The campus of De La Salle College of Saint Benilde buzzed with focus as more than twenty institutions converged for the 2025 National Student PR Congress and Grand Prix. Over two days, hallways that normally echoed with routine chatter pulsed with nervous preparation, strategy discussions, and the quiet determination of young communicators eager to prove their ideas could spark national conversations.

The competition challenged students to craft campaigns that were creative, strategic, socially responsible, culturally relevant, and capable of making a real impact. Each finalist carried months of effort: long nights refining campaigns, consultations with faculty mentors, and the pressure of presenting their ideas before the country’s most sought-after communication leaders—the best of the best in Philippine public relations.

When judges announced the top three teams, it was clear these campaigns were more than classroom exercises. They were ready for real-world deployment, each reflecting a distinct approach yet sharing a commitment to responsible storytelling. The winners showed that being unmuted today isn’t just about being heard—it is about communicating with clarity, empathy, and purpose, shaping the future of public relations in the Philippines.

GRAND PRIX CHAMPION: ABakaDawTotoo
De La Salle College of Saint Benilde, Antipolo

If there was one team that embodied what it means to be unmuted, it was the DLS–CSB Antipolo team — Abegail Pertes, Jade Del Rosario, AJ Rumbaua, Robin Cariño, Kurt Testado, Miguel Malveda, and Lance Melgarejo — who entered the Grand Prix with a mission anchored in urgency: to help rebuild public trust in credible journalism in an era of rising AI-driven misinformation.

Guided by Coach Viveca Singson, Professor Ijssel Menes, and School Head Dr. Arlyn Tumala, the team approached ABakaDawTotoo with the discipline of a young agency determined to make every insight count. “As Communication students ourselves, our campaign is driven by the need to strengthen and rebuild public trust in credible journalism, given the rising media distrust fueled by AI-driven fake news, and using the concept of Abakada to emphasize how the basics of literacy and education can help build more media-literate Filipinos,” they explained.

Their preparation was intensive. The team spent around three weeks developing the campaign paper—from brainstorming and research to writing—followed by less than a week of preparation in case they advanced to the Top 5 finalists. “The 15-minute presentation forced us to refine our content and focus on the strongest and most essential parts of our campaign: the story and the execution,” they shared. Balancing thesis deadlines and part-time work added to the challenge, but the team remained determined.

What truly distinguished their campaign was purpose. “Media literacy is more than a campaign; it’s a daily practice of critical thinking,” Abegail explained. “Small, consistent efforts can create ripple effects in how people discern information.” Their focus on foundational literacy and education set a clear, actionable direction that resonated with judges.

In closing, the team expressed gratitude for the platform the PRSP Congress provided. “Thank you so much for giving students a space where we can learn, share our skills, and showcase our creativity with excellence. For future participants: don’t be afraid to go the extra mile, embrace the process wholeheartedly, and remember that the biggest win comes from the learnings and experiences you gain along the way,” they said.

FIRST RUNNER-UP: PAMANA
University of the Philippines Los Baños

While Antipolo confronted misinformation with urgency, the students from UP Los Baños offered a reflective lens. Their campaign, PAMANA, told a quieter but compelling story: media and information literacy is not only technical—it is cultural, relational, and inherited.

The PAMANA team — John Noel Capistrano, Cris Jabriel Cruz, Alyssa Nicole Gonzales, Leana Renee Infante, Xyrelle Ormita, Allecxa Krishien Ramirez, and Nyvel Villanueva — drew inspiration from the rich heritage of the UPLB community and the idea of “home” for students far from their families. Their campaign showed that media literacy can start within households, bridging generational gaps while fostering critical thinking and awareness.

Guided by mentor Elizabeth Segura-Krueger, MA, and supported by Department Chair Liberty Nolarte-Balanquit, the team prepared their proposal in just one week. They balanced academic responsibilities and personal commitments while navigating the uncertainty of joining the competition as a group of friends. “Deciding to join was a hurdle at first,” they shared. “But this became both a learning experience and an opportunity to strengthen our bond while achieving something meaningful.”

PAMANA’s strength lay in its cultural fluency. While other teams tackled misinformation through tools or workshops, UPLB reminded audiences that understanding begins at home. Their campaign honored tradition while preparing families for a rapidly shifting digital world—a balance that left a lasting impression on judges. It emphasized that public relations is not only about strategy but also about heart: connecting with audiences begins by engaging one’s own community, reflecting empathy, dialogue, and cultural understanding that can ripple outward beyond the home.

Judges praised the team for clarity of message and depth of insight. Despite limited preparation time, PAMANA delivered a coherent and culturally resonant campaign that combined creativity, relational intelligence, and actionable recommendations.

