I have regarded myself as a person with neutral perspective on social issues until I became part of EILER. I feel that I have been more enlightened and empowered.
EILER has taught me to go beyond the desk research; that to immerse with the workers and understand their struggles is more important. Every experience made me a stronger woman.

Being an EILER intern was a fulfilling experience. What I have done and contributed to the organization paved way for my continuous growth and learning not just as a university student but as student of life.
I was given a special opportunity to take part in the institution’s advocacies: I was able to share my creative writing skills and fresh perspectives, while I become more familiar with the labor rights and grievances of workers. Being an EILER research intern encouraged me to join the struggle for social justice.

Ang mga karanasan ko nang naging intern ako sa EILER sa ilalim ng Gender and Labor program nito ay isa sa pinakamahalagang bahagi ng aking buhay. Marami akong napulot na aral mula sa mga hinaing at kwento ng mga maralita at manggagawang kababaihan.
Dahil sa internship program, namulat ako sa iba’t-ibang isyu ng lipunan, lalo na sa kalagayan ng mga manggagawang Pilipino. Nagkakaroon ako ng iba’t-ibang pagkakataon na makatulong sa kapwa ko, kahit maliit na bagay na kaya ko. Higit sa lahat, ang mga natutunan ko at matutunan ko pa sa EILER ay nagdudulot ng mabuting impluwensya sa aking pananaw at paninindigan.

Pinaigting ng aking internship sa EILER ang aking kamulatan, hindi lamang sa apat sa sulok ng opisina nito pati na rin sa mga usapin sa iba pang bahagi ng Pilipinas.
Ang pagkakataon na makatulong at marinig ang mga hinaing ng kapwa Pilipino ay isang karanasan na aking babaunin, magpakailanman.
Nang dahil sa aking mga natutunan mula sa EILER internship program, mas lumawak ang aking pananaw sa mga isyung panlipunan.

Ever since I became part of EILER, the institution has enlightened me regarding labor struggles. I was encouraged to go beyond my duties as research intern in order to understand the situations of the masses.
We did interact and communicate with members of communities to analyze their concrete conditions and what must be done to resolve these issues.
For me, to be part of EILER is an honor.
