National Conferences

Turning ‘gold’ with RAP is essentially what happened to me. For literally, I was born on the same year as this association. As RAP turned 50 last year, I also turned half a century of existence. It is a year of jubilee – planned for more than a year with excitement and devotion by our luminaries and the current board. However, the pandemic struck the whole world which brought us locked down in the confines of our homes. Our grand plan is not what the greater scheme has willed for us for the game changer called COVID-19 devastated our plans.

The Reading Association of the Philippines gathered more than 250  educators from all over the world with speakers, presenters, and participants coming from Asia and North America. The three-day international conference was made possible in partnership with Rex Education.
