Meaning, have a long-term vision" // Meet Caroline Mangosing, Diwata of Community: Founder and former executive director of @kapisanan, designer of @vinta_to, as well as an actor pushing for Filipina representation in film - all of Caroline's work centers on uplifting and bringing attention to Filipinx community and culture.

[9 MUSES // Created in collaboration with Jodinand Aguillon as part of his arts residency at Pineapple Lab and shot on location in Manila, PH. Inspired by the "Siyam na Diwata ng Sining/Nine Muses of the Arts" sculpture by Napoleon Abueva at UP Diliman and goddess/oracle cards, this series re-envisions modern Pilipina muses as "Diwata Cards" which can be pulled for words of advice for those seeking inspiration.]

BBC News: Filipin[a] Nanny

Josie Pingkihan shares her life as an overseas nanny in Hong Kong through her comments and photos from her daily life.

At first, it seems like a safe approach, but then the last slide drives the harm home. Also, I like how she mentions how little the Philippine government is doing to create domestic jobs.
