Last month I had the privilege to interview Atty. Tony La Viña. I’ve known him for a number of years now. You see him being interviewed during elections and other political upheavals. But what really interested me to guest him on my podcast is his zest for life. Diagnosed with prostate cancer, he continues to live his life just as engaged, if not even more, as he used to. His short description goes something like this: Man from Mindanao who’s a thinker, lawyer, social entrepreneur, and teacher.But wait! Here are the rest: - Advocate for human rights, indigenous peoples and local communities, social accountability, good governance, environmental sustainability, and climate justice- Professor of law, philosophy, sustainability, politics, and governance in several universities, including those in Mindanao- Associate Director of the Manila Observatory and heads its Klima Center- Member of the Permanent Court of Arbitration, Chair of the Jurisprudence and Legal Philosophy Department of the Philippines Judicial Academy- Founding president of the Movement Against Disinformation (MAD)- Founding Chair of Mindanao Climate Justice Resource Facility - Founding Chair of the Mindanao Center for Scholarships, Sports, and Spiritualiy (MCS3).Of course, he’s the husband of Titay, and father to three sons. Join our conversation and learn about life from Tony Lavs.
