The College of Business Education (CBE), Nueva Vizcaya State University (NVSU) proudly celebrates the Universityโs recognition during the 35th Anniversary Celebration of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) Region II on September 2, 2026, at NGN Gran Hotel, Tuguegarao City, Cagayan.
NVSU received a Plaque of Recognition for its unwavering commitment to BJMPRO-IIโs thrusts, programs, and activities, highlighting the Universityโs continuing efforts in research, extension, community engagement, and livelihood development for Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs).
Among the initiatives contributing to this partnership is โBridging Bars to Markets: Enhancing Market Access for PDL-Crafted Livelihood Products,โ led by Dr. Renalee V. Valenzuela in partnership with DTI. The project produced key outputs such as product branding, trademark registration with IPOPHL, a product catalogue, promotional videos, and a policy output to strengthen the market access and sustainability of PDL-crafted products.
Its continuation, โBridging Bars to Markets Phase II,โ has also been approved through NVSU Board of Regents Resolution No. 02-03-028, s. 2026, alongside โEmpowering PDLs through Sustainable Livelihood and Capability Building,โ led by Ms. Flormelyn D. Tumenez, with Dr. Valenzuela as project proponent.
For the CBE, this recognition symbolizes the power of research, innovation, and extension in creating meaningful opportunities for empowerment, livelihood development, and community reintegration.