“The core message of your PR plan is what truly connects with your audience,” the team reflected. By staying true to this principle, PAMANA demonstrated that impactful public relations is as much about understanding and connecting with people as it is about execution, earning them the distinction of First Runner-Up.

SECOND RUNNER-UP: Balik Aral, Bayanihan sa Digital Movement
De La Salle University, Dasmariñas

If Antipolo was bold and UPLB reflective, DLSU–Dasmariñas brought heart. The team behind Katha Kommunications — Marri Louise Batingal, Rovin Mnemosyne Buenaobra, Vaneah Jeanne Eupratan, Hannah Daniella Salazar, Jiza Camille Santiago, David John Miguel Suva, and Tenshi Tara — transformed the Filipino spirit of bayanihan into a communication strategy that bridged digital divides for communities often left unheard.

Under the mentorship of Isolde E. Valera, MAComm, and with support from Dean Edwin F. Lineses, the team envisioned learning as a shared act of uplift. “Our inspiration comes from people living on the margins. MIL can sound intimidating, so we aimed to bring MIL knowledge closer to the people, starting with our own community through a collective effort,” they explained.

Despite limited preparation time, the group’s discipline shone through. They conducted mock presentations the day before the Congress and again on competition day, refining their pitch with precision. “Time management was our biggest challenge,” Hannah shared. “But that pressure taught us resilience and teamwork.”

The campaign paired students with senior citizens as “MIL buddies,” forming intergenerational partnerships that made digital literacy feel less like a hurdle and more like a collaborative community project. “MIL isn’t just about sharing knowledge,” Marri Louise said. “It requires patience, empathy, and trust.”

Closing their campaign, the team shared a message that captured the spirit of the event: “We extend our gratitude to the organizers for cultivating a dynamic and inspiring environment that empowers young communication practitioners. To future participants, may you embrace the challenge of maximizing the power of communication as a lending hand, stay committed to your craft, and allow this experience to elevate your passion in communication — live, loud, and limitless.”

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE UNMUTED TODAY

Across the two-day Congress and Grand Prix, Unmuted revealed itself as more than a theme—it became the clearest picture of how the next generation understands communication.
In Antipolo, it meant choosing truth in a digital age crowded with misinformation.
In Los Baños, it meant turning knowledge into shared heritage and connection.
In Dasmariñas, it meant creating space for voices long overlooked.
Different approaches, one intention: to communicate with responsibility and purpose. These campaigns showed that being unmuted today isn’t about speaking louder—it’s about speaking with clarity, empathy, and intention. It’s the evolution of PR from simply informing to genuinely serving.
For seasoned practitioners, it was a reminder. For students, it was a promise.
They didn’t just present campaigns.
They presented what the future of PR can look like.
They are unmuted.
They are ready.
And they carry forward a profession that is braver, more thoughtful, and grounded in integrity.

MANILA, October 14, 2025 – The ANVIL Awards, the Philippines’ highest award-giving body in public relations, continues to stand as the benchmark for excellence in communication. For more than six decades, it has recognized campaigns that have created an impact across industries and communities. 

Now in its 61st year, the ANVIL remains steadfast in celebrating innovation and purpose in the field of communication. As PR continues to evolve with digital trends and social movements, its essence endures – rewarding campaigns that shape perception, drive trust, and inspire action. 

Empowering Practitioners Through Learning

To further empower professionals preparing their entries, the second “How to Package a Winning ANVIL Entry” session was held last October 2, 2025, gathering more than 90 participants from different industries, brands, and organizations. 

Led by Ana Ruby Pista, APR, Chair of the 61st ANVIL Awards, the session equipped the attendees with practical tips and insights on developing compelling submissions grounded in clarity, creativity, and measurable results. 

Pista walked the participants through key elements of a winning ANVIL entry: 

• Clear objectives that align with an organization’s mission
• Strategic insights and execution that connect the “why” to the “how” 
• Results and impact supported by credible data
• Strong storytelling that transforms reports into narratives resonating with both judges and audiences

“A winning campaign is more than just numbers and stats – it should tell a story,” Pista shared with the audience. “It must resonate with its audience and influence their lives, whether by instilling a positive sentiment in their minds, addressing their issues, or encouraging meaningful dialogue.”

Continuing a Legacy of Excellence

These principles mirror the qualities seen in some of the ANVIL’s most iconic campaigns through the decades – timeless examples of strategic communication that connect information, insight, and impact. From generation to generation, the ANVIL has celebrated the spirit of storytelling and purpose that defines the nation’s best communications. 

