What happened in the two-day training?

Here is a visual synopsis of our two-day Cross Border Training of Trainers on the topic of “Cross Border Capacity Development on Reintegration Readiness – Reintegration and Financial Planner.” Overseas Filipinos from Quezon City, Philippines, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Riyadh, Jeddah, and Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia, as well as other cities in Saudi Arabia, were present at the hybrid workshop.

The cross border training was a resounding success and offered our OFWs invaluable ideas on how to better prepare for reintegration and organize their finances. We are delighted to see so many OFs coming not only from the Philippines but also from other areas of the Middle East to participate in this vital cross border training and workshop.

We’d like to extend our gratitude to Ms. Estrella Mai Dizon-Anonuevo, who served as the primary moderator for the event that lasted for two days. She is a member of the Board of Trustees of the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration in addition to serving as the chairman of Atikha Overseas Workers and Communities Initiative, Inc., where she is also the development consultant for the International Labor Organization. Additionally, I would like to extend my gratitude to Atty. Don Albert Philippe Pangcog, who serves as the Assistant Labor Attaché for the Department of Migrant Workers in Qatar, as well as Mr. Nestor Burayag, who serves as the Welfare Officer for the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration in Qatar.

I would like to express my gratitude to the Department of Migrant Workers and MWO-OWWA Riyadh for the opportunity to serve as the moderator and co-facilitator for the Riyadh team during this cross border training program that lasted for two days. The Cross Border Training of Trainers on Reintegration Readiness was concurrently engaged in by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Jeddah, and Bahrain, and was spearheaded by DMW Philippines. The event was hosted at Crown Palace Hotel and ended during the past weekend. That really is quite an honor.

Thank you to everyone else in the Migrant Workers Office in Riyadh for all your hard work. That was a fantastic opportunity for all of us trainers to increase our knowledge.

Thank you, Atty. Hans Cacdac is the Undersecretary for Welfare and Foreign Employment at the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. Asec Venecio Legaspi is the Assistant Secretary for Reintegration. M’ Mai Dizon A. is the ILO Project Consultant. M’ Aileen Constantino P. is the Executive Director of ATIKHA.
