FR. TITO CALUAG LEADS CIVIC DISCUSSION IN NEW SHOW “PROYEKTO PILIPINO”

Father Tito Caluag takes the lead in discussing local history, culture, and civics in the new show “Proyekto Pilipino: Mga Talakayan sa Sibika at Pulitika ni Fr. Tito Caluag at Tropa,” which is set to air on Jeepney TV beginning Sunday (Feb.6), 6 pm.

“The show seeks to explain the entire voting process and how relevant it is to our democratic space and in the coming elections,” the professor-spiritual adviser said.

Joining Fr. Tito in this weekly discussion are distinguished historians and thinkers—Manolo Quezon III, Dr. Leloy Claudio, and Carlo Santiago. Manolo is a TV host, writer, and former Undersecretary of the Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office. Leloy is a cultural historian, author, and professor at the Department of South and Southeast Asian Studies at UC Berkeley who recently led the Rappler video series “Basagan ng Trip.” Carlo is a writer, entrepreneur and member of the Anastacio Institute, a non-profit organization devoted to the understanding and appreciation of the Filipino experience through storytelling.

A public affairs program done with the Conscience Collective, “Proyekto Pilipino” will feature discussions about historical events and current issues to build a culture of valuing and understanding and help Filipino citizens in discerning their rights and obligations in the upcoming polls. Conscience Collective is a non-profit organization established by Fr. Tito with Manolo, Leloy, and Carlo that aims to engage in partnerships and projects that contribute to an indelible, pervasive, and continuing transformative change championed by a consciousness of conscience.

The first episode of “Proyekto Pilipino” will talk about the significance of the youth vote and give an overview of the electoral process and a recap of what transpired in 2021 leading to the 2022 elections.

Upcoming episodes will zero in on the roles and responsibilities of the Philippine president, vice president, and senators as well as those in the local posts. The show will also tackle other topics such as the role of media in an election and how faith, morals, and politics go together.

“Proyekto Pilipino” airs on Jeepney TV (SKYcable channel 9, GSAT channel 55, and Cignal channel 44) every Sunday at 6 pm with replay on Mondays at 6:30 am. The show will also air on SKY cable every Friday at 7 pm and every Saturday and Sunday at 3 pm. It will be streaming on the Conscience Collective Philippines YouTube channel on Thursdays at 7 pm.