Looking Back at Historic Grand ANVIL Winners

The ANVIL Awards’ rich history highlights landmark campaigns that not only excelled in execution, but also shaped public consciousness and trust:

• The Manila Times (1963) for “The 1961 President Elections: Operation Quick Count,” an effort to promote transparency in elections. 
• San Miguel Corporation (1971) for “Polo Brewery Plant Anti-Pollution System,” among the first corporate campaigns to champion environmental responsibility.
• Meralco Foundation Center (1983) for “The Work Attitude Program,” which fostered productivity and professionalism among Filipino workers. 
• Del Monte Philippines (1989) for “Doomed or Die? Save the Philippine Eagle,” a CSR initiative that inspired national pride and environmental advocacy.

Each campaign demonstrated how powerful storytelling can drive sentiment, shape values, and create lasting social impact, proving that great PR and communications are not bound by time. 

Call for Entries

The call for entries for the 61st ANVIL Awards is open until November 15, 2025. Public relations professionals, corporations, and agencies are encouraged to submit their best campaigns through anvilawards.prsp.ph.

Each ANVIL Entry is more than a submission, it’s a story of purpose, creativity, and impact. As the ANVIL continues to honor the best in Philippine PR, it invites today’s communicators to carry forward a legacy built on trust, innovation, and meaningful connection.

The Public Relations Society of the Philippines (PRSP) condemns the use of fake social media accounts to actively spread disinformation and attack supporters of the Philippines’ claims over the West Philippine Sea.

During the April 24 hearing of the Special Committee on Philippine Maritime and Admiralty Zones, Senate Majority Leader Francis Tolentino bared an excerpt of a contract between a certain PR agency and the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines, which detailed the use of “dedicated keyboard warriors” for the “overall effectiveness of the issue management project.”

PRSP is a staunch advocate of communication based on honesty and integrity. While our role is to uphold and strengthen the reputation of our clients and organizations, this is not to be done at the expense of societal good.

We believe in the power of words and stories to shape public perception and opinion. As such, we exert utmost care and effort to ensure that we adhere to a set of ethical standards in the practice of our profession.

As an organization, PRSP does not condone acts rooted in fraud and deceit. We believe that the power of communication should be harnessed for the public good and we encourage our members to honor and observe our Code of Ethics and Professional Standards for the Practice of Public Relations, which contains, among others, the following:

1. Conduct our professional way of life with the interest of the public as our basic and primary guide;

2. Conduct our activities in full accordance with the accepted standards of trust, objectivity, accuracy, and good taste;

3. Uphold the rule of law and the dictates of public order, public policy, moral and good customs.

Unfortunately, not all communication practitioners are members of our organization, and thus are not guided by a code of ethics.

PRSP urges vigilance and calls on the authorities to act swiftly and decisively, ensuring a thorough investigation on cases of misinformation and disinformation that upholds the rule of law and due process.

Protect yourself and your brand against misinformation and disinformation. Learn about tools and strategies that you can use to better navigate this post-truth world.

Senate President Francis “Chiz” Escudero administers oath; encourages trustees to lead the charge in telling good stories about the country

PASAY CITY, Philippines —  The Board of Trustees of the Public Relations Society of the Philippines (PRSP) took their oath of office on March 26, led by Senate President Francis “Chiz” Escudero.

In a simple ceremony held at the Office of the Senate President, Senator Escudero enjoined the PRSP officers and trustees to never lose sight of the good that public relations (PR) practitioners can do for the country and its people.

“You are storytellers. You have the skills and the power to shape public perception and influence people’s behavior. May you never lose sight of the important role that you play in society. Use your knowledge and skills to tell the world about the good that the Philippines and Filipinos have to offer,” he said.

In response, PRSP President Ma. Luisa Sebastian, APR assured the Senate President that the organization remained committed to its purpose of using PR for good and in using PR to build a more inclusive society.

“The PRSP is here to advance the practice of PR in the Philippines. We are aware of the weight of our responsibility to society, and we commit to using our platforms and our voices for good. Through our programs, we aim to not only build the capabilities of our peers, but also ensure that they stay the course as ethical practitioners of our craft,” she said.

As PRSP president, Sebastian committed to prioritize engagement with the organization’s various stakeholders, to enable greater collaboration across different sectors.

“We will engage members by helping them develop competencies in different fields of PR and communication. We will engage partner organizations, local and international, so the learnings we can impart to our members and the industry are multi-faceted. We will engage students in PR and communication by mentoring them right from the start of their career journey,” she said.

This year’s priority programs include the development of a primer for the Anvil Awards, or the Oscars of PR, to make its guidelines more transparent and more attuned to industry and societal changes; further professionalization of the Accredited in Public Relations (APR) program, to encourage PR practitioners to aspire for the accreditation and help them on their journey; and the relaunch of the Students’ PR Congress, to inspire, motivate, and guide future PR practitioners even before they join the workforce.

