Students from Howon University in Korea and Central Philippine University learned from one another during an outreach activity at Asilo de Molo.

On June 28, 2019, 10 senior college students from the Social Work Department enrolled in Seminar in Social Work and Field Instruction joined with 25 university students from Howon University, South Korea in an outreach activity at Asilo de Molo.

The activity aimed at delivering social welfare services to around 50 residents of the home for the aged in Iloilo City. Prof. Carol Kay Blando and Prof. Joel Galicia, faculty members of the Social Work Department interacted with the professors from Howon University. Both expressed their gratefulness for activities such as this where CPU students are given the chance to interact with foreign peers.

These social Work students from diffrent races and diffrent languages are all in agreement to serve people with all their heart.

Similarly, Howon University is thankful to CPU, as well as Metro Korea Language Training Center, for the opportunity. The interaction with peers from South Korea continued where CPU students and faculty were treated to a dinner at a Korean restaurant.
