The student sector will organize an event at the Ayala Terraces tomorrow evening in its advocacy to end the growing problem of cyber-trafficking in Metro Cebu.
“This is the first to be held outside of school. Last year, the activity was at the University of the Philippines Cebu,” said Jules Bungcaras, Community Mobilization for Churches and Students coordinator of International Justice Mission (IJM) Cebu.
With the theme “iMove.iStop,” the event aims to end human trafficking and make justice happen.
The event is presented by IJM, an international human rights organization and United Nations Children’s Fund.
Bungacaras said the student sector felt the need to inform the community about the increasing problem of cyber-trafficking in Metro Cebu, and to prevent and end the problem.
“It is also a way to recruit students to join the movement of justice advocates in their school,” he added.
The event will be participated by by the Justice Advocates from UP Cebu, St. Theresa’s College-Cebu, University of the Visayas, Cebu Doctors’ University, University of San Carlos, Cebu Institute of Technology University and Cebu Normal University.
Bungcaras said the audience can expect performances of students from UP, STC, USC and UV, local band Apple and the Worms and guest artist Kitchie Nadal.
The event will also be hosted by IJM Ambasadresses and crowning ladies of Miss Cebu, Mia Ali Faridon, Siane Maynard and Isa Eguia.
The event is free to the public. /STC Intern Tweeny Malinao
