LOOK: Union Journalists of the Philippines (UJP - UP) kicked off annual ๐—•๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐—ž ๐—™๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—˜ campaign with Photo Exhibit, ๐˜”๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜”๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ช๐˜ฑ๐˜ข๐˜ต (MuMa).

๐—•๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐—ž ๐—™๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—˜ is an annual campaign organized by UJP-UP that aims to "raise awareness on the culture of impunity and media literacy". It is held every November in commemoration of the Ampatuan Massacre, where 32 journalists and media workers were killed in Maguindanao.

Their spotlight event, a photo journalism competition for high-school and college students, challenges individuals to tell stories otherwise left unseen to the public eye. It has been revived after six years with the theme โ€œ๐—ข๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜…๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฑ: ๐—ข๐—ป ๐—–๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜€ ๐—ฆ๐˜๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ด๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฃ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—œ๐—บ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒโ€, encouraging students to highlight the social injustices and class struggle amidst the continual grasps of corruption across the country.

This contest serves as a means to tell a story where words are not enough, especially when fake news and AI-generated content are more prevalent than ever. Through images of the ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ญ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ taken by ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ญ ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ, we are given a glimpse of people still fighting to capture the truth.

As of November 29, 2025, the contest has officially concluded, with the winners being announced at ๐—•๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐—ž ๐—™๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—˜โ€™s awarding ceremony and their page.

The UP Parser is an official media partner of ๐—•๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—”๐—ž ๐—™๐—ฅ๐—˜๐—˜ ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฑ

๐Ÿ“ฃ | UP Students Walk Out vs. Alleged DPWH Corruption, Budget Cuts

On September 12, 2025, the UP Diliman Student Council led students and faculty in wearing black and walking out in protest to oppose corruption and demand proper budget allocation for education.

Amid reports of Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) contractors involved in corruption, we are reminded that every peso misused is a peso taken away from schools, scholarships, and the future of Filipino students.

The walkout was not only a call to action but also a statement: students and faculty pushing back against the misuse of public funds and calling for an education budget that truly serves the people.

More than a walkout, it was a stand. Against corruption. For education. For a future we can trust.
