PACE inducts regional coordinators during Pinoy Media Congress 2026

The Philippine Association of Communication Educators (PACE) inducted its Regional Coordinators into office during the Pinoy Media Congress 2026, held on April 30, 2026, at Assumption College San Lorenzo.

PACE emphasized the need for stronger on-the-ground partners to better serve its members across different regions of the country. With communication educators working in varied institutional and regional contexts, Regional Coordinators play a key role in linking local concerns with national initiatives.

Regional Coordinators serve as the bridge between their regions and PACE’s national leadership. Their core role is to connect, coordinate, and represent by fostering relationships among local members and partners, helping organize events and training, recruiting and verifying members, and bringing regional voices into national decision-making.
