Last June 5, 2026, the Xavier University College of Law Association (XUCLA), in partnership with the Movement Against Disinformation, successfully conducted CAVEAT: Deconstruct the Deceit at AVR 1, Xavier University โ Ateneo de Cagayan. The event brought together participants from Liceo de Cagayan University, Xavier University โ Ateneo de Cagayan, the Gender and Development Office, Oro Christian Grace School, the University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines (USTP), and several walk-in participants for meaningful discussions on journalism, media literacy, misinformation, and accountability. Through the insightful lectures of Ms. Wydia Angga and Atty. Ernesto Neri, attendees gained a deeper understanding of the role of journalists, the challenges of combating misinformation, and the importance of truth-seeking in today's information landscape.
To complement the lectures, participants took part in an interactive workshop facilitated by Atty. Noelen JC Abaday, where they analyzed real-world scenarios and crafted news reports and headlines based on assigned situations involving misinformation and media reporting. The experience was further enriched by a patch booth activity, allowing participants to personalize their event tote bags while fostering creativity and engagement.
