission and goals of the institute and inclusive of defining IPDM GAD Agenda and refocusing on the deliverables of the three core programs of MSU IPDM Marawi which are Peace Research, Peace Education and Peace Action. After the presentation of accomplishments of the focal person of the three mandates, the realization of not only a conduit effort but also collaboration has taken place.
Reassessing what IPDM now has been a discourse and a deep conversation of what we can devise has been a center of the common goals between a short- and long-term planning considering the issues and concerns and risks opportunity of the Institute. Finding the core between the three programs has been difficult as well establishing the niche, therefore, settling on the proper framework made it harder. The trend is one philosophy has given direction to the values of MSU IPDM Marawi. And it becomes more advantageous when the session was marked by its success and productivity, making significant contributions to the university’s mission to evolve into a National Peace University.