Aside from those three items, the organization’s other programs include the National PR Congress, the Professional Development seminar series, outreach activities, and quarterly general membership meetings.

Supporting Sebastian in steering the organization this year are Ana Ruby Pista, APR, Vice President - Internal Affairs; Norman Agatep, APR, Vice President - External Affairs; Abigail Ho-Torres, APR, Treasurer; Franz Jonathan De La Fuente, Corporate Secretary; Paul Michael De Quiros, ARP, Internal Auditor; and trustees Joe Zaldarriaga, Steve Michael Moore, and Deivid Guian Rioferio, APR. Serving as advisers are immediate past president Andy Saracho, APR and Jika Dalupan, APR.

PRSP is the foremost organization of PR practitioners in the Philippines. Its mission is to steer the country toward progress while preserving its precious heritage and culture, serve affiliate organizations to the best of its abilities guided only by the highest ethical standards, and lead the way in the development, refinement, and dissemination of knowledge and skills of the profession in the entire Asia-Pacific region.

Manila, Philippines, 20 February 2025 – Ana Pista, the founder and CEO of Ardent Communications (ArdentComm), is issuing a call to action for PR and marketing professionals, as well as communication students: embrace the power of artificial intelligence.

Speaking at the UP College of Mass Communication’s “Caring for CMC, Conversations 2025” event last February 19, Pista championed the strategic integration of AI in public relations, emphasizing its crucial role in navigating the evolving media landscape.

The event, designed to foster dialogue and explore future possibilities in media and research, brought together students, academics, media professionals, and industry leaders.

During a dynamic panel discussion on Research, Data, and Analytics, Pista, alongside other industry experts, highlighted how data-driven insights, amplified by AI tools, are reshaping the way campaigns are being crafted and the narratives told.

The power of data at work

The panelists, which included Philip Tiongson, Data Science Director and Head of MX Havas Ortega; Chill Lampano, Senior Manager for Business Analytics and Research at Cignal TV; and Jonas Delos Reyes, First Vice President of Metrobank, shared real-world examples of how data is transforming their respective organizations.

Delos Reyes from Metrobank highlighted the increased accessibility of data and the shift towards automated analysis systems in the banking sector. “Banks have a lot of data, and we are slowly moving away from the traditional way of analyzing customer data and are now shifting to automated systems.”

Pista, for her part, shared that at ArdentComm, research and data are not just a starting point, but a continuous thread woven throughout the entire process.

“We start with research and end with more research,” she said. “Everything you do, especially in PR, should be backed up by data.”

Pista proceeded by sharing a compelling anecdote illustrating the power of AI-driven social listening and sentiment analysis. When a client information was inadvertently leaked, potentially jeopardizing an official announcement, ArdentComm leveraged AI tools to gauge public reaction.

Surprisingly, the analysis revealed excitement rather than outrage, ultimately leading to a surge in subscriptions. “AI is only as good as the data you put into it, and you must first carefully analyze the data before making connections,” Pista explained.

“It’s interesting that what was seemingly a crisis situation turned out to be an opportunity,” 
commented Kate Delos Reyes, the moderator of the session.

AI in the workplace: is it a good fit?

The panel also discussed how organizations and companies are adapting to the rise of AI and big data. Tiongson from Havas Ortega noted that clients are primarily concerned with effectiveness and efficiency, regardless of the specific tools used.

Pista added that proficiency in using AI tools is essential, as professionals are increasingly being measured by data-backed results. "If what we say is backed by data," she asserted, "our decisions are less likely to be questioned."

When asked how to upskill, Delos Reyes from Metrobank stressed the importance of ethical considerations in the age of AI, urging professionals to ground themselves in strong moral foundations.

“The more we live in a high-tech world, the more human we need to be,” concurred Kate Delos Reyes, the moderator.

Playing catch-up with AI

Pista recounted her experiences at the World Public Relations Forum 2024, where communication professionals from around the world grappled with the same question: how to effectively integrate AI?

She observed that while the application of AI varies across countries due to differing regulations, the Philippines is not necessarily behind. “Playing catch-up depends on regulations,” she shared, noting the existing Data Privacy Act in the Philippines and the more robust frameworks in Europe and the USA.

Despite these differences, Pista expressed confidence in the Philippines' ability to harness the power of AI.

“Those who are adept at navigating the digital world already possess the skills to use and leverage AI,” she affirmed. “At ArdentComm, we utilize over 20 different tools, ensuring our clients receive the most effective data-driven strategies for their campaigns.” With a smile, Pista concluded, “We're committed to staying at the forefront of innovation, ensuring our clients benefit from the transformative potential of AI.”
