TRAC Criminology Faculty Attend 1st Asian Biennial Conference on Forensic and Legal Linguistics

The Tawi-Tawi Regional Agricultural College (TRAC), through the Department of Criminology, participated in the 1st Asian Biennial Conference organized by the Philippine Association for Forensic and Legal Linguistics (PAFLL) in partnership with Bukidnon State University (BukSU). The College was represented by three faculty members, namely Dean Ryxon L. Hamsan, RCrim, MCJE Alchwarizmi B. Abubakar, LPT, MAEd and Dave Collin N. Mandi, RCrim, MCJE. The event was held at the BukSU Audio-Visual Center, Malaybalay City, Bukidnon.

The conference convened experts, scholars, and practitioners to examine the critical intersections of language, law, and justice within Asian legal systems. Discussions focused on the role of language in integrating Indigenous Peoples’ legal traditions, the importance of linguistic analysis in preserving oral customs and dispute-resolution practices, and the contribution of forensic linguistics in addressing conflicts involving Indigenous communities. The event also emphasized the need for equitable representation of Indigenous languages in legal processes and highlighted the value of interdisciplinary collaboration among linguists, legal professionals, policymakers, and Indigenous leaders.

TRAC’s participation underscores the College’s commitment to advancing criminological education, Indigenous justice, and evidence-based practice through academic engagement and professional development. The Department of Criminology and the entire TRAC delegation extend their deepest gratitude to the College President, Dr. Hja. Sitti Amina J. Mohammad, for her steadfast support and commitment to empowering faculty development initiatives that enable meaningful academic engagement and professional growth.
