Amidst the national observance of a special working day as declared by Proclamation No. 727, the University of Northern Philippines commemorates the 39th anniversary of the 1986 People Power Revolution. UNP President Erwin Cadorna has declared February 25th as an Alternative Learning Day, allowing the university community to reflect on the significance of this pivotal moment in Philippine history.
The commemoration honors the heroes and martyrs, and the Filipino spirit paving the way for the restoration of democracy. As Filipinos remember the spirit of unity and courage that defined the EDSA Revolution, UNP encourages its students and faculty to engage in meaningful discussions and activities, ensuring that the lessons of the past continue to inspire future generations.
The Alternative Learning Day serves as a reminder to safeguard democratic values and uphold the principles of freedom and justice.
