On January 22, ASEZ members held the RCT School at Ireneo Santiago National High School located in General Santos, South Cotabato, the Philippines. More than 200 people attended the event, including the General Santos Police Chief and the Deputy Mayor of General Santos as well as Ireneo Santiago National High School students and teachers.

At 10 a.m., the RCT School education began with an ASEZ member’s presentation. The speaker presented a variety of subjects over ten lectures concerning the importance of human rights and the elements necessary for preventing verbal abuse. The speaker aimed to instill upright behavior and respect for life into the students. After the lecture, ASEZ emphasized the importance of youths’ role in making a crime-free world, by providing practical education as part of crime prevention measures.

Deputy Mayor Rosalita T. Nunez supported ASEZ’s global activities and pledged to participate in ASEZ activities, saying, “When people change, the world can change, too.”

RCT School is part of the ASEZ education programs designed to reduce crime. It aims to assist children and youths, the future leaders, to practice and lead crime prevention activities with developing good character. On January 30, ASEZ members in Quezon City, the Philippines, urged university students of their age to join them in reducing crime through the RCT campaign, at the National University in Manila.
