This year’s theme, “𝗥𝗲𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝗜,” highlights one of the most pressing challenges and opportunities of our time: the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into public governance.

Celebrated every September pursuant to Malacañang Proclamation No. 247 issued in 2002, DPRM underscores the vital role of policy research in national development and nation-building. The observance highlights the importance of evidence-based policymaking—utilizing data and research to develop plans, policies, and programs that effectively address the country’s socioeconomic challenges.

Over the years, NEUST has actively contributed through various research initiatives and conferences that support these goals.
