The BU-CSSP Department of Peace Studies in observance of the month-long celebration of National Peace Consciousness organized a series of activities in order to promote awareness of the need to promote a culture of peace. The Volunteers for Peace, an organization of students in the department sponsored the "Adopt a Child for a Day Project. " The VFP invited a group of Children from Burgos in the Municipality of Daraga in Albay Province. The organization tendered a party for the children. Aside from the party the children were also treated to a story telling time. For this purpose the VFP invited Prof. Marcia Rico of the College of Education and Prof. Ruby Ann Ayo to serve as story tellers. Stories that revolving around the culture of peace were the focal point. Children love to hear stories. This is also a powerful tool of enculturation.
