ABOUT THE IPC
The Institute of Philippine Culture (IPC) is a multidisciplinary research organization of the School of Social Sciences of Ateneo de Manila University. Established in 1960 by Fr. Francis Xavier Lynch, S.J., an anthropologist, it advances the University?s mission and goals by generating knowledge that helps deepen the understanding of cultures and societies; improve the quality of life of disadvantaged groups; and build a more peaceful, just, and equitable society in the Philippines and the rest of the world.? The fulfillment of the IPC?s goals is anchored on research, the major focus of its activities. Two other principal areas of competence emanate from this knowledge base: capability building, and knowledge dissemination. With these interrelated pursuits using multidisciplinary perspectives, it is able to respond to academic and social development needs.
ABOUT THE DSA
The Department of Sociology and Anthropology is a unit of the School of Social Sciences, Loyola Schools, Ateneo de Manila University. It was founded in 1960 by a Jesuit anthropologist, Fr. Frank X. Lynch, S.J. It trains its students to use sociological and anthropological perspectives in the analysis and interpretation of contemporary issues, the pressing ones being the tension between globalization and national integration, the inequalities in access to power and resources among different groups, and the consequences of these forces on cultures and identities. In this training aim, the Department expects its students to acquire a critical sense of the social world. Students, in turn, can use this ability to examine phenomena with social rigor, to assess contending ideologies of social change, to offer alternative narratives on tradition, modernity and social change, and to make workable solutions that enhance people?s welfare.
