This July 17–23, 2025, we proudly celebrate the 47th National Disability Week with the theme “Innovation for Inclusion: Building Inclusive Communities Together.” This year’s celebration emphasizes the transformative power of innovation in advancing disability rights.

From accessible technologies and assistive tools to inclusive education and forward-thinking policies, innovation is key to breaking barriers and creating opportunities for persons with disabilities. It is through these advancements that we can ensure every individual is empowered to live with dignity, independence, and equal access.

Let this week serve as a call to action for all sectors of society— government, private organizations, schools, and communities—to collaborate in building a more inclusive future. By fostering creativity, investing in inclusive solutions, and amplifying the voices of persons with disabilities, we take meaningful steps toward a world where everyone, regardless of ability, can thrive.

Together, let’s commit to building inclusive communities through innovation and unity.

July is National Blood Donors Month in the Philippines, as declared under Proclamation No. 1021, signed in 1997 by President Fidel V. Ramos.

It recognized blood donation as a “humanitarian act that has saved thousands of human lives” and called on Filipinos to “be inspired to emulate the men and women in our country who freely and voluntarily give part of themselves to help those in need of blood and its components.”
